Photo 12- Bubbles!!!

Principles of Design  ……………………………

Balance, Contrast, Emphasis, Movement, Pattern, Repetition, Rhythm, Unity/Harmony.

Photograph a simple subject with a variety of backgrounds, angles, lighting and distances using principles of design.

What to do ………………………………………

Bubbles- a simple subject packed with potential symbolism. You are to take your Bubbles and your camera everywhere. Construct and design frames using the principles of design placing your bubbles in different scenarios each time. Use the Principles of Design definitions from your work sheet as your guide and incorporate a least one of each principal into your series. Really push the boundaries, meaning, and visual concept.
Take some wild and crazy photos, choose digital or both digital and B/W film. Experiment with lighting, back and front, colour balance (digital) and filters or filter effects.

Make 2 + contact sheets, five- working prints for your PhotoDiary, and one 8 x 10 of your best for your porfolio. We will have a critique on the due date. Post best image on the “Lunatic Fringe”.
