Exploring

Exploring

  1. Work on Powerpoints.
  2. Take silhouette and shadow pictures using the projector.
  3. We will go outside for some continuous shots. Most of your cameras have a setting called “Continuous”. This can usually be found in your menu. The continuous setting will let you take 16 or so shots, one right after another, with only having to press the shoot button once. The cool thing about continuous, is you can move your camera around to get a series of photos, or you can photograph someone moving. I recommend taking some shots of a classmate jogging, jumping, dancing, etc.(Maybe things on the playground would be cool, like the swings).

Another way to get some great action shots is to try changing the exposure time (the longer the exposure the more wavy your action shot will be). In your camera’s menu, find an EXP. +/- setting. Try to change the exposure to a higher number (like +1.0). This will help you get action lines.

4. After these projects, if you would like to make a photo box, you may work on that as well.

5. The last half hour of class we will be sharing a few Powerpoint presentations. Remember tomorrow (Thursday) we will start to take home our pieces, and get ready for our Friday party.
