Photo I

This class explores the basics of traditional black and white photographic printing as well as digital photographic processes using Adobe Photoshop. We will examine both the aesthetic and technical aspects of the photographic process through several method based assignments. The uses of metering, lighting, composition, and technical aspects of the camera will be reviewed during class to give students a basic understanding of the art of photography.

Patterns & Texture In Nature

9/30/2020

 
Picture
This project will be your second project for the semester and hopefully you are feeling a bit more comfortable being very intentional with your shooting with the cellphone (I know it's different) and more comfortable with your editing in photoshop. Your assignment is to find the beauty in nature through the use of pattern and texture. Pattern is identified as a repetition of a certain element or elements. Texture refers to the properties held by an external surface. Although we cannot actually feel the texture in a photograph, implied texture will give the viewer the feeling that he or she can actually reach in and touch the image.

Assignment:
  • Shoot 50 photos of texture and pattern—25 textures and 25 patterns
  • find both repeating patterns and textural elements outside the school
  • edit your 10 best images on photoshop
  • create a contact sheet of your 50 unedited photos


Tips to Get Started:
You should decide how you are going to frame your subject. Use the rule of thirds. Consider your outdoor lighting. Is it sunny or cloudy? How can we zoom a little closer to take a better photograph. Fill the frame with your pattern or texture. Watch your backgrounds (no cars or random people).
