Life in One Color

Due Friday March 7th Monday March 10th

1. Choose one color to concentrate on: red, yellow, blue, orange, violet, green (or you can be more specific like pink or teal).
2. Capture interesting photographs that feature your color of choice. Use DSLR cameras, when possible, but of course you can also use your phone.
3. The color doesn’t have to fill the frame, but the color you chose should be obvious.
4. Edit your best 9 photos in Lightroom.
5. Create a blog post and add your edited photos as a gallery with 3 columns, link to media file, and thumbnail size.

NOTE: DO not photograph FLAT subjects, like zoom-ins of posters, wallpaper, or fabric. Flat subjects can be photographed in a more 3-D manner, though.

Examples:

If you want to submit a photo, I have a USB drive at my desk where you can save the photo. Just rename the file with your name.

Here is an email I received from our Visual & Performing Arts Coordinator:

“Good afternoon, Arts Teachers and Site Administrators,

I’m excited to share an idea to spotlight student creativity in our Fontana community. I am creating a District Arts Magazine, and I’d love to feature student photography on the cover.

Here’s how your students can get involved:

• Photographs of your schools or the district office are needed for the cover (be as creative as they can).
• We’re also introducing a special section on digital photography, showcasing student work.

If your students would like to participate, please send their submissions along with the student’s name, grade, school, and technique.”

Today’s Agenda:

• Finish yesterday’s photo critique assignment
• Portrait Light Patterns Edpuzzle Video + Questions
• Digital Capture: Multiple Viewpoints is due Feb 25th! (Exhibition submission date is Feb 28th.)

Reviewing Focal Lengths

Due Friday 2/7/25

Create a post with the following:

• Define/explain what focal length is.
• Explain what different focal lengths are used for/best for.
• Choose a subject to photograph with at 4 focal lengths (such as 18mm, 50mm, 85mm, 200mm.)
• Post your 4 photographs with full camera settings.

Keep the same framing, which requires you move back or forth!!

Your scene should have your main subject plus some elements in the distant background:
