Edmond Brown – Excel Photography Student

HOPE

If I was HOPE

I would fix

All the problems in the world.

I would fix all of the houses.

And I would go to all of the cities and

Fix all of their problems.

I would make Detroit a crime free city by

Making something to make everybody good.

This brings HOPE to Detroit.

Excel Photography Program engages local high school students in a project-based photography and leadership development curricula coupled with exciting field trips throughout southeastern Michigan.

Excel provides instruction in the technical and aesthetic aspects of 35mm digital photography and an introduction to the foundations of black and white film photography. Photographic assignments are outcome-based in that students plan and execute their ideas, and evaluate their finished projects through student-led critiques.
