  1. Photo Journalism By Jackson Schreiber and Alex Shulman

  2. What is the Function of a Photo? • To communicate general information very quickly. Photos may communicate emotions as well as facts. They inform and express. • To make more credible. A photograph makes whatever is pictured more true and real. • To add Visual Appeal. Photographs are visual magnets, drawing readers into a page. • To make the story have vitality, but it needs a photograph to highlight that vitality.

  3. What are the Different Camera Settings? • F-Stop indicates the aperture in numbers. • Depth-of-field. The Scale indicates depth-of-field when the camera is focused on a subject at a particular f-stop. • The Shutter Speed indicates how fast the shutter opens and closes. It is measured in fractions of a second.

  4. What is Important About Light and Photos • Lighting is an important factor in the artistic part of your photographs • The light should face the picture. Have all of these – Front lighting, and Back lighting. • Exposure- the amount of light that strikes the light sensitive surface. • If the film becomes over exposed, the picture will look too dark, and if it is under exposed it will look too bright.

  5. What do Photographers Need to Know about Focus, Lighting, Depth-of-field, Moving Subjects, Flash and Glass? • You can freeze moving objects by using shutter speed 1/1000 • To freeze a moving object and blur the background, pan your camera with the subject • Make sure to focus on the picture your taking for it not to be blurry. • A flash will help fill dark shadows and brighten up the picture and person or object in the picture. • The light should face the picture. Have all of these – Front lighting, and Back lighting. • Don’t use a flash setting when your subject is in front of a glass surface or a mirror, as a sharp glare will appear and you will be in the picture. • The area of sharp focus in front and behind of the subject. • Some cameras have preview mode or focus/ring • Twist the ring to focus on the subject

  6. Rule of Thirds • The rule of thirds says that pictures should be taken at one of the four intersecting points on the grid • By the following the rule of thirds, you can avoid this humdrum visual arrangement. • Horizontal lines should be along the top or bottom line of the grid. This photo displays how grid lines help the rule of thirds. This Picture displays the rule of thirds.
