Carolynn Helton's Classes
This site shows all the classes I have taught or currently teach. My goal is to have all the curriculum available here online for students, parents and myself. Currently I am teaching Photography/Yearbook, Art Exporations, Video/Media, Leadership and Mixed Media Arts at ERCLC (Eleanor Roosevelt) .
Photo Composition
Every 3 days you will be shown a powerpoint on each of the Photo Compositions. You will need to turn in 3 photo's (different subjects and backgrounds) for each which is a photo a day. For the this section, photos all need to be edited with basic editing only. Adjust contrast and color to look realistic with some contrast. Black and white is allowed. 1 of the 3 has to be on a dslr the other two can be on your cell phone.
Research Part -
When we start this project, you will have one week to pick from this website one of the 25 iconic photographers in history. You will need to do research and present either in presi or PowerPoint and turn in through Jupiter grades as either a link or a file. It needs 5 slides. First is an intro and about the photographer, next 3 are on an image each that you picked by them and your response in equivalent to 1/3 of a word doc page at size 12 font or more. The last is your reason for picking this photographer and your thoughts on his or her life and what maybe their inspiration.
