Update of work: week ending Feb 15

In order of priority, make sure you have the following done by the end of this week.

1. Flickr: make an account, make Ms Chase a contact, make a few contacts in the class, put your photo on the buddy icon, change the background photo to make it one of yours, put all of your assignment photos into albums, and join the Mark Isfeld Photo group. ( 10 marks)

2. Bio: Complete your rough copy of your bio in writing, hand in to Ms Chase for editing, fix up, and then hand back in your good copy for marking. ( 10 marks)

3. Head shots: Take 2 good quality head shots of 2 DIFFERENT people, and put into an album on Flickr. Make sure you also include a head shot of yourself. ( 10 marks)

4. Rule of thirds:You were to look up the rule of thirds on the internet and then go out and take two photos focusing on this concept. Edit these photos. Put into an album on Flickr. (5 marks)

5. If finished all of this, see Ms Chase for the new writing assignment.


Grading for Photography: What I am looking for in a good photograph:

  • photo is in focus and sharp
  • photo has strong compositional elements
  • photo has some thought put into it/fits the assignment criteria
  • photo is sometimes taken from a unique angle/evidence of experimentation
  • photo has been edited if necessary, but not over-edited

Resources:

What is composition?

Elements of composition are: patterns, texture, symmetry, asymmetry, depth of field, lines, curves, frames, contrast, color, viewpoint, depth, negative space, filled space, foreground, background, visual tension, shapes. Use one or more of these elements to create a composition that works for your image.
