Assignment #4 - Colour Challenge

We will use the Richmond Rd. Campus for this challenge. You need to select a colour and shoot only objects of that colour. By the end of the session, you will be surprised at how much your selected colour jumps out at you. Consider creative ways to capture your colour and remember our "rule of thirds" and "leading lines". Have fun!

Assignment #3 - SMUS Community


We are lucky to go to school in such a vibrant and welcoming community. Your assignment is to take photos that represent the amazing community we have at SMUS. Consider the people that make it special, your favorite places, the beautiful scenery, things that are symbolic of our school, anything that reminds you of our wonderful SMUS community! Try taking shots from different angles – crouch down low, find a way to get up high, try to get something interesting in the background, get in close and use the macro setting; most importantly, have fun!

Assignment #2 - Forced Perspective

Today we will focus on Forced Perspective Pictures. These are the kind of pictures that create an optical illusion where things in the picture seem larger, smaller, closer, or farther away than they really are. 

There are several examples if you follow this link: https://www.google.ca/search?q=forced+perspective+photos&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiJppP6r8TMAhUUImMKHbkeBm4QsAQIGw&biw=1280&bih=678

We will have an entire class to try out some different options. Find a few different people to work with and get creative. Determine a variety of different options before heading out and find new people and props to set up your ideas.
