Assessment Task - Produce and Prepare Photo Images

Image One

Part One

Nicole asked us to post up our assessment task we did for her recently.  We had to do a portfolio of technical photos showing exposure, and depth of field.  We also had to scan some photos.

Image Two

My Dream

With the scanned photos we then combined the two in Photoshop to create a new image.  Here the original photos and the final combined image.

Part Two

Take three identical photos.

Overexposed

Correct Exposure

Underexposed

• First photo had to have correct exposure

• Second photo had to be underexposed by two F-STOPS (aperture)
• Third photo had to be overexposed by two F-STOPS (aperture)

Part Three

Slow Shutter Speed

Photograph a moving subject (water, moving figure, etc.) and use a slow shutter speed to record the movement as a blur.

Part Four

Photograph a moving subject (water, moving figure, etc.) and use a fast shutter speed to freeze the subject and capture crisp action.  The frozen subject needs to be in focus, still and sharp.

Part Five - Depth of Field

Narrow Depth of Field

Take two identical photographs of the one subject/object/portrait.  The first shot should have a large depth of field (DOF), where the background is in focus.  The second shot should have a narrow depth of field where the background is out of focus.
