INTRODUCTION

Refresh your skills from pervious courses and show me that you know what you are doing – I am available to answer questions, but you should know how to take a roll of film, develop, print, scan the photos, then modify the images in Photoshop and submit them electronically using InDesign or a Blog.

If you are NOT at all sure what to do, you might consider completing Photo II instead, where you will learn all the required skills.

BASIC REQUIREMENTS:

• Think of a photographic theme & get the idea approved
• Take at least 20 photographs (Keep track of exposure times and F Stops)
• Show to your teacher for making. (tTis is the first of two marks)
• Print your best 8 pictures
• Scan photos, adjust them in Photoshop for brightness, contrast, etc to make them PERFECT
• Create a MULTIPAGE document in InDesign and place your 8 photos
• You could also create a Blog.
• Add some captions to your photos, that explain your theme and give details about the shots
  • Who / What is your Subject and what is in the background
  •  Camera, Lens, F-stop and exposure time information
  • What was done in Photoshop
  • Example:
    • Two little kids during outside Playtime at the KCC
    • Pentax K1000, 50mm; F2.8; 1/250
    • Contrast and brightness adjusted in Photoshop CS5
• Add backgrounds or borders to your pages for “Extending” marks.
