PROJECT #6: The ORDINARY to EXTRAORDINARY
IN-CLASS DIRECTIONS.
Using the fork you choose, make 12+ distinctly different photographs of your fork(s).
HOMEWORK DIRECTIONS.
Use your own cutlery at home.
First, recreate the Kertesz photo below (Note the light, shadow, etc. Be precise).
Then, using your own cutlery, and maybe food (etc.), photograph these ordinary implements of everyday life in a new way.
Look for reflection, light, shadow, color, geometry, shape, line, and the elements of design for 2D art.
Make 18+ distinctly different images.
RATIONALE.
To practice your ability to take something ordinary, and through composition and light, make it extraordinary.
To test your powers of seeing, composing an image.
