Pinhole!

Pinhole!

11s

You need to make a pinhole camera out of any light tight container. Explore with one or multihole pinhole cameras. Once you are finished with your camera, you will need to make 12 exposures with your new camera. Be sure to keep a log of each exposure that you make. When you have completed your 12 exposures, trade your camera with a classmate and make another 6 exposures. Now that you have experience with times for your exposures, experiment with different subjects, movement, multiple exposures, etc. Keep a log of all the exposures that you make. Write down things like exposure time and environmental conditions.

12s

Your challenge is to make a pinhole camera out of an unconventional object! This could be anything that is already light tight or something you MAKE light tight. Examples of unconventional objects could be: garbage bags, vans, your mouth, bread, etc. Use your imagination when thinking of your object. After you have created your camera, you will need to use it to ‘see’ with. Tell a story through the persepective of your camera. Keep a log of all the exposures that you make. Write down things like exposure time and environmental conditions.
