For the first assignment, expose 1 roll of film. You may use 35mm or 120 film, ISO 400 is recommended. Chose a scene to photograph. You will be making 3 exposures of each scene by following the steps below.
1. Choose a scene to photograph that contains objects and or people that are both close and far away from the camera. A tripod is recommended.
2. Set your camera’s aperture to f/8. Determine the proper shutter speed using your light meter and make an exposure. Do not move the camera after your exposure has been made. Record the aperture, shutter speed and ISO combination on a sheet of paper.
3. Set your camera to its smallest aperture. Use the exposure wheel to determine the proper shutter speed and make an exposure. Do not move the camera after your exposure has been made. Record the aperture, shutter speed and ISO combination on a sheet of paper.
4. Set your camera to its largest aperture. Use the exposure wheel to determine the proper shutter speed and make an exposure. Do not move the camera after your exposure has been made. Record the aperture, shutter speed and ISO combination on a sheet of paper.
5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 until you have finished your roll of film.
Bring your exposed roll of film to class on 8/24/2009. We will be processing our rolls of film and making contact sheets. Please come prepared with 8x10 RC paper and the proper negative storage.
Once your film is processed, place it in a negative preserver and make a contact sheet. From your contact sheet, choose a scene that you photographed. All three exposures of each particular scene should match. Make an excellent enlargement of each of the three exposures. Your enlargements should all have matching tonalities. Your 3 excellent spotted prints, contact sheet and negatives are due on 8/31/2009 at the beginning of class. Please place all assignment materials into an envelope with your name on it. GOOD LUCK!
