Macro Photography By Francine

For this assignment, I chose to do macro photography. I chose this because I wanted to capture up close photos that show small details. I used different kinds of lenses and the focus was on manually. I had to focus it myself to get the picture I wanted. Throughout this entire assignment, I had a lot of fun because I really had to get close to the subject to capture a good photo. For one of the photos, I had a photo where there was a bee on a flower and I had to be real careful since I didn't want to get stung by the bee.

I chose macro photography as my second assignment in term 3. The goal for this assignment was to produce small objects as if they were larger than their life-size.  With this style of photography, I was able to have a lot of control over my settings which allowed me to really get a good understanding of all the camera functions as I always had to adjust to capture the optimal photo.

This assignment is called the "Macro Photography Assignment". The intent was to take pictures at a very minuscule scale and enlarge regular size items to create a new perspective for the image.
The beginning of the assignment was difficult for me when getting close to the photo I wanted it would blur. Once learning to use the reverse lens it helped tremendously as I could take shots clearly at a close range. The technique I used was rocking back and forth as I adjusted the lens, I watched multiple you tube videos to help configure my photos. Overall, I enjoyed this assignment and would love to do it again.

This type of technique shows a slightly larger subject of the photograph. Fact: Macro comes from the Greek word Makros meaning large. This assignment was quite difficult to work with. It was frustrating to focus on a part of the subject. Many pictures were taken on subjects to get it focused. Lots of time was used to hopefully put all of this together and tried my best to finish it up in time. I look forward to using this technique in the future as I take my photography skills with me.

 ALPHABET ASSIGNMENT
My second assignment of term 3 was the Alphabet Assignment. Our task was to walk around and take pictures of what appears to be a letter by examining carefully. The goal was to find letters outside in the environment, not self-made or found on a sign. I didn't get the opportunity to explore more of Winnipeg's nature and environment but it was still quite fun and adventurous. This project took way more time than I expected, but this work of art shouldn't be rushed. It takes time and careful eyes to examine a figure from a unique subject. Overall, I found this assignment adventurous but also frustrating as it took time and that I was not exposed to more of the environment. Next time if I do this assignment again or another that's similar, I will explore more of Winnipeg and remember to take my phone out if there are interesting and unique photos.

               I chose to do this assignment in GCT for term 3, we were assigned to take pictures from very close up angles. We only could use cameras and were unable to use our phones for this project, because our phone cameras could easily take the photos needed for the assignment. Our cameras were set up on manual focus to learn how to take theses photos manually. I really enjoyed this project, because i was very interested in the close up shots and really wanted to take these types of photos myself. I always enjoy walking around the school or walking around anywhere taking pictures for my GCT assignments. Looking around places and noticing the different types of pictures i could take for my projects.

Macro photography is one of our assignments. It is usually just extreme -close ups of objects where the size of the subject in the photograph is greater than that of a life size. In this type of photography, most subjects such as small objects and insects are used. Instead of using auto focus, we instead had to use manual focus so that we would have more control over how the picture would turn out. I found out that lenses such as 50mm to 200mm are great lenses, unfortunately i could only get my hands on a 55mm lens. the assignment was quite fun and challenging at the same time.

In this project, the task was to find the alphabet letters on any sort of pre-made structure/items. The beginning was challenging but the more careful I looked things started to appear. The process took time and exploring. Although it was difficult yet time-consuming it was another art of photography I didn't know about. The overall assignment was very enjoyable and I would definitely consider doing it again. For the future, I would like to challenge myself and explore Winnipeg more and remember to use my phone when finding interesting shots

Stop Motion

April 11, 2019 allyza tabirara 0 Comments

For this project i decided to do stop motion. I never really had experience shooting stop motion and dont personally like movies created from stop motion. But i really wanted to try something new and fun to do. Although it was very time consuming taking a picture every time you move your subject and getting your sd card filled with 500 images that look very similar the overall result is pretty entertaining. I also had to use a new software called Movie Maker which i heard before but never used. I used that to piece and organize my images and change the duration of the video. There was suppose to be another clip put in of cards but i am still currently having trouble with exporting it.

For this assignment, we were told to choose one of the projects we were shown. I chose the Alphabet Photography because I expected it to be easy but in fact, it wasn't at all and it was very time-consuming. We were required to take photos of the 26 letters in the alphabet in nature, signs, shapes, and our everyday items. It forced me to be creative and to have a sharp eye just so that I could picture the different letters of the alphabet. Finding a few letters were easier than other letters in the alphabet but I still ended up with all of the letters for this project. I really had quite an adventure looking for these letters and I enjoyed looking for them.

