Week 9:
As the Swedes would say, "Halla class!" (hello class).
Okay, you remember in week 6 when I had you make that folder with several sub-folders inside that? Click here for a reminder, read under number 3.
Here's what I'd like you to work on for the next several days.
1. Photograph at least 20 background images and place in your 'Background Photos" folder
2. Photograph at least 20 different textures and place in your 'Background Textures + Backdrops' folder.
3. Find or create at least 15 items to place in your 'color' folder
4. Find at least 25 pieces of photographic inspiration and place in your 'Pure Inspiration' folder
*Feel free to start filling any other folders at this point with content.
These folders are entirely yours. You put whatever content in them that you'd like. I really want you to start building your own little reference and resource library though. I promise you, it's VERY important. If you continue to be interested in photography/design this "library" of material will become invaluable to you. You could fill them with images you find, things you photograph, things you make and then scan, etc. Use your creativity! As always, have fun!

Week 8:
Bonjour class,
Have I told you all that I'm fans of yours yet? In case it was in question, I am. You have been working really hard the last few weeks and I'd like to reward you for that. So here's what I'd like to see for this week.
1. Take your camera out fora little while and snap away. Take portraits, close-ups, textures/backgrounds (ones you could use for compositing images), landscapes, stars, animals, architecture. In essence, whatever you'd like. I just want you to get out and shoot stuff.
2. Make any image adjustments on the photos you like the best and upload to your blog. I'm not going to give you a specific number of pictures. You could upload 2, 4, 9, 17, 30, or 90 (okay, maybe not 90 or even 30 for that matter c:). Keep in mind though that the images you upload should only showcase your best work.
3. Go and comment on a couple of your classmates work! Be specific. Find a couple things you especially like and something you think could be improved.
4. Have fun!
