My portfolio details



The Commercial Photography curriculum at GTC requires a print portfolio for graduation. See mine at
http://brucewhalliburtonportfolio.blogspot.com

My portfolio is basically 10.6” x 7.2” images (or the reverse for verticals) printed on 14.25” x 17.25” paper (Epson Exhibition Fiber). They are displayed in clear loose-leaf sleeves (Itoya) in a zippered ring binder (Prat).



If an image is chosen to hang in the Portfolio Show, it is re-printed large (major dimension = 21") and matted with glass in a 34"x34" black frame. These choices are displayed from August-September in the show at Art Station in Stone Mountain, GA. At the end of September they are moved to GTC and hang for a year in the halls near the Commercial Photography office (building 100).

A. Black & White/Color Techniques
