PRINT 1 Pictures

These are my Print 1 Pictures starting with my test strips and ending with my final big picture. 

1. First you have to take the pictures using the camera provided. 

2. Next you take the film out in the developing bag and then you put the roll of film through the chemicals.

3. Once you leave the film to dry, you pick five pictures and you make a test strip with the five pictures on the film. You do two seconds using the cardboard and your filter is on F8. Put through chemicals when done. 

4. Then you pick the picture that is the most clear and has black white and grey and you make another test strip using 2 seconds with the cardboard and using the filter F8. Put through chemicals. You then analyze how many seconds shows the black white and grey and you do it for that many seconds on the big piece of paper. 

5. Once you put it through the chemicals, your picture should have black white and grey, it should be clear, all edges should be even, and there shouldn't be any agitation marks on it. You then make once more big picture so you have two. 

6. Finally, post your hard work on blogger staring with your test strips all the way to the finished product. 

Camera Know How Worksheet

Camera Know How

1. I used camera #16.

2. There is no on button.

3. You press the shutter release to take a picture.

4. The film speed dial changes the shutter speed.

5. 1, 2, 4, 8, 15, 30, 60, 125, 250, 500, 1000, 2000

6. The aperture ring.

8. You focus the camera using the focusing ring.

9. Yes the camera does have a zoom lens

10. When you go to push the button to take the picture, you push it half way down and if the green light appears, the camera has enough light.

11. You use the lens to adjust the light.

12. You bracket by finding the f-stop that you are using with the green light, and then adjust the f-stop to one above the normal f-stop and one below.

13.The film I'm using is called Kentmere 400 Black and White Film.

14. The iso setting the the sensitivity of the sensor to light.

15.  You turn the rewinding wheel clockwise.

Photogram Worksheet

Kerrianne Fagan


1. You use an object that doesn't let any light get through it to create white on your photogram.

2. To achieve black, you don't put any object and you let the photogram hit direct light.

3. To achieve gray. you use an object that lets little light go pass through it.

4. Because you can't see what you are designing in the dark room.

5. To test how much light is needed to make the image visible.

6. Because you are making a design using light.

7. Adam Fuss, Ethan Jantzer, and Laszlo Moholy-Nagy.

8. The developer develops the picture.

9. The stopper stops the picture from developing.

10. The fix prevents anymore light from affecting the picture.

11. The fixer remover, removers the fixer.

12. The three-minute wash gets all the chemicals off of the photogram.

Positive Pinhole Pictures

These are my positive pinhole camera pictures.

Pinhole Camera Project

1. A darkened box with a convex lens or aperture for projecting the image of an external object onto a screen inside.
2. A pinhole camera is a can that isn't supposed to let any light in unless the aperture is exposed to light, creating an image.
3. They all have a shutter, aperture, and light tight.
4. The shutter and the aperture allow light to get in.
5. You put a piece of special paper in the pinhole camera and you bring it outside for ten seconds. Then when you go through the chemicals, if the paper is all white, no light got in, which is good. If it is mostly or all black, light got in which isn't good. To fix that, you can put tinfoil on the top of the camera.
6. Camera shake is when you are moving the camera, causing the image to be blurry. To prevent it, you can put it on something that is flat and stays still.
7. The developer bring the invisible image up.
8. The stop bath stops the image from coming up.
9. The fixer makes it so the light doesn't affect the picture.
10. You agitate the chemicals so the chemicals get all over the paper to bring the picture up and keep it smooth.
11. You prevent strips from sticking together by laying them in a tray by themselves, that way it doesn't touch anyone else's.
12. We wash prints to get all the chemicals off of the strip.

Rules of Composition

We did this project to advance our picture taking skills and to learn how to use a camera properly. This will help us take a picture properly. The project taught us how to take different pictures and how to identify different types of pictures.
