CRITIQUE: B & W (Portraits, Landscapes, Buildings and Abstract ONLY) ERIC HATCH BIO: Eric K. Hatch, Ph.D, has lived in the Cincinnati area since 1974. He has had six careers: teaching, writing, communications management, organizational development consulting, and photography. As a fine art and travel photographer, Eric has won numerous awards and competitions. He has served on the board of the SW Ohio chapter of Professional Photographers of America, and he is currently Editor at Exhibitions Without Walls. His one person show, “Hard Times for These Times,” has concluded its run at the Middletown Arts Center. It was followed by “Faces of Addiction” (5 showings to date). Next in line is “Active Geology.”
PRESENTATION: ART OF THE PROJECT Let’s say you’re pretty good photographer and want to move up a notch. One way to help you to that is to start a photography project.
A photography project is an organized body of material, shot over a period from days to decades, consistent in quality, fiidelity to the purpose, and in certain aspects of style.
Working on a project has a number of benefits for you, the photographer. 1. It keeps your energy up 2. It encourages you to develop greater technical and artistic skills 3. It requires you to sort the sheep from the goats — you can only have a limited number in your project, but you may have shot thousands of images that might qualify. This forces you to think about your work in a new way and with greater objectivity than you may have had before.
Eric will help you choose a subject, set goals, and give you some tips on organizing material. We’ll look at three of his own projects. With luck, yiou’ll leave with something new to help you grow.
