I thought you were in school for photography?
Core academic and non-photo Art classes (drawing, sculpting etc) the first 3.5 years. Most schools around here only have 4-5 photo related classes, only one of which is film related.Quote:

Strange. Midsize state school here and there's much more film-related courses. Yes in the BFA you can't "specialize" in one area but one could reasonably take a photo course every semester if they wished.Quote:

No regrets, I had giant holes in my education and still do, if I could I would either attend or teach classes for the rest of my days, but that's an impossible dream.
Working at a university it is really nice to know all the faculty and be able to just join in on classes whenever I want. We actually have a program here that we can attend classes for free as employees and get regular credits and such. I think most schools have that. My girlfriend got her Master's free of charge taking night/weekend classes for a couple of years.Quote:

Whats the camera Alex? and what is the big chunk of brass on the end of it??
My current LF (or near LF) cameras. I love using the Graflexes and the TP. I only use the MPP for stuff requiring full movements, whilst the Tailboard camera needs some restoration.
In order, Graflex Speed Graphic [3¼×4¼] (I use a 6x9 back); Thornton Pickard Ruby Reflex [1/4 Plate] (also used with a 6x9 film back);Graflex Anniversary Speed Graphic [4x5]; MPP Micro Technical MK VII [4x5]; FKD Reisekamera (taiboard) [5x7]
