Tuesday :)~

Today.......



1.We are going to go over the WS from Chapter 1 of the Focus on Photography text.




ASSIGNMENT #4


This will be your first assignment where you get to take some photos! YAY!!


Your assignment is to take 1 photo that represents each of the elements of art and the principles of design.


(Again, the elements are line, shape, form, texture, value, space, and color. You should be familiar with these)


Go to this website to read about the principles of design. (They are rhythm, movement, pattern, balance, proportion, variety, emphasis, and harmony)

YOU WILL HAVE AT LEAST 15 PHOTOS..... at least one that represents each element/principle.


Today I want you to brainstorm things that you can photograph with your digital camera for each of these elements.


Please brainstorm ideas on your blog as a new post. Add some example photos from the Internet if you want.

• Remember to keep it realistic. You have to be able to realistically take the photos. So don't brainstorm about photoing the Grand Canyon or Niagra Falls.
• Also, don't copy photos that you have seen in the past. You can STEAL ideas, but no copying is allowed. When you STEAL you take something and make it your own!!!!!

Try to take some photos today, (if you have your camera with you) and/or tonight. You may want to bring y0ur camera with you tomorrow so you can take photos then.


You will then select the 3 best and edit them in Paint.NET. <---more about this part later.

You must have all photos by Tuesday....You will begin editing your best 3 photos on Tuesday after the test.
