With a digital camera (either your own, a borrowed one, or even a disposable one) you need to take the following pictures. If you do not have access to a camera, please see the teacher.

School photography project?
I'd write down all the ones you like, put them in a hat and draw them out one by one. When you pull out a number - say 7. People hit the streets and walk around, (I love walking around down town specifically) and just ask someone you find if you can take their picture for a school project. Some might say no, but you will find someone who doesn't mind. You might even meet a good looking person 2 or some children 6.

Once you pick a number, try and group things together that are similar, ask if you can combine 2 of them and still have them count as 2 - like Love in the Rain or children at sunset.
Reply:Number 1 (texture of a leaf) will require a small modification of your light source.

View your perspective through a leaf with a highly lit backdrop of a high intensity spotlight.

3. Apply any background of a flat horizon (bottom) on between two (opposite bodering) trees.

The rest are self-explanitory.
Reply:Yikes!



Any two of those would make a good assignment. I hope all of the students are advanced photographers and can handle fifteen assignments at a time.



I usually give one or two conceptual assignments, due in two weeks, and have my students shoot at least a roll on each one so we can do the editing together. Then I have them make two 8x10 prints of each of the assignments to be critiqued by both me and their fellow students.



Do you also have to develop (the film) and make prints (in a darkroom)?



Good luck.
