2. Review for the mid-term exam
2017 midterm exam study sheet rev 12_3_17
Photography
is the science, art and practice of creating durable images by recording light
or other electromagnetic radiation, either chemically by means of a light-sensitive
material such as photographic film, or electronically by means of an image
sensor.
The
word photography comes from two ancient Greek words: photo, for “light,” and
graph, for “drawing.” “Drawing with light” is a way of describing photography.
A
photograph can be a portrait, selfie, street scene, still life, a
historical document that is frozen time, a landscape, and much more.
Camera:
An optical device for taking photographs, generally consisting of a lightproof
enclosure having an opening or aperture with a shuttered lens through which the
image of an object is focused and recorded on a photosensitive film, plate, or
a sensor in digital photography.
A
camera obscura (Latin: “dark chamber”) is an optical device that led to
photography and the camera. The device consists of a box or room with a hole in
one side. Light from an external scene passes through the hole and strikes a
surface inside, where it is reproduced, rotated 180 degrees (thus upside-down),
but with color and perspective preserved. The image can be projected onto
paper, and can then be traced to produce a highly accurate
representation.
The
Greek philosopher and scientist Aristotle (384-322 BCE); Mozi (470 to 390 BCE),
a Chinese philosopher; and Euclid, born unknown (mid-4th century BC)
died unknown (mid-3rd century BC), all contributed observations knowledge
about this phenomenon.
Study
the information on this link:
Lenses
and mirrors were added to the camera obscura during the Renaissance.
In the
mid-1820’s, a metal plate, coated with a light-sensitive emulsion was added to
create the first photograph. These photos were called daguerreotypes.
Be able
to identify a closeup photo, line photo, geometric shape photo, rule of thirds
photo, organic shape photo.

The
Vocabulary of Art & Photography
art
elements & principles of design:
Art
Elements
Line: A
line is a path left by a moving point. A continuous mark on a surface.
What
are the functions of line?
1. to
outline a shape
2. to
create movement and emphasis
3. to
develop pattern and texture
4. to
shade and model using hatching, crosshatching and stippling.
Shape
is a two dimensional area with identifiable boundaries.
What
are the two broad categories of shape?
1.
Geometric shapes - mechanically drawn lines, squares, rectangles, circles. We
see them in architecture and manufactured items.
2.
Organic shapes - are shapes based on forms of nature, which are usually
rounded, irregular and curving. Leaf, seashells, flowers. We see them in nature
and with characteristics that are free flowing, informal and irregular.
Value -
is the lightness or darkness of a color or photo
•
High-Key is where the picture is all light values.
•
Low-Key is where the picture is all dark values.
• Value
Contrast is where light values are placed next to dark values to create
contrast or strong differences.
• Value
Scale is a scale that shows the gradual change in value from its lightest
value, white to its darkest value black.
Texture
refers to surface quality.
• Real
Texture is the actual texture of an object. Artist may create real texture in
art to give it visual interest or evoke a feeling. A piece of pottery may have
a rough texture so that it will look like it came from nature or a smooth texture
to make it look like it is machine made.
•
Implied Texture is the where a two-dimensional piece of art is made to look
like a certain texture but in fact is just a smooth piece of paper. Like a
drawing of a tree trunk may look rough but in fact it is just a smooth piece of
paper.
Principles
of Design
Emphasis:
a
principle of design by which the artist or designer may use opposing sizes or
shapes, contrasting colors, or other means to place greater attention on
certain areas or objects in a work of art. Emphasis is achieved by dominance
and subordination, bright against dull, light on dark, large among small, etc.
What
are 3 ways you could create emphasis in a photograph?
Contrast: a
principle of design that refers to differences in values, colors, textures, and
other elements in artwork to achieve emphasis and interest.
Movement: a
principle of design that refers to the arrangement of parts in artwork to
create a flow of the viewer’s eye through the repeated arrangement of line,
shape, color, texture or value; through the orderly positioning of objects;
through contrasting positive and negative shapes; through contrasting sizes; or
through gradation of colors and values.
Dominance:
One area in a photo stands out more than others
review
and know:
scroll
down to “rule of thirds”. Be able to draw the rule of thirds.
Photoshop
Save
photos into your Documents folder
The
move tool lets you move different images in a Photoshop document
In this
class, photos that are being sent via e-mail should be saved as a JPEG
In this
class, we sent an email with the photo included as an attachment
In this
class, we converted color photos to black and white by going to
Image>Mode>Grayscale
Photos
are lightened or darkened by using the Levels adjustment.
To
resize a photo in proportion, you should select Edit>Free Transform. The
press and hold the Shift key while dragging a corner up inward to scale down
and outward to scale up.
When
viewing online images, a resolution of 1000 pixels suggests the photo is “high
resolution”
To cut out or delete a large area of a
solid color, like a solid white background, use the Magic Eraser Tool.
