the lumen project

The Biocommunications Concentration in the Department of Photographic Technology 
at Randolph Community College presents...


In the beginning of this semester, the Creative Problem Solving class worked on an assignment to create lumen prints. (how to lumen). This project has been done for years, but our instructor, Kevin Eames, was so impressed with our work, he decided to take on the first ever lumen book project. With the class broken up into teams, we spent the majority of the semester digitizing our lumen prints, creating the book, and producing a companion calendar.

Not only was this an amazing experience, but it gave everyone in the class a chance to really get to know each other. After many long hours and changes to the design of the book, our final product is complete!

All profits from this project go to the Randolph Community College Foundation for Photography Student Scholarships. For more information about the RCC Foundation, visit randolphccfoundation.org.
