TUE: Photowalk 1 - The rule of Thirds

NO Computers


"[Photography] is an immediate sketch, done with intuition, 
and you can't [really] correct it..." 
Henri Cartier-Bresson

YOU must take pictures today 
and for each
you must be able to explain WHY you took it

Daily Learning Target(s):  
  • I can take multiple photos that demonstrate the RULE OF THIRDS
  • I will learn to take better pictures - even with a crappy camera
Homework:  
  • Take photos... If you LIKE the photos you take can you explain WHY you like them more than just talking about liking the subject of the photo?
Announcements: 
  • We are going out EVERY WEEK DURING THIS UNIT to take pictures - you MUST have or borrow a properly set-up phone 
Photo Unit Reminders:
    • John will mock your angled pictures unless you can explain to him why you angled your phone
    • All photos taken must be ONLINE @ PHOTOS.GOOGLE.COM before the next class - we do NOT upload our cell phone photos in class.
    • Use a selfie to demarcate photographers when sharing a phone
    Agenda: 
    • Photowalk [60]
      • Your GOAL is to take multiple pictures that demonstrate the Rule of Thirds
      • The Rule of Photo Walks [10]
        • You MUST be able to see JOHN @ ALL TIMES
        • You MAY NOT be more than 1/2 block away from John, who will try to walk in the middle of the pack
        • You MUST NOT CROSS ON RED.  I will give you an NC if you jaywalk.  Just wait for the green.  We will wait for you.
        • YOU must take pictures today and YOU must be able to explain WHY you took it 
        • You MAY NOT go inside ANY business or building - even if they say you can [do NOT ask]
        • You may not sit on any cars, climb on any walls, or otherwise do anything but walk on the sidewalk unless John specifically tells YOU that you can.
        • You MAY take a picture of anyone or anything you can see from outside
          • It is polite to ask permission if you want to take someone's picture. If they are the SUBJECT of the picture then ask.
          • If they are just "in the picture" and it isn't "of them" then permission is not necessary and will slow you down.
      • Walk [50]
