PH222: W5A1: Feedback

Hi Melinda, 

Below you will find my feedback for your W5A1 for 2 out of the 3 categories in the rubric.  Feedback has been provided to you in the form of “group video feedback”.  Please ensure that you watch the entire length of the video in order to gain the most insight.

RE: Submitted an overall shot of the studio setup and three group portraits using required equipment that used either a 3- or 4-light set up with a minimum of 3 people in them that:
  • Have correct exposure and demonstrate technical knowledge of camera and lighting control.
  • Exhibit creativity with angles and composition (moving camera and subject frequently to explore the angles).
  • Attention to line and other design elements.
  • Followed instructions and requirements for assignment.
RE: Posted a contact sheet containing a minimum of 36 photographs made using required equipment and included a 150-word explanation about the photographic process.
