Motion Speed Time

Motion Speed Time 25 points

7 photos, Due November 2

Camera settings:
ISO: 200
Camera mode: Shutter priority
File Size: RAW
Tripod

This assignment is actually two: Virtual Volume and Blurred Motion

Virtual Volume
The objective of this assignment is to explore the effect of slow shutter speeds. Namely, showing the passage of time through blur. We're interested in:

The character or personality of the blur,
and the shape of the blur.

You'll want to photograph in low light (otherwise your slow shutter speeds will be overexposed). If you shoot in bright light, use a polarizing or neutral density filter to cut down the amount of light.

Pick your two best. Edit: black and white, cropped 8x10. Upload to Flickr,
Title: Virtual Volume.

Blurred Motion
Take a series of images of a moving object. Vary your shutter speeds from 1/1000 down, to slow enough that the object blurs.

Use a background darker than the subject so the subject, not the background, is being exposed.

Pick five photos (color or black and white… cropped to square, 5x7 or 8x10, your choice) that show an increase in blur (from static, no motion all the way to very blurry and lots of motion). Upload to Flickr. Title: Blurred Motion.

Painting with light

Painting with Light 30 points

4 photos, Due November 2

Camera settings:
ISO: 100-400 (your choice -- recommend low ISO for less noise)
Camera mode: Manual
Shutter speed: 1-30 seconds (probably)
Aperture: Will vary, probably something relatively wide open like f4.5
File Size: RAW
Tripod
Flashlight, (color) LED light, or penlight

• Find a dark setting.

• Set camera on tripod.

• Using a long exposure (shutter speeds will vary depending on your setup), photograph a scene using a handheld light to "paint" with.

You'll shoot four shots:

Product shot • Pretend it's for a magazine ad

Location shot • Paint an object with light at an interesting location

Portrait • They'll have to sit very still!

Environmental Graffiti • Your message? Up to you

Color. Cropped to 8x10 or 5x7. Handed in via Flickr. Title: Product shot, etc.

Other tips:
• You may want to use a nice dark studio for the product and portrait shot
• Google "Painting with light" for inspiration and examples
• If you are "in" the frame while painting, wear something all black as to not show up in the photograph.

Start here
1. Visit Andy's Flickr page (http://www.flickr.com/photos/andylangager) and do the following for photos "Practice 1" "Practice 2" and "Practice 3":

1. Click on the photo
2. Click on the magnifying glass icon to the top right of the photo
3. Click "View all sizes" in the upper right
4. Click "Original" size
5. Control-Click "Download the Original size of this photo"
6. Change the save location ("Where") to Desktop

Click back on "andylangager" to find the rest of the photos

For Practice 1:
• Open Adobe Bridge
• Navigate to the Desktop
• Control-click on Practice 1 file and choose Open in Camera Raw
• Fix photo in Camera Raw. Try to make it as true-to-life as you can. Save straightening for Photoshop
• When you are ready to straighten, click "Open Image"
• Find the eyedropper tool (6th down on the tool bar). Hold mouse button down over it. Choose Ruler
• Zoom in (Command•+) if you need to. Draw a line with the ruler, following a line that should be straight horizontally.
• Click the "Straighten" button (it will only be highlighted after you've drawn your ruler line)
• To make sure it is straight, click Command•R for your ruler guides. Hover your mouse in the top ruler guide, click and drag down the screen. A line should appear. Bring the line down to a horizontal line to check straightness. Drag line back up to ruler guide to erase.
• When done, "Save As" -- be sure to pick Format: JPEG (NOT PSD). Quality 8.

