OVERVIEW: (PDFdescription<\/a>) (WordDocDescription<\/a>)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Two months into this class, we now have a better idea of how to use\/read our cameras and create successful images in the darkroom. \u00a0We are now better\u00a0equipped with the knowledge and the ability to capture what we see in the world and recreate it in a photograph. \u00a0However, photography (and art) is about much more than just replicating\u00a0what we see – it’s about communicating!<\/p>\n

Now it’s our turn to inspire this thought process in other people by utilizing our knowledge of photography to purposefully create images with meaning and emotion.\u00a0This project aims to make you more aware of LIGHT. \u00a0As we learned in class, lighting has many different qualities that can affect the\u00a0emotional pull of an image.<\/p>\n

For this project you will find different lighting situations to illustrate different emotions and create certain feelings in your prints using your understanding of camera operations,\u00a0lighting, and printing techniques.\u00a0 If you want a challenge,\u00a0 try to NOT take pictures of people’s faces to communicate emotion – we rely on facial expressions to decipher emotion, but think about how a feeling or mood can be created without a person’s face.<\/p>\n

While shooting, look for the following lighting\u00a0situations:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Specular\u00a0Lighting – strong\/crisp lighting, deep shadows and bright hi lights (light on a sunny day)<\/li>\n
  2. Diffused Lighting – soft\/even lighting, weaker\/fuzzier shadows (light on a cloudy day)<\/li>\n
  3. Silhouettes – bright background, dark main subject (back-lit main subject)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    You will then choose 2 pictures to print up – 1 that represents a negative emotion, and 1 to represent a positive emotion.\u00a0 In an effort to spread positivity and improve school culture, you have an extra credit option to print a 3rd picture<\/strong> to give to someone as an act of kindness – a picture that you think will spread positivity in some way. \u00a0Turn in the 3rd picture in your portfolio and after I grade everything, you can give the extra print away.<\/p>\n
