Surveillance 1- LFAS Exposed

First take surveillance photos around the school. Find a space that you find interesting either the background is compositionally, structurally compelling, or there is significant action there that may tell a story. (Remember that changing rooms, bathroom and the staff room are off limits). Set up your camera (like Lorca Di Corcia) and wait for something to enter the frame. stay in the same place for half of the class 20 mins then change your position. Take 25+ frames and when you feel like you have something interesting, come into the class and download them.


Edit your photos- Look them over. Select your 5 favourites. Put your seconds in a file and your trash in a folder for now. Put your top 1 in the share folder title it with your name. Then insert it into a Word document. Answer the following questions:

Reflection Questions.
  1. Where did you set up your camera first?
  2. Why did you select the area to survey?
  3. How long did you remain in the same area?
  4. What sort of images did you capture?
  5. Were you satisfied with the results? Why or why not?
  6. Describe your favourite image; explain why it is your favourite.
  7. How did you feel while you were taking the photos? Anxious, awkward…