For Practice 2:
• Open the Practice 2 image directly in Photoshop CS5 (not Camera Raw)
• Choose Image -> Adjustments -> HDR Toning…
• Try a couple different "Preset" options (it's the top drop-down menu)
• Find an effect you like. Adjust the sliders to see what they do.
• If you need to start over, hit cancel and try again
• Adjust to taste. And "Save As…" just like with Practice 1.
• Open in Camera RAW for further adjustments if needed (if you do this step, Save As.. once more when done)

For Practice 3:
• Open in Camera Raw
• Make adjustments as needed (exposure, contrast, etc.)
• Don't try to fix the spots on the white paper -- we'll do it in Photoshop
• When finished, click Open Image.
• To heal part of the image, try using the spot healing tool. (Hover the mouse over the tools on the left until you find it -- it looks like a band-aid)
• Also try using the Rectangle Marquee selection tool (second from the top) -- then,
• Select part of the image you want to fix and hit the delete key. Use "Content Aware" (the default) and hit OK.
• Try using the Quick Selection tool (third from the top -- you might have to hold the mouse down) to select only the apple. If you make a mistakes, use the same tool but hold down the option key to erase the selection.
• Once you have the apple selected, copy it by pressing Command•C
• Paste it into a new layer by hitting Command•V
• Hide the previous layer by clicking on the "eyeball" next to the background layer in the layers window
• Click "Set Foreground Color" -- toward the bottom of your tools (it is probably a black rectangle)
• Select blue -- it's up to you what tint/shade
• Go to Layers -> New Fill Layer…
• Choose Gradient…
• For Color: choose Blue (click OK)
• Change Style to Radial, click the Reverse button and click OK
• In your layers window on the right, drag your gradient layer below your 2nd layer so the blue gradient appears underneath the apple
• Save As… JPEG

Finally,
Upload all three to Flickr! Make up a great title for each.

Kitchen Imagination

Kitchen Imagination 25 points
7 Photos, Due October 21

The purpose of this assignment is to exercise your creativity and showing how you can create interesting photographs from everyday objects.

The Clarence H. White School of Photography started the careers of many photographers. One of the assignments was to create a still life made from objects located in a kitchen.

So, for this assignment you will create a 7 still-life images from items found in your kitchen that illustrate an understanding of at least 3 fundamentals such as line, texture, balance, perspective, or depth of field (see Chapter 9 p. 171 for a full list).

Don't overlook the fridge, kitchen drawers, cabinets, etc. You can photograph the items as you find them or make your own arrangement (stacking soup cans, for example).

Remember, besides your still life subjects, great light is key to creating a great photograph.

Camera settings:
ISO anywhere from 100-400
Camera set to Manual
No built-in camera flash
Tripod optional (depending on setup and amount of light) If you don't have a lot of light to work with or want a large f-stop, you may need one.

Series of 7, color or b&w, cropped to 5x7, to be handed in via Flickr.

Seven Deadly Sins

Seven Deadly Sins 50 points
7 photos, Due October 21

Camera settings:
ISO: 100-400 (your choice)
Camera mode: Manual, Aperture Priority or Shutter Priority
File Quality: RAW
Tripod optional
No built-in camera flash (unless used as a fill flash outside)

Seven Seas, Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, Seven Days of the Week, Seven Dwarfs, Seven Sisters, Seven Falls, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, House of Seven Gables, Seven Virtues, Seven Years' War, Seventh Heaven, the number of holes in a Ritz cracker, and the Seven Deadly Sins!

In the sixth century, Pope Gregory the Great reduced the Greek list of the eight offenses to seven items, folding vainglory into pride, acedia into sadness, and adding envy, and came up with this list if sins: pride, envy, anger, sadness, greed, gluttony, and lust. About ten centuries later, the Church replaced the vague sin of sadness with sloth. The list now reads: gluttony, sloth, envy, greed, wrath, pride, and lust.

Make 7 images that illustrate each of the seven deadly sins. These images are to be viewed as a group, so they need to have similar style or some sort of thread that weaves the group together.



Series of 7, cropped to 5x7 or 8x10, color, uploaded to Flickr. Title should be Sin Name.

Studio #1

Studio #1 25 points

One photo, Due September 30

Camera settings:
ISO: 200
Camera mode: Shutter priority
Shutter speed: 200
File Size: RAW
Color 8 1/2" by 11"

You are a photographer for Food magazine.

