ALL TERM #3 WORK DUE FRI APRIL 15

Duplicity Shot: (20 marks) ( to be resized to 8x10 and printed out as well as posted onto Flickr in an album ) Students should use a tripod or monopod to shoot an individual in an interesting background in 4 different positions. All the photos should be shot on the same day at the same time and edited the same way. Then the photos will be edited in Photoshop using layers creating one final photo with all four pictures in it. You will create layers and position each photo into a new layer. When you are ready to print out see Ms. Chase first. NOTE: i have taught how to do this in class, but I am happy to walk students through this process again when they have their photos ready to put into Photoshop.

Macros: ( 10 shots...5 colour ,5 black and white). (Marks 20) Students are to take 5 black and white macros and 5 colour macros. All of the elements of composition should be considered. The photos should be edited  and uploaded to Flickr and put into an album entitled MACROS. Make sure your backgrounds are clean.

As always go out and find cool shots for your year end slideshow. - ongoing

Welcome to 2016 Semester 2 Intro Photography

Photo Basics

Introduction: In this class you will learn much about how to see from a different perspective, how to improve your ability to take photos and how to edit photos in Photoshop. As your teacher, I am not an expert in all technical aspects of Photography. There is much to know in this field and I am a learner as much as a teacher. In fact, I think we have a lot to learn from one another.

Requirements for success in this course:

• a positive attitude and a willingness to learn and push beyond the level you are at
• your own 4-8gb sd card which you bring to class everyday
• a willingness to take a camera home or use your family's camera on the weekend
• to use your class time effectively
• be a good model for your peers

Experienced Photo Students Assignment #1: We are coming in strong with a 14 day photo challenge. If you have difficulty, feel free to swap out one theme for another, but please do not do this more than twice. The intent for this assignment is to do a new shoot, not to recycle old photos. I want you to challenge yourself.

This assignment should be posted to Flickr, it should also be compiled into a slideshow set to music for presentation. The assignment is worth 25 marks and the slideshow is worth 10 marks.

Slideshows due before class on June 10

SLIDESHOWS ARE DUE BEFORE CLASS ON WED JUNE 10, anyone handing in past this time will lose 10 presentation marks out of 50. All other assignments are due on Mon. June 15. No exceptions!

Please see the list of assignments below. Your priority should be on your slideshow. If you are having trouble being able to get music on your slideshow try the following.

• use a different you tube to mp3 converter
• try an older song, one that is not super popular
• try a non vevo song, one that has not been posted by the artist
• bring your music from home on a jump drive

Remember the music must be in mp3 format, and if you download, it should be moved into the My Music file.

Remember to render your video, this means moving it to a movie file (wmv) not wp3 which is the working file.

When finished copy and paste to to my blue jump drive under the file that says :

gr10video2015A or gr10video2015B

If finished everything and looking for a challenge, head over to the advanced site and have aloof at the conceptual assignment. Try typing in conceptual photography into google and have a browse at what comes up…throw a couple of these up on to Flickr to WOW me.

Also do not forget to put your top photos ( as many as you like) onto the Blue drive.

That is is for today.
