Level: College Prep
Grades: 10, 11, 12Credit: 1
Prerequisite: Successful completion of Visual Media – Intro to Photography or Photography I or teacher recommendation

Photography I and II are two different course levels with separate curriculums, combine into the same block. Each level will focus on diving deep into the production model, working in a crew, and skills to work as a freelance photographer.

Photography I takes the next steps from Intro to Photo and brings students into a full production model for professional photography. Covering composition, lighting, directing, and color correction, students will take their introductory knowledge of photography and apply it to projects that go from pre-production to production to post-production.

Photography II is a fast-paced project course where students will spend all of their time designing, shooting, and editing photos to match the assigned clients from diverse sectors. By the end of Photo II, students will have the skills to conceptualize, create, and present professional photography albums from start to finish.

Articulated college credit is available through Lakes Region Community College (LRCC), and dual enrollment college credit is available through Southern Maine Community College (SMCC).

Students who earn ‘Completer’ status in this program may receive up to eight (8) college credits at Keene State College (KSC).