It's a great gig. However, this week things have been a bit rushed. Your editor tells you they need a cover photo QUICK and they don't care what the food item is. It just has to look GOOD.

Your task: photograph a studio shot of food. Any kind of food. Your choice. It just has to look appealing, appetizing, and aesthetically pleasing. After all, your photo needs to sell magazines.

You'll be graded on:
• Creativity
• Arrangement
• Technical (focus, exposure, etc.)
• Appropriate Photoshop work

Crop to 8 1/2" wide by 11" tall in Camera RAW or Photoshop. (Remember, when framing it up in your camera leave a little extra room so you can crop later)

Using the studio:
The studio is free during our class period. You will need to sign up for studio time if you want to use it outside of our class time.

I'll give you more info on using the lights.

Neon Signs

Neon Signs 25 points
Two photos, Due September 30

Camera settings:
ISO: 100
Camera mode: Manual
File Size: RAW
Also, you'll probably need a tripod

For this assignment you'll be photographing two neon signs. Catchy, cool, interesting, eye-catching signs at night. They should have some kind of relationship to each other -- contrasting signs, opposites in some way, or two signs that work well together or play off each other.

Use your spot meter mode to get an exposure reading of the brightest part of the sign. At ISO 100, your sensor sensitivity will be very low, which means a slow shutter speed, even at a low f-stop number. You'll probably need to steady the camera with a tripod.

Then, frame up your shot (remember, you'll crop to 5x7 so give it a little more room than you think you need).

You might be up close or across the street and zoomed in. The neon sign should be the main focus of the shot, but it doesn't have to be the only thing in the fame

It might be a good idea to bracket your shots (get a few different exposure settings just in case). Try plus 1 stop, minus 1 stop, etc.

Import your photos and edit.

Crop your shots to 5x7 and upload to Flickr. Title, Neon Sign.

You'll be graded on…
• If the photograph is in sharp focus
• Proper exposure
• Composition and crop
• The creativity of your signs and composition

Shooting Steel assignment

Shooting Steel 25 points

3 Photos, Due September 14

You have 3 pieces of identical steel bars and you give them to the following 3 designers…

An elderly Japanese gentleman
A German engineer
An Italian automaker

They all return to you the 3 pieces of steel in their creative forms. The Japanese design is very practical. The German design is very exact. The Italian design is beautifully stupid.

Your assignment is to photography these 3 designs using an f-stop setting no larger than f3.5 or no smaller than f11.

Two will be black-and-white (8x10) and one in color (5x7).

Label each (Japanese Steel, German Steel, Italian Steel) and upload to Flickr.

Vehicle in Motion assignment

Vehicle in Motion 25 points

3 Photos, Due September 14

The purpose of this assignment is to practice playing with a slow shutter speed and a moving object.

Find a safe spot on a corner or side of the road. You'll want traffic to be going 35-50 miles per hour, the further back you are, the faster you want the cars to be going.

Make sure it's during the daytime.

Set your camera to:
ISO 200
Shutter priority or manual mode
Shutter speed: try 1/10, 1/15, 1/30 (or more or less)

As the car goes past you, try to keep the car in the same spot in the frame as you click the shutter. The goal is to capture the car crisply but a blurry background due to the slow shutter.

Take at least 40 shots.

Often when you look at a photo and think it is sharp on the small LCD screen, it will appear blurry when you get back to the computer. Zooming in to inspect the photo will help avoid this.

Edit in Photoshop/Camera Raw. Crop photo to 5x7.

Take your three best and upload them to Flickr. Title them, Vehicle in Motion.

White Balance Assignment

Digital Photography Assignment: White Balance 20 points

10 Photos, Due September 2

This assignment will show you how different environments have different color temperatures and show you how to adjust to each with your camera.

Make sure your camera is in RAW mode.

