Term 4: Final Deadline All Assignments are DUE FRI JUNE 5

Here is all of the work that needs to be done for term 4

Here is a list of all of the term 4 work which is due Friday June 5. Please note I have moved the deadline up for the final photo assignment to June 5 from June 15.

CRITERIA for all Photos: Make sure the photo has a focal point, is in focus, and you are trying to implement the Elements of Composition we have learned. Things like: fill the frame, rule of thirds, framing, rule of odds, tell a story in your photo, use of triangles, leading lines etc.

1. Photowalk: 10 photos taken on a walk in nature. Please DO NOT recycle old photos you have taken, I will not mark old photos. All photos should be taken by you recently. Put in an album on Flickr. (20 marks)

2. Dialogue: 16 lines of back and forth dialogue between 2 characters. The idea is to reveal information about the characters or develop the storyline through the dialogue. Send by email or post in TEAMS. (10 marks)

3. Final Collection of Best Work: This should include your best photos from the class. 10 of these photos can be from before this class, or old assignment photos from the class, but the other 20 need to be recently taken photos by you. Try to include a variety of different shots. I do not want to see 30 dog shots, or 30 flower shots. Try to include: macros, landscape, portrait, pets, creative shots. Please refer to the Inspiration post on the blog for ideas. There is a lot you can shoot in your home. All photos should be posted in an album on Flickr.
NEW DEADLINE JUNE 5 ( changed from June 15) (Marks 30)

4. NEW and FINAL ASSIGNMENT:  
Photo Poem: Plan to take a photo that has some space around it, (or use one you already have) focus on a subject that you think you can write a short poem on. The poem should be a least 4 lines long. Focus your poem on meaning not rhyme. I really do not like poems that have no meaning and meaningless rhyme. Your poem needs to be about something.

Think about the concept of simplicity with regard to the poem and the photo. Make sure your text is large enough to read. Below are 3 poems I wrote from some of your photos to show you as an example. Thank you to the photographers! Please post in an album on Flickr call it Photo Poem. If you have trouble putting onto Flickr send in a word document on teams.
