So before we end the game, can you please read what’s written on the slide ate edralyn?

Ayan, thank you po

Motivation

So ayun, It says “You get what you focus on, so focus on what you want”

To put it simple class, our life is comparable to photography.

Bakit po sir? Kase selfie is life? Nooo

Here’s the reason why, in photography po kase, in order for you to capture a great image, or nice view
of an specific place or environment, you have to focus on your subject.

Kase pano po kung yung subject nyo is gumagalaw, do you think you can capture a great image of your
subject? Of course not.

The result can be blurry depending on how fast your subject moves.

If your subject is static or di gumagalaw, then a quick capture is not a problem. But still you need to
focus parin. Kase minsan kahit hindi na gumagalaw yung subject mo, you can still make a mistake.

That’s why class, in photography patience is also required to achieved a great result.

Eh sir anong kinalaman nun sa buhay ng tao?

Just like photography class, we also need to focus. Saan po? Sa ating dreams or goals in life.

If you want to be like this or to be like that, focus on it. You want to achieve this in your life, focus on
that thing. If there’s a lot of negativity affecting your decisions in life, just ignore it, dito ka nakapokus
hayaan mo yung mga bagay na di makakatulong sayo. Just like photography, if you made a mistakes,
repeat it, retake it, because that mistakes will serve as your key to improve yourself. Don’t be rush, na
gusto mo agad ng instant result, No, It’s a big NO for that behavior. Always remember class Be...Patient,
kase everything goes through the process.

Okaayyy po? So ayoonnnn…. I hope I motivated you class with that.

So yun, move on from that, let’s proceed to our discussion.

Now may I ask you class, Who among you here, love taking pictures?

Can you type "Me" in the chat box with an emoji that shows how much you love taking pictures.

Okay, may I see those students who love taking pictures.

(Wait mo magcomment ang karamihan)

Ayann, I can see that majority of you love taking pictures. That's great!

Kahit yung iba senyo puro stolen pic lang kinukuha...

Well actually class, all of us love taking pictures, sino ba naman hindi diba?

Especially if your phone have a High Quality Camera. Cause We all knew class that taking pictures have a
lot of Advantages; Like for example: for Memories, by simply looking at your old photos, you can recall
what happened during that time, what else? for Entertainment, by taking pictures you can serve that as
your stress reliever like for example using the pic that you capture to make a meme, that’s
entertainment, what else? Pwede ring hobby lalo na pag bored ka, and also by taking pictures, you can
also use it as an evidence to prove that you visited this place, you eat on this place, you play, or you
have fun on this place.

So that's why, taking pictures is very useful to us nowadays.

We are aware sa mga bagay na kinukuhanan natin ng letrato. That's right!

But the question is, aware din po ba tayo kung anong tawag sa letrato na kinuhanan natin?

To be honest, hindi diba?

And that's what we are going to discuss today, ano po ba yun? The 3 Basic Types of Photography.

Now class, do you have any idea about these 3 Basic Types of Photography? Or kahit guess lang po?
Anyone?

Try to remember class yung mga naunang 3 items natin sa game kanina, can you recall it?

(Wait na may sumagot)

Ayunnn tama po, very good ate/kuya ____ , So that's the 3 basic types of photography. The Landscape,
Portrait, and Documentary Photography.

Eh sir pano po yung dalawa kanina, yung forest and candids photography?

Mamaya po, malalaman nyo.....

So anyway, let's start with the The Landscape Photography

I'm sure class, familiar na kayo sa word na to eh, especially when it comes to Arts subject madalas
natong nababanggit.

Okay, For you Kuya Christian.. what comes in your mind, when you hear the word landscape? Kahit 1
word or phrase lang po

(Wait for his response)

Okay, Very Good Kuya Christian... Thank you for answering…

Okay class, let's find out, what is the definition of landscape photography.

Can you read the slide ate Patricia...

(Wait for his response)

Okay thank you po

Landscape Photography

So when do we say Landscape Photography class, this is the art of capturing the nature. Meaning to say,
the main focus or subject in this type of photography, was the Nature. Pero ang tanong, sa Nature lang
ba sya naka Focus? Hindi po, according nga sa slide na binasa kanina ni ate Patricia, “ nature and the
outdoors” so meaning to say class, your subject in this type of photography was the view outside, that
means to say if you want to do a landscape photography, you have to do it outside or maybe you can do
it at your windows to capture the view outside.

Para mas madali nyong magets, when it comes to landscape photography class, it’s either natural or
man-made lang yung subject nyo in this type of photography, pag sinabi nating natural, eto yung nanjan
na talaga sa paligid natin, just like the nature. And the man-made naman, well of course these are the
things that the people have made. Just like the buildings or infrastructure.

So what are the common subjects of landscape photography?

Usually yung makikita nating subjects nyan is yung mga bundok, yung mga view na may tubig, like yung
dagat, Trees, and the view of the city, just like what I’ve said earlier.

Gaya nung pinagawa sainyo nung elementary days class, I don’t know if you can still remember that, but
I’m sure karamihan satin nakagawa na nung drawing sa bond paper, yung may bundok tas may araw sa
gitna ng bundok diba? Minsan nga may smily face pa yung araw eh. And sa baba nun, merong kubo at
palayan tas may paletter V pa na mga palay at ibon diba?

