PAINTING WITH LIGHT!

Long Exposure Photography!
Long Exposure Photography!
WHAT ARE WE LEARNING: Painting with Light!
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT: Learning to paint with light is crucial because it gives photographers complete control over illumination, allowing them to transform ordinary scenes into artistic, high-contrast images. This long-exposure technique enables creators to highlight specific subjects, create surreal effects in darkness, and deeply understand how to manipulate light direction, color, and quality.
HOW WILL MY TEACHER KNOW WHAT I LEARNED: You will follow along with instruction and use what we have learned to create amazing photographs!

The Assignment...
For this assignment, you will need to create images utilizing light! The goal is to capture the essential elements of the image and draw the viewer's attention to those specific details. (You will be turning in 6 individual images!)
To do this we will need to work in TEAMS (of 4 or 5)...Each day one student will be the photographer, one will be the subject, the others will aide in moving the light! You will turn in the photos YOU take! (not as a group)
For this assignment, you will need to create 6 DIFFERENT light painting creations...
