  1. Drop Shadow Review

    Find the assignment in Schoology. Download the element and complete the in class tutorial.

  2. Miniatures

If you didn't complete your Miniature You photo, you will have time to complete that today. Once you're done, we're heading into shooting miniatures!

What is miniature photography?


  • Take a miniature person(s), a tripod, and a camera. (I'd suggest a 50mm, but you do you.)

  • Keep your fstop large, around 11 or higher. This means your aperture will be small and everything you capture will be in focus. You can shoot on manual, OR AV mode. Remember AV mode allows you to control the aperture.

  • Choose a prop(s) and lightbox to work at.

  • Create multiple images using the props. You can also go outside if you'd like to shoot in natural light. Remember to use ordinary objects creatively.

  • Submit three practice photos to Schoology of DIFFERENT narratives and objects.
