Substitute Plans

Sub Plans for November 5, 2013

I have all new students, this is day 4 in class so they are still getting used to procedures and computer applications!

Period 1: Planning period

walk halls 8:00-8:25

Rosters are on the board behind my desk. Please write agenda on the market board wall Separating the computer area from the studio.

Period 2: video 1.

Please direct students to the class website. They need to click on the 7 deadly camera sins article and read it. Students should define all 7 sins and turn in a copy of the definitions. Under each definition, please have them describe how they could commit that camera sin at school, and them they should describe how they would fix that sin.

Example of what they should write: backlighting

Sin: I would place a person in front of the doors in the lobby and film them. This would create a silhouette.

Correction: I would place that person in front of the bench in the lobby and keep my back to the sun.

When students are finished with the written assignment, they need to continue editing their scavenger hunt movie. The editing guide is available in the bin!

Tutorial: 10:55-11:15

Period 2 students need to sign out for tutorial!

Lunch A: 11:20-11:44

Period 3: photography 1

Students should log onto the class website and click the link that is titled : presentations. I would like them to watch the slideshow titled RULE OF THIRDS. They need to take notes, as they will be tested on the material. Next, they need to do an Internet search and find 10professional photographs that use the rule of thirds, and 5 photos taken by a professional photographer, refer to this list:

Find the following rule of thirds photos:

2 photos with a horizon line on the bottom third line

2 photos with the horizon line on the top third line

6 photos with a focal point aligned to the rule of thirds lines

They should do a google search for these photos, then drag the photo to their desktop

Final photos: find a professional photographer's website and find 5 photographs that they would love to learn to create while in photo class.

Remaining time: they may use photoshop to explore & practice with the tools.

PERIOD 4: graphic design

1. Students should finalize thumbnail sketches for the invitations that they are designing.

2. Students will log into the website and click on the subpage listing for Design Composition.

Students should read the principle descriptions, then do an Internet search to find any design format that clearly uses each of the design principles below:

1. Pattern

Students should find one design for all 7 design principles, and drag the examples onto the desktop on the computer (if they know how to

Remaining time: they may use photoshop to explore & practice with the tools.
