Please take two self portraits. One with you in an environment that shows your passion. This will have a long depth of field. The other photo will be a short depth of field and focus on yourself. You will compose the shot and your partner will just be clicking the shutter. Please email to Ms Posey by noon on Monday.

ASSIGNMENT 2 

Choose a subject that you can show their personality and passions with the three prints. You select your subject for Tuesdays class. We will shoot to have this project finished before fall break. 

Three prints

2. Casual portrait (short depth of field)

3. Detail portrait (detail of subject that completes the story)

Tuesday critique day

Here is what you need for critique.

NOTEBOOK / 1 is at the back
1. Final prints (3 prints / abstract / realized and motion in a landscape)
2. Contact sheets
3. Negatives
4. Photo Summary (one page / single spaced / one paragraph for each print. Talk about composition choices and how this fits the assignment)

Favorite one needs to be mounted under glass with white 8x10 cut  matte. See syllabi for details on the frame. Hobby Lobby 40 percent off is your friend. You will show the other two on the magnet board and then put back in your folder. We will look over all three photos in critique.

We will meet in the photo house and start at the beginning of class so have everything ready to go. No putting things in frames when you get there...will get points off your critique grade if you are not ready when you step in the front door. Don't need to dress up. See you then!

Thursday Sept 19

Work day for Thursday. Bring your paper to print your film developed so that you can spend the bulk of your time in the lab on Thursday printing what you need. Remember critique on Tuesday next week. 

Tuesday, Sept 17

Work day for Tuesday. We will make the final call on the assignment due date then depending on how much you all have done by the end of class. Most likely you will have your new assignment introduced on Thursday this week and critique this assignment the following week on Tuesday, the 23rd. If your didn't get all three photos (realized, abstract and motion landscape) represented make sure to shoot another roll before class. We will all day in lab on Tuesday so make sure you bring all your supplies. 

Thursday, Sept. 12

Practice your rolling for homework:) If you feel like you are comfortable developing without me go ahead. If not wait until Thursday. Bring your paper for Thursday because we will start on the print as soon as things are developed. Be prepared to shoot another roll of film if you didn't get it all on this first one or if they didn't turn out the way that you had hoped. See you then!

Thursday, Sept. 5

Hi guys,

Please bring your 20 photographs of your close up object on a flash drive to show the class on Thursday. You will edit these down to five for your photo diary and turn to black and white. Again the photo diary right now is just a digital folder that you are storing all these for later in the semester. Make sure you study your film camera parts sheet. There will be a quiz on Thursday. Please bring your digital camera and film camera to class on Thursday. Also please look up your film camera manual online and study it...you are responsible for knowing the parts of how your camera works as well as the general film camera.