This is my first assignment for term 3. For this assignment, our main idea is to find 26 letters. I had fun going around and looking for letters but it was hard to find Pacific letters. I had to be careful when looking for the letters because sometimes I just need to look closely to find the letters that I needed. At first, I thought this would be easy but it turned out to be difficult I some ways. But it was worth it because it was quite an adventure.

This assignment we were required to take pictures of figures, shapes, structures, and other things that look like a letter from the alphabet. Easier said then done. It was very time consuming in my opinion, because I wasn't able to find things that look like letters.  We are also required to have creativity and being more open to an idea such as a letter looking like something. In my experience, it required me to look beyond things for what they were and make out letters. I didn't realize how many everyday structures, objects, and other things can look like letters. They turned out great in my opinion, and worth the time I spent. I definetly enjoyed this assignment, and I assume others did aswell.

In the last term of school, the GCT class has gotten a few assignments and the students got to pick one of those multiple assignments. The one I had chosen was Macro Photography. The students of GCT had to go around the school or at home and take photos close to the subject of their choice. In the slide deck below shows the Macro photos I have taken over the past week:

We were given an assignment to complete (of our choice). I chose Macro Photography, which creates quite interesting photos that give people another view on certain objects. I included 10 macro photography photos in my slide deck. Macro photography involves being completely zoomed in on your subject whilst using manual-focus (so that auto-focus won't make your photos blurry) which allows me to adjust the amount of focus and where my camera should be focusing.

Here is my slide deck for Macro Photography.

For my assignment we got to use the camera to take macro photography. Marco photography is close up pictures of objects, when the object is close up you get to see the tiny things such as texture of the object you are taking.

Macro Photography is the art of taking close up pictures that show details unable to be seen with the human eye. It gives us a glimpse of the small world. I selected Macro Photography as my first assingment in term 3. It was a bit frustrating to focus on a small part of the subject but worth the time since the pictures turned out wonderful. Although simultaneously, it was fun because I had series of objects that I wanted to see up close. In general, I enjoyed doing Macro Photography despite the time it took for some images to focus. I'm looking forward to incorporate the new concepts I've learned later on in my life.


My Top 10 Tips for Macro Photography
1) When taking a macro, you should pay attention to the lighting. Personally I found it best to have your light source directly at your subject.
2) It's okay if your image isn't that close to the subject because you can always crop it in photo shop.
3) Use a diffuser. If you don't know what a diffuser, its anything white the makes your light source bigger. If you're cheap like me, I just used a piece of white paper.
4) The background doesn't matter if you're using a high aperture since the background will blur anyways.
5) Make sure you're camera is on burst mode since not all pictures are gonna be focused.
6) Try to get on the same level as your subject, it makes the picture more interesting.
7) Some interesting photos to take are of insects, bugs, flowers, plants, abstract images, and fruits.
8) To get the most out of available depth of field, select a small aperture like f/16 or even f/22.
9) If your subject is not focusing dont move the camera, move the subject.
10) Explore unusual angles, the picture doesn't always have to be on top of your subject

For our first GCT assignment we needed to choose what we wanted to do between multiple different assignments. Out of all the assignments, I chose to do "Macro Photography". The task for this was to create a slide deck of pictures that have been completely zoomed in. When taking Macro Photography you want to have manual focus ON. The manual focus lets the photographer take a crisper and better focused picture.

For this assignment I got to play around with the idea of macro photography, macro is essentially extreme close ups on regular objects which turns normal everyday things, like pencils, locks, etc. Into interesting pieces of eye candy for your photographs.

Hello again! Here is my first assignment for term three of my GCT course. This is called the Alphabet Photography. Our focus was to find all 26 letters of the alphabet in nature, on man-made signs or is created from everyday things. It was quite difficult to find the letters, but in the end, it was an adventure. I was actually looking forward to doing this after seeing grade 9s from the previous years post their photographs on Instagram. I felt inspired by them so I decided to do this as my first assignment of the third term. My final process for this assignment does not look as interesting but at least it was worth giving my best effort to completion.

