Question

1. Be able to fully describe each photograph – breaking it down into its component parts. What can you actually see in the photograph? Use descriptive adjectives to talk about color, tone, contrast, quality of light, composition, frame, subject, subject matter, medium, and presentation if relevant. Use visual elements and principles of design vocabulary.[from chapter2 pdf]

 

2. Be able to articulate interpretations with support from the photograph and any contextual (original context, internal context, or external context) information you might be privy to. [from chapter 5 pdf (pg56-63)

 

3. Be able to categorize a photograph given what you see depicted in the photo and including any extra contextual information you might be given. Explain your reasoning for why a photograph might fit best in this or that category, or possibly why it might fit in more than one. (Descriptive, explanatory, interpretive, ethically evaluative, aesthetically evaluative, or theoretical) [chapter 5 pdf](pg64-65)

 

4. After addressing the above, discuss what theoretical framework you might use to evaluate or most accurately understand the given photograph through and why. ( Marxist, feminist, multiculturalist, queer, postcolonial)[chapter7 pdf](pg89-91) and chapter2(pg30)
