Project #3 assigned, due April 15th.

 Project #3
Interior photographs and nighttime photography

Working in low light environments
  1. Using your understanding of camera function (F-stop, ISO and shutter speed) you now know how to work in low light situations. Use a tripod to stabilize your camera and photography both inside (anytime) and outside (nighttime). For this assignment, it is okay if you have a human subject. Pay attention to how you are using your camera in low light situations technically, how to create or capturing movement, creating mood using available light, and your intent in creating these images. 2 of these 4 photographs need to show the capturing of movement with a slow shutter speed.

    I DO NOT WANT TO SEE ANY UNINENTIONAL CAMERA SHAKE FROM POOR CAMERA STABILIZATION.

    What to bring on critique day: A total of 4 photographs. 2 photographs of interior, and 2 photographs of nighttime exterior photographs (they can relate to each other, or contrast each other). 2 of these 4 photographs should be capturing movement, so that you understand how shutter speed and ISO works together. All images need to be 8x10 inches or larger (you may want to select 8x12 inches with your printer for crop factor).
    Grading will be reviewing your understanding of creating images in low light situations, camera stabilization, focus, composition, content, execution of idea and class participation.
    Helpful tips: Your ISO should be over 400 for interior and 800 for nighttime. Your F-stop should be around 2.8 or 4 (open wide for maximum amount of light). Your shutter speed should be selected by you, and understand that the longer it is open the more movement it can capture in front of it for ghost-like images. 

    Due April 15th.
