Photo 1-Assignment #2 – Depth of Field
Due: Monday, October 22nd
Purpose:To demonstrate your knowledge of Depth of Field by Photographing 3 different strategies to communicate depth of field:
1. Shallow (1.8 – 4.5, large lens opening) Depth of Field
(subject in clear focus, background blurry)
2. Deep (16 – 32, small lens opening) Depth of Field
(subject in clear focus from foreground to background)
3. Selective Focus (foreground blurring, focus on middle ground, your choice of d.o.f. for background)
Record shutter speeds and f-stops for each exposure.
You may photograph anything you choose, as long as you demonstrate your ability to vary your depth of field.
Remember to continue to think about elements of design:
line, form, texture, motion, perspective and light
and compositional strategies:
s-curve, radial, triangular, repetition of elements, diagonal, vertical, horizontal, framing, rule of thirds, leading/implied lines
Especially, concentrate on varying your depth of field.
Use depth of field appropriately,
to enhance or add impact to your images.
