Agenda:
- Series Video 10
- Due Friday!
- Yes, you should be sticking with the same theme. I have been saying since the start of the Series Video assignments that the theme is for all of 2nd Semester.
- Storyboards
- If you did not earn an A for the Media Arts Tutorial Storyboard assignment, this one's for you.
- Be sure to read the rubric and demonstrate that you have learned from past mistakes.
- Light Management
- If you got an A on the Media Arts Tutorial Storyboard, this one's for you.
- Rubric:
- Student submits 10 black & white self-portraits.
- 5 self-portraits show light use helped the composition. (Label them!)
- 5 self-portraits shoe light use hindered the composition. (Label them!)
- Images are not edited, except to rotate and/or rename the images.
- Good composition:
- Important details clearly defined.
- Focal point is in focus.
- Good use of space (Is there too much negative space?)
- Poor composition:
- Blurry (Motion blur or camera shake)
- Too much empty space.
- "Busy" portions distract from the focal point.
- Low contrast
- Tips
- Manually set your ISO, if you can. Lower numbers = darker photos.
- Manually adjust your exposure (+/-).
- Open Camera for Android is a good, free phone app that allows you to mess with these settings.
- If your photos are all blurry, use a tripod.
- Setting a timer and propping helps you avoid "selfie arm."
- Take A LOT more photos than you need, then sort through for the really good (& really bad) ones.
- Good, Bad, & "Eh..." Examples:
