Temple University _ Digital Photography Course, 2024
Temple University, Digital Photography Course, 2024
Prof. Fabio BarilariIn questi anni, tra gli altri, sto insegnando fotografia digitale alla Temple University di "Philly" - Philadelphia.
Si tratta di un corso di base e una buona parte degli studenti che sceglie di seguirlo ha una conoscenza della fotografia che non va oltre i post su Instagram: i temi sono sostanzialmente quelli legati principalmente al settaggio manuale della macchina fotografica, la combinazione di sensibilità ISO, tempo di esposizione e apertura del diaframma, profondità di campo e lunghezza focale, postproduzione. Ma affrontiamo anche una serie di temi che hanno connessioni dirette con la pittura e altre espressioni di arte per le quali Roma presenta un contesto e un potenziale di analisi senza confronti: composizione colore, contrasto, luce ed ombra, trasparenze e riflessi, ritratto e gradi di astrazione.
Alla fine dei conti, si tratta sempre di processo creativo e mezzo di espressione personale, interpretati attraverso lo strumento della macchina fotografica invece del colore steso sulla tela.
Ho apprezzato particolarmente il gruppo di studenti di questa classe: nei corsi si creano delle alchimie, in alcune occasioni, che non si sa neanche bene da dove nascano, ma che si traducono sempre anche in risultati molto interessanti.
Questi nella foto sopra sono loro e quella qui sotto è una selezione dei loro bellissimi scatti:

In recent years, among the others, I have been teaching digital photography at Temple University, "Philly" - Philadelphia.
It is a
basic course and a good part of the students who choose to follow it have a
knowledge of photography that does not go beyond posts on Instagram: therefore,
the topics are essentially those mainly linked to the manual setting of the
camera, the combination of ISO sensitivity, shutter speed and aperture value,
depth of field and focal length. We also address, however, a series of themes
that also have direct connections with painting and other expressions of art
for which Rome presents an unparalleled context and potential for analysis:
color composition, contrast, light and shadow, transparencies and reflections,
portrait and degrees of abstraction.
After all,
it is always about the creative process and means of self expression,
interpreted through the medium of the camera rather than color, brushes and
canvas.
I particularly appreciated the group of students in this class: in the courses, on some occasions, alchemies see the light, we don't even know exactly where they originate, but they always translate into very interesting results.
These in the photo above are them, and this here below is a selection of their amazing shots:

As a tear fades away
And the dawn drives a lovers eyes
No more tears, they're all gone
Just believe this will always be
My heart in your hand
Knows that all this belongs to me
And like a child there I stand
While your heart sings inside of me
One dream of my life
One night in eternity
The wind whispers soft to me
And heaven stood still
One Side of the dawn
Knows that all this belongs to me
One celestial rhapsody
And heaven stood still

Experiencing Napoli

| Napoli Photo by Fabio Barilari — National Geographic Your Shot |
Walking through the narrow alleys of Naples you meet, sometimes, unexpected, the sunlight which finds space among the tall buildings of the ancient historical center; a huge open-air museum, the largest Unesco heritage in Europe

His ironic, wrinkled, suffering face, which symbolizes so much of Napoli, its people and history, has been "drawn" with lighting cables in the sky, just above the entrance in Spaccanapoli.

About Architecture / About City
But the making of a life.
That which gives you a reaction.
To some it is the wonder of Man's Fingers.
To some it is the wonder of the Mind.
To some it is the wonder of Technique.
And to some it is how Real it is.
To some, how Transcendent it is.
Like the 5th Symphony
it presents itself with a feeling
that you know it, if you have heard it once.
And you look for it,
and though you know it you must hear it again.
Though you know it you must see it again.
that Nature cannot make what man can make.

è la creazione di una vita che fa scaturire una reazione.
Per alcuni è un miracolo della mano dell’uomo.
Per alcuni è un miracolo della mente.
Per qualcuno è un miracolo della tecnica.
Per qualcuno conta quanto sia reale.
Per qualcuno conta quanto sia trascendente.
È come la Quinta Sinfonia: suggerisce un sentimento che riconosce solo chi l’ha provato almeno una volta e lo sta ricercando.
Lo conosce ma vuole risentirlo.
Lo conosce ma vuole rivederlo.
