Light Photography

LIGHT PHOTOS ASSIGNMENT: You are to take 10 light photos experimenting with manual settings (slow shutter speed). I would like you to try to use photoshop to edit and maybe combine a few photos together. This assignment focuses on creativity in creating and editing. Marks 20 It should be put into a slideshow set to music for another 10 marks. Total 30 marks

 Here are some helpful bits of information to help you with Light Photography. 

SETTINGS: Make sure camera and lens are on manual. Move settings to the following:

SHUTTER SPEED:10 sec- 30 sec

ISO:100

FSTOP: F8.0

USE A TRIPOD AND MANUALLY FOCUS BEFORE YOU TURN THE LIGHTS OFF

Light sources: flashlights, light wands, phone lights, finger lights, sparklers, sparkle/fairy lights, gloves with lights on them.

Space: anywhere where you can get as full darkness as possible. IF USING THE DRAMA ROOM, YOU ARE ONLY IN THE CHANGE ROOM WITH PERMISSION. NO ONE SHOULD BE ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE DRAMA ROOM.
