DIRECTIONS Preface For this assignment, you will be taking self-portraits using the self-timers on your cameras. Your self-portrait should reflect complex thought and reflection on the values that you believe represent your personality; moreover, your self-portrait should also demonstrate your knowledge of the basic principles of design and reflect at least two Elements of Art. These s will be taken using the self-timer and should be taken using the Shutter Priority Mode of your camera; we will go over in class how to use this feature. Moreover, time in class will be given to edit your s.

2 Instructions Please note: There will be TWO separate grades associated with this assignment. One grade, a quiz grade, on the topic of Shutter Speed, and the other grade, an assignment grade worth 100 points, for your actual s. The quiz grade will be determined by percentage of questions correctly answered, and your grade by the rubric. 1) Think about who you are as a person. What do you value in life? What kind of personality do you have? Think about the things that make you YOU. Then, think about how you can symbolize those things in a picture. 2) Your task is to take a self-portrait using the self-timer on your camera, utilizing your knowledge of the Elements of Art and Design. Your self-portrait should reflect complex thought and reflection on the values that you believe represent your personality; it should also reflect use of one of the subject placement methods covered in class. 3) Your must exemplify the use of at least two Elements of Art. You may use any two of the total seven that you wish. Time in class will be designated on September 1st to review the seven Elements of Art. PLEASE NOTE: Keep in mind that your self-portrait MUST exhibit your face! This is a crucial part of the latter editing aspect of the assignment (see 5 below). 4) You will be given class time to practice taking s using the self-timer of your camera. Moreover, your pictures must be taken using the Shutter Priority Mode on your camera. Time in class on September 1st will be designated to review the definition and uses of Shutter Speed, and how to use Shutter Priority. 5) There will be a quiz on the use of Shutter Priority Mode in class on September 6th. Notes and handouts will be available on the server. 6) After the quiz, time will be given in class for you to edit your self-portrait. In class on September 6th, we will cover how to use basic retouching editing techniques in Adobe Photoshop. Then, on September 8th, you will be given class time to retouch your self-portrait. 7) You must turn in your self-portrait for a grade into the server by September 12th. Please drag your photos into the A3-Self Portrait folder in your class s server group. Label each one of your pictures, Lastname_Firstname_A3 (What Elements of Art You Used).

4 ELEMENTS OF ART REVIEW LINE: A continuous mark. Lines can be horizontal, vertical, diagonal, straight, curved, or thin. SHAPE: A geometric structure that expresses length and width. FORM: A three-dimensional object that expresses length, width and depth. SPACE: The area around and between objects. It is the illusion of depth in a two-dimensional surface.

5 COLOR: Light that is reflected off objects. It has three characteristics: hue, value and intensity. TEXTURE: The surface quality of an object. Can be rough, smooth, soft, hard, etc. VALUE: How light or dark an object is. Used to express shading in art.

6 SHUTTER SPEED & USING SHUTTER PRIORITY MODE SHUTTER SPEED: Controls how fast the shutter of a camera opens and closes. A camera s shutter influences how much light falls upon the digital sensor In other words, Shutter Speed affects how much light the camera sees FAST VS. SLOW SHUTTER SPEED: Shutter Speed is measured in terms of seconds and fractions of a second. The more seconds the Shutter Speed is, the longer the camera shutter remains open. The longer the shutter is open, the more light the camera will see. This means that if you have a long Shutter Speed, your camera will take in more light. For this reason, long Shutter Speeds are good for taking s at night or in dimly-lit settings. A Shutter Speed that would be considered long would be 5, 10, or more seconds. When the Shutter Speed is too fast to be measured in seconds, it is measured in fractions of a second. The faster the Shutter Speed, the less light the camera will see. This means that if you have a fast Shutter Speed, your camera will take in less light. For this reason, fast Shutter Speeds are good for taking s in areas that are over-exposed (for example, a sunny sky). A Shutter Speed that would be considered fast would be 1/500, 1/1000, or even 1/2000. CONTROLLING BLUR: Manipulating Shutter Speed is a good way to control the crispness of your s. If you are taking pictures in a well-lit area of an object that is moving fast, using a fast Shutter Speed would enable you to snap a crisp of the moving object. For example, if you are outside on a sunny day, your Shutter Speed should be set high, or fast. This fast Shutter Speed means that your camera is able to take pictures of incredibly fast things. In this example, if you see a hummingbird outside, your camera would be able to capture a clear picture of the hummingbird without blur by using a fast Shutter Speed. SHUTTER PRIORITY MODE: Shutter Priority Mode is a Mode on your camera that allows you to set the Shutter Speed of the camera without having to worry about adjusting other settings; it automatically adjusts the remainder of the camera settings based off of your chosen Shutter Speed. When Shutter Speed is your number one priority in a picture, or when you are unsure of how to adjust your other camera settings to adjust to a certain setting, you should use Shutter Priority Mode.

7 EXAMPLES AND APPLICATIONS FAST VS. SLOW SHUTTER SPEED Example One-- This was taken of an object that is extremely bright (the sun). When taking pictures of the sun, less amounts of light should be taken in by the camera sensor in order to achieve a picture that is not overexposed. The Shutter Speed used to take this was incredibly fast (for example, 1/2000th of a second). What the picture would look like with a Shutter Speed too low:

8 Example Two-- This was taken during an extremely dark time (at night). When taking pictures of dimly-lit areas, more amounts of light should be taken in by the camera sensor in order to a picture that is not underexposed. The Shutter Speed used to take this was very long (for example, 10 seconds). What the picture would look like with a Shutter Speed too high:

9 CONTROLLING BLUR Example One-- This was taken of a fast-moving bird. In order to take s of subjects that will not be blurry, you should manipulate your Shutter Speed to be faster. Example Two-- This was taken of an object that is relatively still. However, the came out blurry. This means that the was taken with too low of a Shutter Speed. In order to improve this picture, you might have suggested to the er to use a faster Shutter Speed.
