Camera Club 2nd Years

Welcome to the Camera Club Assignment page for second year members.

Projects:

This is where I will post your topic / theme for the week.  I want you to take the idea given and be as creative and innovative as you can. You need to post your best shot or shots on your page with a heading and comment.  When you post your shots you need to make a comment.  This may be about how you took the shot or a creative phrase / sentence or paragraph.  The only rule is you must take the shot(s) yourself and write something to go with it.  


The Topic for this week is:

Photo Board :
See attached PDF



Action 2 :     Midair


It is a tricky thing to try and capture a shot of something in mid air. Get someone to jump in the air, throw ball in the air, do a jump with a scooter or fly a paper plane. Have a go at getting a great action shot of something in mid air. Try to think of the different angles you could take the shot with to get an effective photo.
Post it on the Camera club page and give it a caption before next Friday.



Macro Activity:


Take photos of anything very close up so that it is not clear what they are.  Present these on a page for other people to try and guess what the objects are. Take photos of objects from interesting angles to not make the objects too obvious. You should be able to get 8 - 12 photos on your page. Take a screen shot and post on your page.  Have Fun!

Can you guess what these are?


Action  
( sports/vehicles/anything moving ) You may see things at school or a sports game that will be helpful.
Create a diptych of two shots you take and post on our blog. 

Please post your 2 best pictures before Friday.

Water 

Water is amazing stuff and can be tricky to photograph.  There are some creative ways to shoot water whether it is moving or still.  Take some shots of water in as many different ways as you can think and make a diptych of your best shots. You may see some water around school that will be helpful. ( Swimming pool, drinking fountain, puddles ) Take some water shots over the weekend as well.

Please post your diptychs before next  Friday. 




Wheels


There are many wheels around the school or at home. Try to take photos that show wheels in a creative way. Remember get close up to take your photos. You might need to crop them to make the shots even more powerful. Have fun. Please post your best two pictures as a diptych, or just individual photos on the Camera Club  page before Friday 31 March.




Diptych (said diptick) 


This is where you take two different photos that have a connection and present them together. You can display them as the same size or different sizes but they need to be seen together and be linked in some way. Here are some examples.  Please present your best two pictures as a diptych on a page before Friday 24 March.  




"The best thing one can do when it's raining is to let it rain."  


Henry Wadesworth Longfellow.





Can you work out what the story is behind these photos? 

Take some photos that are connected and create 2 diptychs.  Present them on a page. Give them a title or comment that is thought provoking.



Growing in  the Ground.( flowers / plants / trees ) 

Try to think of creative ways of taking photos of anything that grows in the ground. You can be as creative as you like and remember that you can crop your images to make more effective photos. Please post your best two pictures on a page before next Friday.
