1. Framing Project Reflection
Complete the reflection worksheet in Schoology to reflect on your framing project. If you do not turn in a project, you will not get points for this assignment.
2. Texture Lesson
When I see you on Thursday, we'll begin shooting texture!
Texture can be used to bring about all sorts of emotions from the viewer.
Calm = soft and gentle
Courage and power = solid
Tranquil = fluid
Angry = spiky and rough
Time passed by = weathered and worn
Tomorrow, you will create a 9 photo grid with a variety of textures.
Textures can fall into one of two categories- rough and smooth. For example:
Rough: course, bumpy, dry, flat, scaly, glossy, sandy, hairy, hard, prickly, sharp, sticky
Smooth: fine, slick, wet, wrinkled, silky, matte, slimy, bald, soft, velvety, dull, slippery
All photos on your grid should be shot with a tight composition, filling the frame with no negative space. I would suggest shooting in macro mode. Your photos MUST be edited to enhance the texture and I will show you how to do that when we return to class after we shoot. Play with the tools: tune image, details, crop, and especially HDR scape.
In the meantime, go to PADLET. Google search a picture for each category of texture.
