Shutter Speed Pre-Assignment

For this assignment we will start on a shutter speed of 1/200 and an IOS of 800. We will be trying to catch images such as the works of Eadweard Muybridge. For this assignment I plan to take photos of my fellow students jumping in different areas with different elements involved. I plan mostly to shoot on school grounds because of the fact that i will be doing the assignment during school time. I was really inspired by the pictures on the blogpost about the assignment, especially the one of the apple.

Pre Assignment Near and Far

Our assignment this week is to go out and get landscape photographs that has everything in front in focus as well as everything in the back in focus. To do this we will have to set our aperture setting at the lowest it can go so the smallest hole is taking the picture, we may even need a tripod for this assignment. I intend to use a cannon camera if using my phone proves to hard, but i want to see what my phone camera is capable of. I would like to do all the assignments in this class with my phone.