Have a friend come with you and shoot their "portrait":

In the sun, with each of these white balance settings:
Sunny
Cloudy
Shade

In the shade, with these settings:
Sunny
Shade
Tungston

Now go indoors. Turn on all the lights you can in the room so it is bright enough to take a photo without a flash. Repeat with these settings:
Auto
Sunny
Tungston
and Manual White Balance

For manual, consult your camera's user manual. Usually, you photograph a white piece of paper or a neutral grey card (18% grey), set the custom white balance to this shot in the menu, and set the white balance to custom.

When you finish your shots, import them to the computer, convert them to .JPG and upload them to Flickr. Title your image with setting and the white-balance setting used. For example
SUN-Sunny
SUN-Cloudy
SUN-Shade

If you don't remember which white balance you used, check the file metadata.

Depth of Field Assignment

Digital Photography Assignment: Depth of Field 20 points

4 Photos, Due September 2

For this assignment you will need a tripod or something to stabilize your camera.

The purpose of this assignment is to give you a chance to see how changing the aperture size changes the depth of field, i.e. the amount of focus, in the photograph.

Camera settings:
ISO: 400
Camera mode: Aperture priority
File Size: RAW

Find an object that says something about you. Place it about one to three feet from the camera.

Make sure there is space behind your object. In other words, make sure your object isn't just in front of a wall.

Shoot your object at 4 different f-stops. Make sure one is wide open and one is as small an aperture as possible. For example,

f3.5 (wide open), f8, f16, f22 (small as possible)

Some lenses may go less than f3.5 (f2.8 or f1.8 for example) and greater than f22.

When you finish your 4 shots, import them to the computer, convert them to .JPG and upload them to Flickr. Title your image with the f-stop used. If you don't remember which is which, check the file info (metadata) in Adobe Bridge.

Website: http://art186.blogspot.com

Course Description:
Students will learn the basic principles of digital photography. Topics will include basic camera operation, composition, metering, computer tips and tricks, and shooting tips and tricks. The digital camera in conjunction with the computer will become instruments to explore visual communication effectively.

Equipment:
Required:
• DSLR Camera that can shoot Camera RAW format
• 2GB (or larger) memory card
• USB drive or portable hard drive (at least 4 gig recommended)
• Rocket
• Simple portfolio for printed photos

Optional
• Cleaning supplies: lens tissue and fluid, Q-tips
• Travel bag
• Tripod
• Small tripod or beanbag
• Wide angle lens
• Telephoto lens (200mm or longer)
• Battery grip and/or extra battery

Your Camera:
DSLR stands for Digital Single Lens Reflex. There are a lot of options for DSLRs to use for this class. Usually you can break them down into about 3 categories (before you start getting to the upper-end professional like Canon 1D or Nikon D3):

Consumer: $450-$1000
Canon Rebel (any model)
Nikon D40, D60, D90, D3000, D5000
Pentax K2000
Sony A230L, 330L, A550

Mid-range consumer/pro: $900-$1700

Flickr:
I'd like you to turn in your project assignments in via Flickr. If you already have an account, great. If not, it's free to sign up. The free account is limited to 100 MB per month, but that should be enough (just make sure to shrink/compress your photos after you edit them).
Add me as a contact or send me the link to your profile so I can bookmark you. Then, all you have to do is upload your weekly assignments and add a title to each photo. If you don't want your photos public, you can set the privacy level, just make sure to add me so I can see them. If you want, join the DMACC group to share your work.

One-on-one meetings:
When we don't have lecture, we will be doing one-on-one meetings to talk about your work. Always bring your latest photo assignments with you on a USB drive.
I will make a schedule for our meetings. We'll have 5 meetings total. (These are very informal, it's just a chance to chat about your work, except for the first one when we have a camera quiz).

Expectations:
Come to lectures and one-on-one meetings or reschedule if you can't make it. Meet deadlines for assignments. Please let me know if you are struggling with the assignments. I try to be flexible and fair to all students.
