Working with a model of your choice, you should plan to set up a portrait shoot. You will need 10 different shots of one model. Plan to shoot a variety of different shots including but not limited to: a couple of head shots, several full body shots, creative shots using the lcd projector/costumes/props etc. Study other portrait photographer's work and learn how to effectively pose your model.
This assignment is worth 20 marks.
Tips:
- plan your shots/shoot
- be aware of where the light is ( best times to shoot dawn and dusk)
- choose a good background
- use a prop ( umbrella, hat, scarf, pumpkin etc)
- shoot people in their element ( skateboarder with a skateboard at the skatepark)
- create a rapport with your model and direct the shoot, which means tell the model what you want them to do.
So maybe you can research posing and plan your model and location. If you have done your shoot, you should spend some good quality time editing. If you are doing your portraits at school, find someone to photograph and get busy. There are lots of places to shoot around the school. ( skate park, woods, garage door near the soccer clubhouse, metal storage containers on the soccer fields. )
