Term #2 Begins

TERM 2 Assignments and Due Dates

Ad Shoot and Final Ad: You are to decide on a product and try shooting it many different ways. You are expected to do 10 shots minimum and post to Flickr in an album. Once you have done this, in consultation with the teacher or others in the class, you are going to determine which photo will work best for an ad and then create the ad from this photo. You will then edit for lighting, put on text ( an ad slogan) or a logo. Marks 20 Due: Friday Nov.23

Boundary Shot Rough Work: Make sure when shooting this shot you have the camera settings set to the highest level possible, but not RAW unless you are working at home or on your own computer. I want you to execute your shot that you have written up for me. We may still need to talk a little about refining or simplifying your ideas.I would like to see 3-4 images outlining this idea by Friday Nov. 30. Marks:10

The final Boundary shot will be due before Christmas. It should be sized to 16x20. Marks: 20

Yearbook shots: 5 shots on your theme, edited and put onto Flickr and then into the yearbook folder under ChasePhoto2019 make sure you have your name on all photos Friday Dec 7 Marks: 10

We challenged teenagers to analyze media and adult stereotypes about their generation — then take photos to counter them.“What can you show us from your own life, or the lives of those around you, that might help make the portrait of ‘Gen Z’ more interesting, complete or real?” we asked. Nearly 2,200 students answered. They showed us teenagers in cars, in classrooms, at parties, in swimming pools, on playing fields and in their beds; teenagers with their dogs, their moms, their friends, their homework, their makeup, their video games and their prom dates; teenagers running, jumping, studying, singing, vaping, taking selfies, protesting and kissing. But the thing they showed us most often — by our count, in over 70 percent of the images we received — was teenagers with their phones.      Check out this link:generation article
