    The document provides an assignment to photograph 40 digital frames focusing on the 8 principles of composition. Students must take at least 5 photos for each principle in black and white, capturing people, objects, or abstractions. They should consider visual interest and balance for each photo. A chart is included to help students track their photos for each principle: rule of thirds, leading lines, fill the frame, edges of the frame, frame within a frame, light and shadow, pattern/texture, and point of view. Descriptions of each principle are also provided.

    Ordinary to Extraordinary Assignment – Photo I

    You must photograph 40 digital frames that focus on each of the 8 principles of composition (that’s 5 pictures of each!). Think
    about how to make your compositions visually interesting and balanced using only black and white. You can photograph people,
    objects, or even just abstractions of space. You may take multiple compositions of the same subject matter but should have at
    least 2 different ideas for subject matter for EACH principle. Think outside the box and always consider – Am I interested in this
    photo? Am I creating a picture in which others would be interested?

    Here’s a handy chart to help you keep track of your photos – draw a thumbnail or write a description
    in each box so you know when you have completed your exploration ofcompositional space:

    1. Rule of Thirds

    2. Leading Lines

    3. Fill the Frame

    4. Edges of the Frame

    5. Frame within a Frame

    6. Light and Shadow

    7. Pattern/Texture

    8. Point of View
    1. Rule of Thirds – imagine a tic-tac-toe board – your subject is placed
    in one of the 4 intersections. Avoids dead center placement.

    2. Leading Lines – real or implied lines that lead your eye through the
    photo – often involves linear perspective.

    3. Fill the Frame – one subject fills the entire frame, zoom in on a
    subject until there is little to no negative space.

    4. Edges of the Frame – Using an edge/multiple edges to purposefully


    crop part of your image.

    5. Frame within a Frame – Placing your subject within an actual or


    manmade frame.

    6. Light and Shadow – Creating high contrast photos using dynamic


    strong light sources.
    The hour before sunset and after sunrise provides elongated shadows.

    7. Pattern/Texture – repeated elements/implied surface textures.

    8. Point of View – the angle and position of the camera in relation to


    the subject.

    Ex. Low/Worm’s eye/High/Bird’s eye/Aerial/Dutch Angle
