Task six: Learning Values



Think about Learning Values, what are they? 
(engagement, time management,  commitment, attitude, understanding)
Create your own tabloid title with the hand-out provided, use this to remind yourself what is needed to succeed with this Learning Outcome


Task Five: write your recipe for your community

Use the worksheet we had for the Voguing Recipe and develop a recipe for one of your own communities. 
For example you might belong to a Sporting Team, then you could base your recipe on getting ready for a game.
Or you might belong to a church youth group, then you could base your recipe on one of your events.
(It would be a good idea if this group was the one you are thinking of making your project about.)

Information: File size, image size, resolution



Information: shutter and aperture


 The faster your shutter the more frozen your movement, the slower, the more blurr.

The smaller your aperture the deeper the DOF (depth of field) the larger the more shallow your DOF.

Remember shutter and aperture are like a see-saw when you change one you affect the other, so you need to know what you want before you start, for example do you want a blurry pic or a deep DOF?

Information: Whitebalance & ISO

Remember light has colour and you need to make sure your white-balance meter is on the correct setting.


ISO is when you chose how light sensitive your camera will be; the higher the ISO the more sensitive. (If you go too high you will get digital noise, look at 12800 as an example.)

Field trip: Ngā Kete Wānanga Marae

I had a great day at MIT's Ngā Kete Wānanga Marae, with kai, raranga and waiata.
Thank you each for participating.
Have a think about how this community differs to the Faculty of Creative Arts community.
Remember the conversation we had about PhotoVoice, the online community that uses Photography to create stories about community groups, check it out at this link.
I am looking forward to hearing more about your own community tomorrow
