1. Explain how to get to the server drives and your folder.
The server drives are on the desktop you click on the icon then go to your server T and look for your period then click on that and find your name.2.Explain how we use blogger.com in this class
We use blogger to blog about photos or information for the whole world to see...kinda like a social network.3. Explain the process of creating a pinhole camera
You get a oatmeal can and then cover it with black tape , covering everything to the point where there is no light showing inside, then you cut a hole put some tinfoil where you put the hole and then poke a small hole in the foil then close of the foil with the piece you cut of and there you got a pinhole camera. :)4. Explain how the pinhole camera works and how the image is transferred to the paper inside
You put the special paper in the camera , with the lid closed, then open the tab for a short amount of seconds to let some light in for the paper to take in. After the short amount of seconds you are to proccess the paper in these special chemicals in a dark room. The paper turns the light into a picture.5. Know how to define and explain the 10 rules of composition, these 10 rules will be a MAJOR portion of the final and you better know how to recognize these rules, explain these rules and show me you understand them:
5a. Rule of thirds- Placing the subject in the corner of the photo and not in the center.5b. Balancing Elements-Placing your main subject off-centre, as with the rule of thirds, creates a more interesting photo, but it can leave a void in the scene which can make it feel empty. You should balance the 'weight' of your subject by including another object of lesser importance to fill the space.
5c. Leading Lines- Lines that lead the eye to the subject of the photo.
5d. Symmetry and Patterns (repetition)- Using repeating patterns in a photo.
5e. Viewpoint- changing the viewpoint of something.
5f. Background/simplicity- Putting a subject on a photo with no background to where the eye wont get disturbed.
5g. Create depth- You can create depth in a photo by including objects in the foreground, middle ground and background.
5h. Framing- The world is full of objects which make perfect natural frames, such as trees, archways and holes. By placing these around the edge of the composition you help to isolate the main subject from the outside world.
5i. Cropping- Basically a big close up on a small object to give it emphasize.
5j. Mergers and avoiding them- Taking a photo where the subject does not seem where something shouldn't be growing like a tree growing from the back of someones head or something.
6. Explain how action and emotion impact a photograph
It moves the viewer and shows or tells a story of the subject.7. Explain how a photo can "tell a story"
Showing emotions. Colors.8. Explain what the word "multimedia" means and share some examples of how we have seen them in class (on the blog)
Multimedia- Having or offering the use of various communications or promotional media.TV. Photos. Music9. Know how to correctly write a caption. I HIGHLY suggest you rewrite the rules on your blog and find at least 2 photos on the internet, post them on your blog and write correct captions for them. This will be a MAJOR portion of the exam as well.
Includes major information about the photo (who, what, where, when, why, how). and should include background information.10. Explain how "strong action" verbs enhance a caption
Just like a comic it shows the type of action the character is partaking.11. Explain how ethics come into play in regards to photojournalism and compare and contrast this with fashion photography. You really need to get the idea that changing photos to fit a need or to make something look like something else is VERY unacceptable in photojournalism.
Like in photojournalism changing something just a little is wrong in many ways because you are not showing the real things of the image.The same goes with fashion photography.
12. Explain the difference between a portrait and a self portrait.
A portrait is a picture of someone else. While a self portrait is a picture of yourself and how you describe yourself.13. Explain what characteristics of a good portrait are.
The rules of photography. Having fun with it. Emotions. Colors. 14. Explain what the major differences are between newspaper and yearbook.
Newspaper is writing stories of modern day citizens or residents around. While yearbook is just stories of the past of accomplishments that students took. Definitions you are responsible for (I highly recommend you post these on your blog with the definitions and make sure they are correct, many of the ones you posted on your blog previously were INCORRECT. All definitions need to relate directly to photojournalism. Example: many of you defined burning as "pain that feels hot as if it were on fire" , when the correct answer is "burning- increases the exposure to areas of the print that should be darker."):
- Shutter Lag-
- Is the delay between triggering the shutter and when the photograph is actually recorded.
- Auto Focus-
- Having the ability to focus automatically
- Pixel-
- The smallest element of an image that can be individually processed in a video display system.
- Contrast Ratio-
- Measure of a display system, defined as the ratio of the luminance of the brightest color (white) to that of the darkest color (black) that the system is capable of producing
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Aperture-
- Also called aperture stop . Optics . an opening, usually circular, that limits the quantity of light that can enter an optical instrument.
- Shutter-
- Photography . a mechanical device for opening and closing the aperture of a camera lens to expose film or the like.
- Exposure-
- To subject, as to the action of something
- Depth of field-
- The range of distances along the axis of an optical instrument, usually a camera lens, through which an object will produce a relatively distinct image.
- Also called depth of focus.
- F Stop-
- The setting of an adjustable lens aperture, as indicated by an f number.
- Focal length-
- The distance between an object lens and its corresponding focal plane in a telescope.
- Also called focal distance.
- 1. Contact sheet-photographic image produced from a film, usually a negative
- 2. Agitation-Keeps a chemical moving
- 3. Enlarger-To make something larger
- 4. Developer-A solution used to make visible the image produced by allowing light to fall on the light-sensitive material
- 5. Stop Bath-an acid bath used to stop the action of a developer
- 6. Fixer-Used to remove residual grain from films and prints when processing them
