Semester III
This semester is aimed at learning the process of curating each student's body of work over the year and organizing a photo exhibition. As the preparation progresses, students understand the process of captioning a picture, mounting it on a wall and present it to the audience at exhibitions. Special sessions are organized where students learn how to deal with the business of photography, understand the pricing dynamics and how to market their work. The exhibition works as a platform for the students to showcase their work for critical public appreciation as their diploma project.
