Workshop - Light painting
Digital photography is a very interesting activity for young people. It teaches them to look differently and gives them the necessary technical knowledge about photo cameras. Consequently, there are several photographic techniques that are possible by using shutter speed and aperture. One of these is Long shutter photography'. (photographing with long shutter speeds)
In this challenging workshop, students will learn to use this technique to experiment with the shutter speeds of the photo camera. They will be divided into small groups. Armed with a tripod and a photo camera, they will set off. In and around the school, they will look for places that are 'scary' enough to take ghostly pictures. They will do this by using movement and different long shutter speeds. The aim is to take photos that give the impression of ghosts. At the end, the results will be discussed in class.
Key objectives
Learning the medium of photography by working with different shutter speeds, as well as understanding other technical capabilities of a photo camera. In addition, the sense of composition, expression and visual language is strengthened. The pupil learns to use visual or auditory means to report on participation in artistic activities, both as a spectator and as a participant. (core objective 51) The pupil learns to reflect orally or in writing on his own work and the work of others, including artists. (core objective 52)
