|
|
|

|
Line, Shape, Texture, Colour, Size
|
|
|
Name the Principals of Photography
|
Balance, Composition, Movement, Emphasis, Repetition, Scale, Contrast, Unity
|
|
|
Balance
|
Symmetrical- mirror image from centre- lighting and colour affect balance
Asymmetrical- Balance with a variety of shapes |
|
|
Composition
|
An orderly arrangement of elements using the principals of design
If the photography communicates the message forcefully and clearly, then it is properly composed |
|
|
Movement
|
Diagonal lines –to remove a static shot –keep the viewers’ eye in the picture
|
|
|
Emphasis
|

|
Contrast

To make things stand out more
|
|
|
Unity
|

|
|
|
Line
|
Actual and implied, curved, straight, diagonal, long short
|
|
|
Shape
|
See the objects, or landscape in as abstracts forms or shapes
Form the illusion of a 3D image on a flat surface- form can be emphasized with the use of line and shadow |
|

Texture
|
Surface quality, either tactile or visual texture, rough or smooth
|
|
|

|
|
|
Latent Image
|
An image on an exposed film or print that has not yet been made visible by developing
|
|
|
Aperture

|
|
|
Opacity
|
The condition of lacking transparency or translucence; opaqueness
|
|
|
Light-sensitive materials
|
Photo-paper and undeveloped film
|
|
|
Depth of Field Laws
|
* Large aperture -short depth of field
* Small aperture -large depth of field * Depth of field is greater beyond the focal point Close subject matter and large aperture give minimum depth of field * The closer the subject matter, the smaller the depth of field |
|
|

|
|
|
Developer
|

|
|
Stop
|
Water to stop development
|

How to Create a Contact Sheet
|
1. Choose a negative strip that is consistant in its darkness
2. Do a test strip for that strip, to determine time of exposure 3. Place photo-paper under negative sleeve, and flatten both with glass. 4. Expose sheet the appropriate length of time, and remember to set light aperture to f.11 5. Develop and dry |
|
|

2. Move enlarger head up and down to choose approprite size 3. Turn light all the way up, and focus image at the size you want 4. Turn light down to f. 11 and create a test strip across a strip of the photo, exposing for 4 seconds, 10 times 5. Develop test trip and choose appropriate length of exposure 6. Expose photo 7. Develop |
|
|
Why would you create a test strip?
|
To choose the best amount of time for which to expose your photo. Enough to create contrast, but not too much to make your photo too dark
|
|
|
Liquify
|
Changes the siz of features
|
|
|

|
Gaussian blur
Lens Blur Cutout Smudge Stick Reduce Noise |
