Rainy Day schedule :( :( :(

Open a new document in Microsoft Word.

Click “insert” and insert your best photo yet. Resize your photo so it’s small enough to fit in the Word document.

Write a critique of your picture. (At the very least 1 page double spaced) Make your sentences complete and use descriptive language. This will be written like a discussion paper, not a numbered list.  

Here are steps to guide you for each paragraph:

1.     Describe your photo. What is the photo of? What objects can you see in it? Talk about the time of day, location, people, plant life, animals, building or other materials you see.

2.     Talk about the composition. What angles, or viewpoints were used to shoot the photo? Was the rule of thirds used, and how? (What objects or parts of the photo are lined up on what part of the grid)

3.     Describe the use of elements. Is shape used? Texture? Value, color, space, form, line?  Talk about where and how. If an element is not used, its ok to say so, for example: “This photograph does not use color since it is black and white” or simply, “There are no shapes in this photo”.

4.     Describe and discuss what you like about it and why.

5.     Describe and discuss what you think could be done differently and why.

Save your image as lastname_firstname_selfcritique.doc
Tomorrow we will be peer-reviewing them and checking for vocab usage.
