Every year our second year photo major students fan out across SAIT’s various campuses and capture (in pictures) the daily happenings of life at SAIT in a single 24-hour period. It is a photographic exploration of both students and staff, and their unique places of work and study. The project allows our students to see a major project through to completion (ie. this photo gallery, and a 40-page book published by our fellow students and staff in the Graphics Communications and Print Technology program). The project also teaches those soft skills like pre-planning, scheduling, and negotiating – all required skills when taking on a project of this scope. We hope you enjoy the set of pictures produced here by our 2017 photo major students…