Do you remember that class?

(Wait for their response)

Diba? Congrats class marami pala tayo haha,

Of course those students whose not good at drawing, they are the only one who can relate to this.

Yun, so that is also an example na makikita natin sa landscape photography.

Now if I ask you class, what do you think is the ideal or recommend camera position in landscape
photography?

Is it Horizontal or Vertical?

(Wait na may sumagot)

Okay very good, it is the horizontal position.

Ehh sir pano po kung kinapture ko sya in Vertical Position, hindi napo ba sya Landscape Photography?
Actually, Landscape Photography parin sya, any camera position will do, as long as your main subject or
focus in your landscape photography was the Nature or Outdoors Environment. Kaya lang, bakit mas
recommended yung Horizontal Position class? Do you know the reason why?

(Pag walang sumagot)

Okay, It is for a wide range view. For example if you capture the view of the mountain in vertical
position, the result is great kase maganda yung view, but it can be more beautiful if you recapture it in
horizontal position, kase yung ibang di sakop ng camera kanina sa vertical position, masasama na, in
horizontal position. Kaya nga po kung mapapansin nyo class, kapag makikisuyo tayo na magpapicture,
madalas nababanggit natin yung salitang, “Kuya Palandscape mo po”, “Ate Ipalandscape mo po” Diba?
Cause that means you don’t want na eto lang yung masasama sa picture, you want it in horizontal
position kase para mas marami ang makita sa picture. So that’s why in landscape photography, we use
horizontal position for a wide range view.

Is it clear class? Did you understand the Landscape Photography?

Again, when do we say Landscape Photography class, this is the type of photography that focuses on the
nature and outdoors environment. We recommend the horizontal position for a wide range view. Clear?

Yown Very Good

Different Types of Landscape Photogrpahy

Now, proceed to another slide, I have here the different types of Landscape Photography. Ayan po as
you can see in the slide. So dito nyo malalaman class, kung saan ba naca classify yung mga larawan na
madalas nating makita, not only in social media but also when we do searching on google, nakikita natin
to. So tara, let’s find out.

Okay, so kung kanina we are focusing on the backgrounds view, this time we will focus on other subject
naman, which is the person, and that’s what we called Portrait Photography.

So what is Portrait Photography?, can you please read the slide ate Marijoe.

(Wait matapos magbasa)

Okay thank you po

Portrait Photography

In portrait photography class, you are capturing the expression, the emotion, attitude, and the whole
personality or identity of your subject, so as a portrait photographer, dun ka magpopokus sa tao. That’s
why there’s a blurry background included here, kase bakit? para mas nakapokus yung attention ng
viewer sa subject.

Some Portrait Photographers class, considering the background to match with the expression of the
subject. Which is tama naman, kase para mas maganda yung kalalabasan ng picture, like for example; if
your expression is fierce or serious then the perfect background for that is either gray or black or other
dark colors. But if your expression is happy or lively, more likely your backgrounds must be brighter as
day.

Aside from that class, the lighting and posing are also some aspects that must be considered if you want
a great result in portrait photography. Kase imagine class, nagpicture ka lang pero you didn’t considered
the lighting and posing, the result is just plain or normal lang or maybe boring depending on your
expression. Actually yung posing di naman sya masyado required, but the lighting? Yes. Pero may
lighting man o wala, oks lang yun, because these aspects are only considerable if you want to achieved a
great result.

Let me give you an example class. Pero syempre magbibigay nalang tayo ng example, gamitin na natin
pagmumukha natin aba haha.

(Pinakita yung pic)

So ayan as you can see class, ayan yung panahong pogi pa ako haha, deh seryoso,

In this picture class, did I consider the lighting or not?

(Wait for their response)

Yes, I consider the lighting, and to be honest class, so far yan palang yung mga matitino kong pic, yung
iba kase with filters na eh haha,

So yun, that’s the portrait photography class. Again when do we say portrait photography, you are
capturing the emotion, expression, personality or attitude of the person. To put it simple, in this type of
photography, your main focus or subject was the person.

Is it clear class?

(Wait for their response)

Okay, very good, madali lang naman po syang tandaan.

Now, baka magtanong kayo, meron din po bang different types of portrait photography? Meron po.

Traditional Portraits

So let’s start with the Traditional Portraits, from the word traditional, meaning nakagawian or
nakasanayan, it is the usual or common type of portrait photography, like yung mga kadalasan na
ginagawa nyong wallpaper or DP.

Sir, ibig po bang sabihin pati yung mga normal na pagpipicture namin is also considered as traditional
portraits?
Yes po, but it depends on how you capture it. For example, nagpicture ka pero nakapokus lang yung
pagcapture mo sa dimple mo, sa abs mo, sa noo mo, diba?

Now question class, can we consider that as portrait photography?

(Wait for their response)

Of course not, because in portrait photography, uulitin ko lang po, nakapokus yun sa pagcapture ng
attitude,emotion, expression, and beauty of the person. In short, nakapokus lang talaga sya sa tao
mismo. Okay po? And that’s what we can see in traditional portraits, gaya po ng pinakita ko sainyong
picture ko kanina class, that is also an example of traditional portraits.

