Using the shooting mode Tv, set the shutter speed to 1/400 or higher. Capture a range of subjects in motion creating a minimum of 20 photos that freeze the motion.
Blurring motion:
Use a tripod. Start with a shutter speed of 1 “. If your photos are too bright look for a darker place to shoot. Combine something moving and something that is still and sharp in every frame. Create a minimum of 10 photos that contrast blurred motion with a sharp environment.
Put the final 30 photos in an album on Flickr. Send your single best blurred motion and your single best frozen motion to the class group.
For full lab credit, you should hand in an album on Flickr with 6 final photos: the 4 below and your best photo and one of your classmate’s best photos.
Make global adjustments on each example:

Post your corrected versions of all four to Flickr.
Select your partner’s single best photo. You and your patner each make your own corrections on the file. Post to the class group and compare your results.
Now, reverse it. Your partner picks their favorite of your photos. And you both adjust it. Post the results.
Take pictures during the field trip of the places we visit and the people you see.
Think about how exposure can change the mood of the photos that you take. Make sure to take at least one photo of the Oculus where it feels light and airy and one where it feels darker and gloomy. Do the same in the courtyard of Brookfield place.
Use everything we have discussed in class so far: composition, angle of view, and use the light as much as possible. We will take the subway, walk through the Oculus and on to Brookfield Place. The light will change as we move through different spaces. think about how to use it to your advantage.
Put your 30 best photos in an album on Flickr and send your best two to the group.
Photograph the same stuffed animal at each station to create the widest range of different moods and feelings .
2. After working at each of the stations, create one image that communicates the idea of a happy childhood and a second that communicates the idea of a miserable childhood.
Use the light to create the different moods while also using everything you know about composition including angle of view, framing, and so on.
Put your twenty best in an album on Flickr and send your best two childhood images (one happy and one miserable) to the class group.
Floodlight– light is diffused and wraps around the subject hitting it from many angles. Shadows are soft.
