SUMMARY:Creating Your Self-Published Photobook with Karen Davis (Online)
DESCRIPTION:In this workshop\, you will be guided through the conception\,
  creation\, and completion of your photobook (via a print-on-demand
  (POD) self-publishing platform.) You will also receive information on
  other options for publishing your book. 
 
 In preparing for this course\, you will determine the subject of your
  photobook and identify some of the images you expect to include and
  possible text. 
 
 To begin\, we will examine a book's structure and see examples of
  classic and contemporary photobooks. Through presentations\,
  discussions\, critiques\, and assignments\, you will work to refine
  your idea/subject\, edit and sequence images\, and select/compose any
  accompanying text. We will look at examples of layout\, design\,
  typography\, how text and images can work together\, and book
  features\, including format\, size\, binding\, and paper--all in the
  service of creating your photobook. An annotated hot-link bibliography
  is provided to extend research into most topics. 
 
 The final class will be held after everyone has received their
  photobook from the printer (two to three weeks later). This class will
  include photobook presentations\, discussion of expectations and
  results\, and your experience working with POD. We will end by
  celebrating your significant achievement.
