RIT School of Photographic Arts and Sciences
The 2007 Big Shot photograph of Pile Gate, in Dubrovnik, Croatia, captured on April 12.
Kelly Downs of RIT University News has been in Dubrovnik, Croatia, for the “Big Shot” photo project. The RIT community can follow along on her Croatian adventure April 7-15. Downs is providing a window into life in Dubrovnik as well as preparations leading up to the “Big Shot. Regular blog entries on The Tiger Beat Blog and audio podcasts are posted on RIT's news website (see \"Latest Podcasts\"). RIT’s School of Photographic Arts and Sciences worked closely with RIT’s American College of Management and Technology in Dubrovnik to coordinate this international photo-making event, which took place April 12. The Big Shot requires hundreds of volunteers to paint the subject area with flashlights and camera flash units while RIT photographers shoot an extended exposure.
