Bracketing: Studio Shots

#1: F-Stop

Questions:

2. Which setting did not work at all?

- The setting of 1/60th of a second and F5.6 did not work.
3. Did this exercise help you understand f/stops better? how?

- This exercise helped me to understand f/stops better because I saw that as I changed the f/stops, the lowest f/stop was brighter and the highest f/stop was darker.
​4. If you want to increase the depth of field in a scene and keep the same level of exposure, what are your options?

- You would need to change the shutter speed to change the depth of field, then you would have to change the f/stop to keep the same level of exposure.

The Principles of Design

 Pattern: The repetition of any of the elements of art.

 Balance: The appearance of equal visual weight within a composition.

 Unity: When all the individual parts of your photograph come together and support each other to make one unified image.

 Variety: All the diverse art elements and principles found in a picture, such as light and dark, big and small, smooth and rough.

 Movement: Real or implied motion.

 Rhythm: another type of movement in visual art, created by the organized repetition of art elements like color, value, shape, and line.

 Emphasis: Refers to dominance and subordination, giving some objects greater visual importance.

 Proportion: The relationship between the sizes of objects or components in an image.

Rule of Thirds: Style of composition where you divide your picture space into equal thirds and objects that appear at the intersections of the vertical and horizontal lines look most pleasing to the eye.

Shape: 2D - The area enclosed by an outline.

Form: 3D - Height, width, depth

Texture: The feel, appearance, or consistency of a surface.

Space: The creation of visual perspective and the illusion of depth. The distance around and within an object.
