Bookmaking:
Making a book is a great way to organize photographs and create a portable work of art. You will choose a theme, select and edit your images, create a sequence, write an artist statement, and then layout your book. Students can purchase a scrapbook-style photo album and insert printed images into it or layout the book on their computer and have it printed. We will discuss which styles and formats best display your images. If students choose to have their book printed online two suggested printers are Blurb.com or iphoto. It is highly recommended that students come to the first class with a series of images or a particular project in mind.
I think it's best if everyone works together on blurb, unless anyone has a strong preference to make their book by hand or in iphoto. Blurb has an online layout system so you can access your book at home and from the computers at University Settlement. If you have a moment you can check it out:
Here is the blurb website:
If you are working on your own laptop and bringing it with you, you can download their software here:
If you want to work with the online system that you can access anywhere you can look at it here:
We will work out the schedule together depending on if we will meet 6 or 8 weeks.
