Artificial Lighting

Students will use artificial lighting (not natural from the sun), to take a series of photographs. These photos must incorporate writing on objects or persons. Think of a quote, phrase, poem, etc, and write it on an object or person (must be appropriate and in appropriate locations). There will be a total of four photos. The following lighting techniques must be demonstrated.

Students will then make a contact sheet with their four photos, and labeling each one.

Then select one of the four photos to manipulate using the techniques we have learned thus far in the year.

If you want to add effects to your lighting, go to the filter option in the menu bar.

You will find options that may help with your lighting to the photo.
