Photographic Compositions

Objective: Create a portfolio that is a collection of photographic compositions and techniques.

This is a formative assessment designed for you to demonstrate your understanding of the basic "rules" of composition.

Soon, we will be moving onto taking our own images. However, for this assignment, you are going to mine for and collect images and create a slide show showcasing a collection of photographic compositions and techniques. You will sort through the web and choose EIGHTEEN images that each display a specific composition rule or technique. You will combine the images into a google slide presentation and label each specific image with its corresponding rule/technique.

You will create a title page that includes a written description of why you think composition rules and techniques are important in photography.
