learning about the history of cameras

First Day

making name tags

Day 1

There is so much history about cameras. Have you ever looked back and thought how hard it could have been to make a camera? Well it all started when someone found out that if you put your self in a dark room and made a hole in the wall a reflection of whats blocking the light will show up. Then people thought how do you save that image. That's how it all started now can see how much it has changed from an old fashioned camera to a phone?

Day 2

scavenger hunt

the rule of thirds

The rule of thirds is a rule that states that you don't have to always have things dead center. If you divide your photo into a 3/3 grid you will have 4 intersecting points you want to put your mane idea of the photo on one of your intersecting points. So if you have a flower then you should put the middle of the flower on one of the intersecting points. If you have a landscape then the sky of your landscape should take up 1/3 from side to side or 3/9 using the grid. That's the basics of the rule of thirds

learning about perspective

Day 4

buddy photo

there is lots of different types of perspective such as overlap and linear and more. Overlap perspective sort of matches its name. So if you to things overlaping each other and you look at it from 1 side it will look different then if you look at it from the other side.So you could say from my perspective it looks different.

Today we made are names with different things like a bike rack could look like a M or maybe a U! I made mine with flowers cause I love nature. We also learned about line there are lots of different types of line such as horizontal,vertical,diagonal and converging lines. Lines can also be thick, thin,short or long. That's the basics of line! :D
