Angela Harden's Proposal

The purpose of enrolling in Photography 2 is to end the semester with a 20 print portfolio ready for submission to the Tisch Program at New York University. I intend to complete a Bachelor's Degree in Fine Arts then work in the field of photography.
From January to May 2008 I want to further develop as a photographer by; conducting night shots, expanding my knowledge of filter use for the camera as well as in the darkroom, and experiment with using a flash.
My work, thus far, has been greatly influenced by my move from New York City to Texas. I expect that my work will continue to reflect my Texan surroundings and that I will be further influenced from exposure to more photography at Houston Center for Photography, where I am an intern.
For my portfolio I plan to include photographs from three different cameras. I will be using a Nikon N70 SLR, a Yashica Mat EM TLR, and for one print I will be using a polaroid camera.
In order to demonstrate my ability as a photographer my subjects are going to vary throughout the semester. I plan to photograph landscapes, portraits, and any subject that I find artistically appealing. In my portfolio I am also going to include one hand colored photograph.
My main goal is to further educate myself and bring my photography to a higher level.
