FINAL PROJECT

Applying skills and techniques learned in previous projects, create a cohesive set of photographs that work together as a series, chronologically, connected visually, or united by a common concept or idea.

In developing your concept, consider the following:

·      Do the images work as a series in tonal range, exposure and composition? Do they look like a series?

·      Do the images work together to create a new meaning or understanding that would not be possible with single, separate images?

Minimum 4 images matted. You may optionally add 3 more images for a total of 7 image.  More images will likely increase your point value.

• 4 images will be window matted 11 x 14 inch board

HOW GRADED

• do your have 2 or more contact sheets

• 4 window matted photos 

• Lighting, technical proficiency example no blurring pictures, thoughtful compositions.

• Single subject (not scattered)

• Show ambition

PRINT ASSIGNMENT

PART A
• Print one scene 3 times (5x7 inches) using 3 different exposures.  Print normal first then try to match that print when printing the +2 and the -2 prints.
You will print:
- Normal exposure
- +2 Exposure (Large Aperture {F4, F5.6, F8} & possibly more time) Visual hint should look have more contrast than normal exposure
- -2 Exposure (Small Aperture {F11, F16} & less time) Visual hint should look more flat and grey

Film Bracketing Assignment

1.  Place camera in manual mode.
2.  Put camera's aperture on 8.
3.  Adjust shutter while reading the meter.   Place your meter reading at 0 (zero) or a normal exposure.
4.  Then take 4 more exposures without changing your shutter speed.  What you will change will be the aperture.  Use these 4 other aperture numbers 5.6, 4 for your overexposed negatives.  Use 11, and 16 for you underexposed negative.
5. A total of 5 different exposures for the 1 scene.
6. Record on a sheet of paper your exposure data 1. Frame number 2. aperture 3. shutter speed 4.  4. Exposure (N/0, +1, +2, -1, -2)
6.  Repeat 7 times.

Shoot these 7 subjects

N80 Introduction

Fall 18 Midterm (October 10)

MIDTERM

1. APERTURE  controls amount of light.
2. SHUTTER SPEED controls the amount of time
3. Meter evaluates the brightness/intensity of light
4.Dodging - subtracting light/time from a print in the darkroom.  Makes sections of photo lighter in value. Term used in photoshop to describe making a section lighter value.
5. Burning - adding light/time to a print in the darkroom. Makes sections darker value. Term used Photoshop to describe making a section darker value.
6. ISO/ASA - how sensitive film or digital sensor is to light. Smaller the number less sensitive/bigger more sensitive to light.

7. (Colloidal Process) Requires the photographic material to be coated, sensitized, exposed and developed within the span of about fifteen minutes and creates a negative.
8. (Daguerreotype)Photographic process employing an iodine-sensitized silvered copper plate and mercury vapor to create a single image.
9. (Calotype) an early photographic process in which negatives were made using papercoated with silver iodide.
10. Silver Gelatin dry plate process, one step process, allows for some portability since you no longer need a portable darkroom
11. Cyanotype Non silver process that creates a blue image.
12. Albumen Eggs whites are used to create this printing process. 

13. Depth of field is effected by 3 things: A} Aperture   B} Distance from subject  C} Choice of focal length
14. Reflective Meter reads light bounces off subject.
15. Incident Meter  reads light falling on the subject.
16. Prime Lens Single Focal length
17. Zoom Lens Multiple Focal Length
18. Telephoto Lens 70mm - 500mm(focal length full frame or 35mm) Magnifies what you photographing
19. Wide Angle Lens 24mm-35mm (focal length full frame or 35mm) Wider coverage to photograph more space
20.  Normal Lens 50mm (focal length full frame or 35mm) Approximates what the human eye sees
