Photography
The study of photography means different things to different people. Many people consider it an exciting hobby while others wish to make a career out of their passion for photography. The photography program at NSCC prepares students with the skills necessary to achieve their photographic goals.
Creative image making requires a strong foundation in the technical skills, techniques and equipment used to achieve the desired image. Our curriculum teaches the necessary skills of camera operation (35mm film, digital, medium and large format,) lighting, portraiture, digital image editing, composition, darkroom, digital printing techniques and more.
With the recent advancements in digital technology, the profession of photography has undergone many changes. The faculty at NSCC has responded to the changes by constantly reviewing the curriculum to help ensure that our students are receiving an education with a strong foundation in both the time honored traditional and most current digital technologies.
Students can earn either a Technical Certificate in Photography or an Associate of Applied Science Degree in Visual Communications with a concentration in Photography. The photography program at NSCC prepares students to work as lab technicians, photographer’s assistants, commercial, staff or studio photographers.
