Some Suggestions on Photography Teaching in Art Colleges

The development of science and technology has brought mankind into the digital age. The advent of the digital age has brought subversive challenges to photography technology. How to train photographers to meet the development needs of the digital age? Where should the photography course of art design major go under the impact of the digital age? The following are my suggestions on photography teaching in art colleges, hoping to help you.

We can't ignore the teaching of traditional photography techniques. With the development of high-tech photography, technical problems seem to be easier to solve than before, and its technical development tends to be an extension of the fool's trajectory. The arrival of the digital age is undoubtedly a subversive challenge to traditional photography teaching.

The collision between traditional teaching mode and modern teaching mode is the primary problem facing photography education today. With the new photo shooting and processing methods, many teachers and students are reluctant to work hard on the basis of photography. The high automation of the camera makes photography so simple that almost everyone can take pictures, and photography seems to be getting simpler and simpler. Today, with the emergence of new technologies, how to continue and develop traditional photography education is a new topic in photography teaching. The author believes that photography teaching should guide students to accept new technologies, strengthen traditional and basic education, lay a solid foundation for photography and adapt to the development and changes of the times, so as to produce good photography works.

Mark of Milwaukee Regional Technical College, USA? Professor Saxon said: Students must first complete the traditional photography course as a prerequisite for learning digital photography, and then they can take the digital photography class. ? He formed an organic connection between traditional photography technology and digital imaging technology. Teacher Xie Bai of Nanjing University said at the Third Dalian Photography Theory Seminar hosted by People Photography. The digital camera has just changed a film. ? Mr. Wu Jiabao, Dean of the Stone Ball Photography Art College in Taiwan Province Province, China, believes that in the digital age, more and more students need to know the essence of images, and the black and white darkroom just plays such a role. ?

The traditional black-and-white darkroom technology also plays a very important role in cultivating students' visual relationship. The author thinks that the black and white darkroom has a lot of room for manual production and adjustment. After strict black and white darkroom training, (turn to page 93) (continued from page 54) not only learned the basic knowledge of darkroom, but also trained the keen visual discovery ability and processing ability. From this perspective, this is irreplaceable by other means.

Increasing the proportion of digital imaging technology in teaching With the appearance of digital imaging technology and the rapid development of digital photographic equipment, people are surprised to find that digital cameras will replace traditional cameras just around the corner. Nikon also decided to stop producing film cameras in early 2006 and enter the digital age. Four months later, Canon also stopped the production of traditional cameras. Leica, as the representative of 135 traditional camera, also embarked on the digital road at the end of 2006. Kodak, the global traditional imaging giant, also announced that it would abandon its traditional film business and pin its future on the digital product market. This reflects to some extent that students will no longer use traditional cameras for film imaging in the future.

Compared with traditional cameras, the advantages of digital cameras are obvious: the imaging effect can be seen at that time, which saves extra expenses such as buying film and developing, so the transmission and storage are very convenient. Not only that, the design of digital cameras is becoming thinner and more fashionable, and its functions are becoming more and more powerful. With the great convenience of using digital cameras, people's attitudes towards digital cameras have gradually changed. Under this background, the setting of photography course must be reformed accordingly, and the proportion of digital imaging technology in photography course should be increased to make photography teaching adapt to the development of the times and the progress of science and technology. In the United States, digital imaging has long been included in professional photography courses.

Or pay attention to the cultivation of photography art? Photography is painting with light? . As a student majoring in art design, the key to learning photography is to combine it with students' majors, and strengthen the cultivation of students' innovative thinking and the training of creative consciousness in the actual teaching process. Give full play to professional characteristics in photographic composition and color composition, improve artistic accomplishment, and truly digest and absorb photography for your own use.

The function of education is to cultivate talents, develop science and technology and serve the society. The development of photography technology will inevitably lead to the reform of photography education. How to embody the characteristics of the digital age in the photography teaching of art design specialty is the key to improve the photography teaching according to the professional characteristics. Realizing the digitalization of photography course is the real way out for teaching reform. In the face of the development of photography art in the new century, in order to improve the teaching quality and school-running effect of photography education, photography classes must set training objectives and make teaching plans based on new science and technology to meet the requirements of the development of the times, so as to cultivate more high-level talents to serve the society.

Traditional photography includes shooting, developing and making. Adams, a famous photographer, thinks these three points are the signs to measure the success of a photo. With the rapid popularization of digital cameras in recent years, it is self-evident that digital technology has become the mainstream in various communication fields. The cost of building an electronic darkroom is much less than that of building a color darkroom, and the electronic darkroom will be the mainstream of future development.

In addition, more and more students use digital cameras. In addition to the advantages of vertical shooting and vertical display, digital photography has a lot of free processing space. Without darkroom, photos can be further processed and even artistically processed by using computers and appropriate software. Computer production and electronic darkroom technology have become one of the important means for the success of many photographic works. We should have a more forward-looking vision, lay a solid foundation for the future digital space, and cultivate talents that meet the needs of modern photography.
