VIDEO ASSIGNMENT DUE Tues APRIL 25 to be presented in class
Assignment#7: "Beauty in a Second" video project Please see sample assignment links to get an idea as to how this assignment should look. Essentially, you are to go out and shoot 60 1 second video clips (you may need shots to be up to 6 seconds to capture the video fully to allow for editing) and then compile to the specified piece of music in a movie program. The music is the same for all slideshows, however you can choose to not use the music that goes with the video. When watching the sample videos, music can be downloaded through iTunes mp3 convertor or bought from i-tunes. Marks 40
Please note: when shooting video, you still want your shots to be up close, shot using various angles, and capturing a feeling or essence of the beautiful moments in life.

Macros
DEADLINE FOR MACRO SLIDESHOW THURS APRIL 6 to be presented in class.
Assignment #6 : Student Macro/Close-up
Toward a definition of true macro photography. See link below.
Definition of Macro Photography
Assignment #6 Macro Photos and Slideshow: You are not expected to take true macros, however you do need to meet the following criteria.
Criteria for Macros: "A close up shot of an object." You must have a focal point, your photos must be in focus, have a clean background, use light appropriately and photos must be taken of interesting subject matter. You need to think about how you want to compose the shot.
12's : 10 shots plus your theme shoot
11's: 20 shots
First time in Photo: 15 shots
* 2 photos taken with the macro lens
To be marked out of 30, 20 marks for shots, 10 marks for slideshow.
Assignment is due March 30.
All shots should be edited and put into a slideshow set to music as well as put into an album on Flickr.
Camera phones can be used and will likely take good close-up photos, but make sure your subject matter is in focus. I would like everyone to have at least 2 photos taken using the macro lens.
