Shape and Repetition
MAKE SURE YOU ARE INCLUDING ALL PARTS WHEN YOU POST YOUR IMAGES. YOU SHOULD BE TELLING ABOUT YOUR CAMERA, LIGHTING, ETC AND ALSO ANSWERING THE CRITIQUE QUESTIONS WHEN YOU POST YOUR IMAGES.
Step 1. Planning: While planning your shots, you might see an object that has a particularly interesting shape. What is it about that object that draws your eye? Try moving it or shooting it from a different angle. Use shapes that relate to one another to draw your viewer’s attention to certain aspects of your subject that you want to emphasize. In this way, you are able to bring your personal vision to your photographs.
In this planning step, it might be helpful to ask yourself these questions:
- What will my subject matter be?
- Where will I shoot? Is this a place I can easily access and move around (physically) with ease? Is there sufficient lighting, or will I need to bring a light source?
- What kind of subjects (that I can easily find) use shape and repetition?
Review: How to post photos
Each time you add an image to the class discussion, you will need to title your discussion entry and label each image with the following information:
- Type of camera used
- Lighting details (example: “I shot this image outside in natural light, and it was overcast/sunny/raining.”)
- Location of image
- Names of people in the image
- How you manipulated the image using photo-editing software (if applicable)
Critique
After you have uploaded your photos to the blog, you will need to critique your work, as well as the work of at least one of your peers. Respond to all of the critique writing prompts below (for your self-critique AND peer critiques) in the Module Five Create Discussion One. Be sure to use at least two vocabulary words from Module Five in your critique responses.
Critique prompts:
- When I look at this photo, I see…
