Portrait of a place-Select a park or playground near you. You will take photographs in the same location two weeks in a row. Photograph your location at two different times of day or in two types of weather to capture the place and the people who use it in a series of 8 final photos.
Complete project and presentation due October 11. 10 pts.
- 40 photos in an album labeled Shoot 1 on Flickr due October 4 at 12 noon.
Portrait of a Place-Your shots should cover a wide range of approaches: long shots to close ups, people including at least one person in motion, animals and plants. Each photo should use light and composition in compelling ways. Show the full range of the techniques that we have tried in class.
2. Second set of 40 Photos in an album labeled Shoot 2 on Flickr due October 11 at 12 noon.
3. 8 final photos adjusted in Lightroom in an album labeled Midterm on Flickr due October 11 at 12 noon.
4. A brief presentation- 3 to 5 minutes – to the class of your project on Oct 11.
Look for and photograph in places that are both darker and lighter and use exposure compensation to get the look you want.
- Take at least 10 shots that are lowkey – most of the tones are dark
- Take at least 10 shots that are highkey – most of the tones are light
Backlight
Backlight is one of the most common challenges for the camera meter.
Take at least 10 photographs of your classmates or other subjects against the sky.
• Use negative exposure compensation to darken the subject to a silhouette.
• Use positive exposure compensation to brighten the subject and over expose the background.
Landscape/cityscape photos
The sky is much brighter than the ground. Take at least 10 photos showing a range of location shots of DUMBO, the park, the skyline with and without the sky. When your composition includes the sky use positive exposure compensation to take a second shot in which the ground and the buildings are well exposed ie brighter and the sky itself is overexposed.
Post your 5 best lowkey hots, 5 best highkey shots, 5 backlit shots and 5 cityscape photos to an album on Flickr.
Send your best of each to the class group.
