NAME:

light!
and when the night is cloudy, there is still a light that shines on me...

Objective:
You will chronicle light throughout your day by shooting 24 exposures of 400 ISO film. Through the use of bracketing, spot metering, and the bulb setting you will create compositions that explore different times of day and specific feelings created by that light. You will make 3 final 5 x 7 prints that represent the best of your roll, one from each time of day. (As per usual, you will turn in 3 prints with test strips.)

DIVIDE YOUR ROLL BETWEEN:

morning/evening type light bright outside afternoon light shadows created by light night type light

we are so similar, and yet also totally different

ADVICE:

how does light affect the mood? create clarity, drama, suspense, or mystery! consider what artificial light is available: lamps, streetlights, headlights, etc. explore the bulb setting and bracket your time (try 1/15, 1/8, 1/3, and 1 second, etc.; try abstracting the photo by moving the light, remember to STEADY YOUR CAMERA! make sure you understand how to get the results you want using the camera you have or have borrowed. if you have questions, ASK!
