📸 Welcome to the CTE AME Photography Program at Stevenson College & Career Preparatory!

Welcome to our Career Technical Education (CTE) pathway in Arts, Media, and Entertainment (AME), where creativity meets career readiness! My name is Mr. Anthony Ramirez, and I am proud to lead our Photography program here at Stevenson CCP.

In our CTE AME pathway, students in grades 6th through 8th gain hands-on experience with professional cameras, digital editing tools, studio lighting, and real-world media production skills. From learning how to frame the perfect shot to exploring storytelling through still life, portrait, and product photography, students develop both artistic vision and technical expertise.

Our program empowers students to:

  • 📷 Understand and apply industry-standard photography techniques
  • 💡 Use creativity to express personal and cultural stories through visual media

Color in Water

📸 Capturing Art in Motion 🎨 Welcome to our Color in Water photography project! In this exciting exploration of light, motion, and color, we’ll dive into the world of high-speed photography to capture the stunning interaction between water and vibrant pigments. This project challenges us to think beyond the ordinary, experimenting with shutter speed, lighting, and composition to transform simple water splashes into dynamic works of art. As you watch the video of our progress, enjoy the creative process behind each frame. Notice how timing, perspective, and technique bring each splash to life. 💡 Key Questions to Consider: How does light affect the way colors blend in water? What happens when we adjust shutter speed to freeze or blur motion? How can we use composition to create a visually striking image? This project is more than just a photography exercise—it’s a chance to develop a creative eye, technical skills, and a deeper appreciation for movement in art. Sit back, watch, and enjoy the journey of Color in Water! 🚀📷
