Next, each group will get a client they will photograph for, using studio lighting. Your group will either get food, clothing, or products as the subject matter from your client. Each group will get a brief description of who their client is, what they need photographed, and some inspiration images chosen to help your group in photographing. The groups will use a corresponding page on Mahara HERE to learn about their client and document their process, from initial planning to final images. This will require planning outside of class and then scheduled shooting in class this week and after spring break.
You will be partnered with another AP Photo 2 or 3 student in order to offer her or him feedback on their AP Concentration. I specifically chose who to partner you with based on your work and concentration theme.
You can go HERE to see a list of all students and follow the link to their Mahara page. At the bottom of their Concentration page you will write feedback, answering the following questions about their work in complete sentences (so your person knows what the question is): 1. Before reading their artist statement write what you believe their concentration is based on what you see. (Now go read their statement and comment on the difference or similarity). 2. Identify two strengths that you see in this student's work/approach. Refer to works in their portfolio to justify your response. 3. Identify a suggestion for improvement for their portfolio. This could be a formal or technical consideration in their work, or maybe an encouragement to explore a direction further. Be constructive! 4. An important element of the AP score is that there is a visual and compositional connection between all 12 of the concentration pieces. Comment on what you see as the visual connection between their images or, if there isn't enough of one, give her or him an idea of how this visual connection could be created as they shoot more AP images. 5. Leave some other comments on their work or ask a question. See the list HERE to find your partner! |
