WHAT IS DUE: 2 Contact Sheets (Min 48 photographs) 12 Final Photographs (all edited in Photoshop) ASSIGNMENT Photograph interesting textures, patterns or repetitions of form found in nature or on constructed objects. Create images in which lines or patterns of lines DIRECT THE EYE. These may be the actual edges of a subject or a repetition of objects implying a line (a line-up). Shoot both INDOORS and OUTDOORS. Shoot both HORIZONTAL and VERTICAL formats. Shoot from a VARIETY of compositions, vantage points, lighting. TIPS: Shoot TIGHT CLOSE-UPS, as close as your camera lens will allow you to focus (@2 ft from the subject) to eliminate unwanted “extras” in the frame and to “flatten” the perspective, making us more attentive to the texture. Try using DOMINANT CONTRAST (a subject against a background that is significantly different from it in tone or texture). Try DRAMATIC LIGHTING (side light from a lamp or window when shooting indoors). Texture is emphasized when light hits a subject from a low angle, producing exaggerated shadows. Try to schedule outdoor shooting for LATE AFTERNOON on a sunny day.