In GCT we were given a variety of assignments. I chose to tackle alphabet photography as my first assignment. Alphabet photography consists of 2 main components; capturing letters within the environment, and manipulating the environment to create letters. Although they may be hidden and unnoticed, letters surround us everywhere in our everyday life. Whether it is our jeans we are wearing forming "y", the banana we are about to eat creating a 'c', or the fruit loops in our bowls swirling into an "a". The number of letters that surrounds us is endless. The second part of alphabet photography is manipulation. We are able to create any letter of our choosing with the right items and positions. For example, placing sticky notes to make 'n', using dominos to form "k", or even placing blueberries in oatmeal to create "r"!

Alphabet Assignment By Yana

In this assignment, we explored the city to look for letters. The assignment was to capture pictures with the alphabet. We were given 2 weeks for this project. We were also given the choice to work with partners. I chose to work with Haya. We both took pictures for this assignment. Me and Haya went to the Forks and the Human Rights Museum to search the alphabet. I realized finding letters like "g, q" were very hard. I think this was one of my favorite assignments to do in this class. I enjoyed exploring our city and finding letters.

       The topic of this assignment was Alphabet Photography. Alphabet photography captures a letter in the alphabet naturally or in signs. We were given the option to work individually or in pairs, I chose to work with Yana. For this assignment Yana and I took pictures during our class time in school and during the spring break outside of school. We walked around the Forks with other classmates who worked on the same assignment.  Keeping an eye out for one of the 26 letters in the alphabet was an interesting experience that kept us aware of our surroundings. When we finished gathering two of each letter, we chose the one we thought was best to use. We then cropped our photos and created a slide containing the whole alphabet.

Alphabet Assignment by Maegan

April 09, 2019 maegan ilagan 0 Comments


It is astonishing how nature is able to replicate other aspects of nature and with the right creative eye, we are able to identify them all around us. The Alphabet Photography Assignment requires us to identify and capture the letters of the alphabet in the environment or in already made structures. During spring break, I came along with a group of friends to stroll around the Canadian Museum of Human Rights, The Forks and Downtown Winnipeg wherein we took most of our photos. To some degree, this assignment has proven to be more complex than our previous assignments. Several factors that we have separately focused on in other assignments have been combined in this one assignment in order to create a satisfactory output. Such factors to consider prior to and while capturing the photos were the lighting, angle, composition and  accuracy of the objects in relation to the letter. Additionally, we were required to take pictures of objects that start with each corresponding letter of the alphabet. I approached this second part a bit differently as I used a similar technique for most of  my photos as I played with using light, shadows and negative space. This in turn had created a cohesive appearance to a large portion of my photographs. Overall, this assignment was a great opportunity for us to showcase everything we had learned in our GCT class up to date while making use of our creative senses.

MACRO PHOTOGRAPHY
This is my first assignment of term 3 and it was about Macro Photography. Our objective was to take pictures up close to make it appear bigger than it's normal life-size. Macro is usually taken from small objects or living organisms such as insects as they are quite small and provide unique features. When taking Macro photos, I use manual focus rather than autofocus as it enables the ability to control and adjust the focus of the object and its surrounding. Lenses that go pretty well with Macro Photography are 50mm to 200mm but I prefer 50mm as it was much easier to take pictures of small objects that fit into the picture. Unfortunately, there weren't any flowers or insects to take pictures of due to the cold conditions. It would've been more fun and interesting to take pictures of nature with the flowers and insects alongside but there was no chance of it happening, sadly. Despite not being able to take pictures of the beautiful flowers with insects, this was still a fun project as it was a different style of photography and was pretty interesting.

In this assignment we worked on Macro photography. Macro photography is extreme close up of small objects or normal objects in which the size of the object in the photograph is greater than life size. Usually living organisms or small objects are used to take macro photos but anything object is good to be used. Instead of auto focus, macro uses manual focus where get to control the focus of the object and the background. Some good lenses for macro photography are 50mm to 200mm. But i prefer 50mm because it was much easier for me take pictures of the small object and fit it into the picture. This assignment was very fun to do because i learned a new style of photography and new trick to take pictures

This is my first assignment in term three. This assignment was called the Alphabet Assignment. Our goal is to find letters in the environment that isn't man made or found on a sign. I got to visit many places such as Downtown and the Human Rights Museum, which made this assignment more exciting. The second part of this assignment was to find a matching object that starts with the same letter. This part of the assignment was the most simplistic and that is where I tried some photography skills that I have learned so far. Overall, I found that this assignment was an adventurous one and got me to open up and take pictures on how I want to take them and to refer to photography skills I have already learned.
