Turn in the contact sheet when everything is done so I can put in grades and check you out without any outstanding obligations.<br /><br />For non-graduates, there are six class periods remaining. We need to figure out who is shooting graduation and who is shooting senior celebration. These are the final photo assignments for the year (unless there are home games for post-season sports play).<br /><br />It's bee a great year, keep your momentum going for a few more weeks.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7414270409184541855-2708068105183410638?l=derbyphotoj.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Porterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02482418851016429381noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7414270409184541855.post-47513399595715567232010-03-25T11:12:00.000-07:002010-03-25T11:14:18.251-07:00If you are a senior in photojournalism, the due date for the online portfolio is Tuesday, May 18, your final day in this class.

So you will complete three of these. This will make our Friday critiques difficult, but we will make do.<br /><br />The other three assignments are:<br />• Select up to 10 photos to be considered for the 2010-11 Derby Calendar. The photos should all have Derby High School or Derby students in them. You should have a variety of sports and student life photos. <br />• Photo Story: You may choose the topic of your choice but you are highly encouraged to choose a DHS topic. You will tell a story with photos and captions from beginning, middle to end. Include at least five photos with overview, detail and action shots. <br />You can view examples of photo stories at www.osupj.blogspot.com in the December 2009 entries. <br />This assignment will take some time. It is not a one time shooting event. You should spend time planning when you will shot, shot a few different days and then write complete captions.<br />• Online portfolio. See the entry explaining the portfolio from February. You will create a blogspot web site as your name. Once your site is created you can organized it however you want but you must have all the required elements. Make sure your photos are toned and corrected to 72 dpi for online viewing.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7414270409184541855-1310350127246880841?l=derbyphotoj.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Porterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02482418851016429381noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7414270409184541855.post-18540118432008414592010-02-20T09:18:00.001-08:002010-02-20T09:22:43.223-08:00<div>Many professional photographers no longer create print portfolios of their images. </div>Your final project for spring semester is to create a digital portfolio of your best photos from the year.<div><br /><div>You may include as many images and captions as you want, but you must have the following:</div><div>environmental portrait (either your yearbook assignment or your choice portrait)</div><div>holiday spirit</div><div>two sports photos</div><div>three student life photos</div><div>photo illustration</div><div>photo story package</div><div><br /></div><div>I encourage you to keep this portfolio and continue to update it if you continue an interest in photography.</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7414270409184541855-1854011843200841459?l=derbyphotoj.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Porterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02482418851016429381noreply@blogger.com0