Yes portrait photography sya, but to be more specific class, it is classified as traditional portraits, is it
clear class?

Candids Portraits

Lifestyle Portraits

Glamour Portraits

Conceptual Portraits

Self Portraits

Close Up Portraits
Group Portraits

Environmental Portraits

Pet Portraits
Now baka po magtanong kayo, is there also a type of photography that includes pet animals like yung
aso at pusa? Meron po

And that’s what we called the Pet Portraits

From the Word Pet means alagang hayop, under parin sya ng portrait photography, so usually class,
thebest examples that we can see in pet portraits are the dogs and cats, since sila yung maaamong
hayop na makikita natin sa loob ng bahay. Sometimes can be wild pero they can be tamed by humans.
But of course other animals can be considered also, gaya ng rabbit, yung parrot, anything that can be
considered as pet. Magkaiba po sila class sa general type ng animal photography which is the Wildlife
Photography. In pet potraits kase class, ang concern mo lang dun is yung kakulitan ng alaga mo pag
pipicturan mona sila, while in wildlife photography class, skills, tapang at may pagiingat ang kailangan
mo, because in some wildlife photography you need to learn the camouflage to avoid being attacked by
other wild animals. Camouflage means, pagbabalatkayo, meaning, in other term pagdidisguise. So yun
po, naintindihan nyo ba yung Pet Portraits? To put it simple, your subject here are the tamed animals.
Okay po?

Documentary Photography

Next let’s proceed to the last type of photography, the Documentary Photography, im sure lahat na tayo
pamilyar na dito diba?

Can you read what is Documentary Photography ate Anacel.

(Wait for her response)

Ayan thank you po

So yun, just like what I’ve said earlier, taking pictures can be used as an evidence, at dito napo papasok
yun sa documentary photography. Admit it or not, mas naniniwala tayo sa letrato kesa sa salita right?

(Wait for their response)

Like for example, ako na mababa lagi sa quiz at exam, sinabi ko na, “Nagchampion ako sa Quiz Bee nung
isang araw”

Maniniwala kayo class o hindi?

(Wait for their response)

Hindi diba?

But if I show you the picture of my trophy that includes my name on it and the date when I won it,
maniniwala na kayo or hindi?

(wait for their response)

Maniniwala na right?
So that’s the purpose of documentary photography, para malaman natin na this event, person, things or
phenomenon actually happened or existed.

Do you get what I mean class?

(Wait for their response)

Did you understand the documentary photography?

(Wait for their response)

Yun thank you po

And now let’s find out ano ba yung ibat ibang sakop, included in documentary photography. So we have
here, apat lang po. The Portraiture, Photojournalism, Street Photography, and Pictorial Recording of Live
Events. So let’s define them one by one.

Portraiture

Okayyy… Portraiture, there goes the key word, It is the art of creating portraits.

Now the question is, bakit ?

That maybe right class, but… No, because in portrait photography class you are focusing on the people’s
beauty, attitude, personality or emotion when capturing them, and most important, most of the
examples of portrait photography why does creating portraits or portraiture under the documentary
photography?

It is

Kase class, portraiture means creating portraits. Isa po sa mga example neto class is yung mga mukha ng
mga Famous Philosopher na nakikita natin sa mga libro

So yan po

Just in case you ask, bakit kasama yung portraiture sa documentary photography?

I have a question class?

Makikilala nyo po ba yung mukha nila kung pangalan lang titignan nyo?

(Wait for their response)

Hindi diba?

For example… Jose Rizal, so for you class na hindi nakita mukha nya, ano yung tanong na papasok sa isip
nyo? Usually gento, anong itsura nya?

Diba po? Tama ba?

Pag narinig nyo yung unfamiliar name but famous person daw, macucurious kayo diba? Ano kayang
itsura nun? Gwapo ba yun? Maganda ba sya? So that’s Portraiture.

Are you getting my point class?

(Wait for their response)

But sometimes class even though that person in portrait was not famous, or more likely common civilian
lang sya, basta you create a portrait of her/him, its under the portraiture. Okay?

Because in portraiture class, it’s purpose is for us to recognize that person.

Do you understand class?

(Wait for their response)

Yun thank you po

Okay next

Photojournalism

Ang kaibahan naman neto class sa portraiture, in photojournalism nafifigure out mo sa letrato kung ano
yung nangyayari during that time. Gumagawa kana ng kwento sa pamamagitan ng letrato.

In newspapers, I don’t know if you still read newspapers class, but I think hindi na haha, pero may mga
part sa dyaryo na may nilalagay yung journalist na kwento including the pictures that they capture.
Dalawa kase yan class, picture and the story, so that’s the components of photojournalism. Wherein
yung picture ang magsisilbing evidence to prove that your story is true. Kase gaya nga ng sabi ko kanina
class, we can’t just believe in words.

So that’s Photojournalism. You are creating a story through the means of photography.

Do you understand class?

(Wait for their response)

Okay thank you po

Next

Street Photography
