The School of Communication & the Arts seeks adjunct instructors in Video and Photography for on campus courses in the Spring 2022 term, which runs from January 18 to May 11, 2022.

Lasell is requiring Covid vaccination for all students, staff and faculty.  The courses are both face-to-face classes that are already scheduled.

Photography for Design, Mondays & Wednesday 12:30 PM - 1:45 PM

This course emphasizes graphic design workflows that use photography as key elements of design. Students will deepen their understanding of shooting for design outcomes, exploring product shot staging and lighting, working with models, props and sets. In turn, they will add to their image editing, compositing and layout skills by working with their photos using a powerful digital toolset.

Video Production, Mondays & Wednesdays 9:30AM – 10:45AM

This course introduces students to the basics of video production from an EFP (Electronic Field Production) perspective. Students will learn the functionality and art of digital videography and digital editing by completing a roll test, editing project, photojournalism package, and a TV commercial. The course will also examine the business of video production. Finally, this course introduces students to the competency of visual communication.
