Before you begin, I want you to think about how you want to portray yourself. Have a look at these websites:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/digital-photography-school.com\/self-portrait-photography-tips\">http:\/\/digital-photography-school.com\/self-portrait-photography-tips<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shutterbug.net\/refreshercourse\/portrait_tips\/197\/\">http:\/\/www.shutterbug.net\/refreshercourse\/portrait_tips\/197\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/photodoto.com\/im-ready-for-my-closeup-6-methods-for-perfectly-focused-self-portraits\/\">http:\/\/photodoto.com\/im-ready-for-my-closeup-6-methods-for-perfectly-focused-self-portraits\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>As always, there is no right way of making a self-portrait&#8230;it is totally up to you as it is about self-expression. Please keep in mind that I will be using the one you hand in for our web gallery.<\/p>\n<p>Think about it&#8230;however, we will not be using cameras today.<\/p>\n<p>Today, I would like you to think about John Oliver and why you love it. C&#8217;mon really&#8230; there must be something you really love about it. Our next project is to collect images of John Oliver for a media production for our school. Things to think about, a specific space in the building, the people, the courses, the hiding places, and etc&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>That said, I want you to hand in a written assignment and put it in the handin folder.<\/p>\n<p>1. Describe what it is you love.<\/p>\n<p>2. In your mind&#8217;s eye (your imagination), create 5 images.<\/p>\n<p>3. Talk about the significance. What story are you trying to present?<\/p>\n<p>4. How are you going to create these images? with help, depth of field, noise, motion&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>5. Presentation&#8230;choose your perspective, down low, in angle, up top.<\/p>\n<p>The challenge is creating what you mind sees, but that it the true essence of photography. And that is composing a picture that tells a story. Have a look at this website and click on one of the essays.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/inmotion.magnumphotos.com\/\">http:\/\/inmotion.magnumphotos.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>In Silence is a good one, but a bit depressing.<\/p>\n<p>On a different note, there are still some of you that have not handed in your pictures.<\/p>\n<p>Once you have handed in your pictures and handed in your written assignment, you can have free time.<\/p>\n<p>For those who have, I am pretty pleased with many of them. Well done, I should be getting your marks to you shortly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Hi folks, I am away at Elementary Schools today, once again.
