When Photography was invented, many artists felt it would be the “death of painting”.
•
Silver is the light sensitive metal used in film and paper.
•
George Eastman invented roll film and the pointandshoot “Box” camera.
•
PhotoFlo prevents water spots from forming on film.
•
Stop bath=Acetic acid. It neutralizes the developer.
6. Camera obscura= 1st camera. It predated film and was used by artist like Davinci. 7. David Hockney=Photo Collage 8. Ansel Adams was a famous photographer who worked primarily in Yosemite National park. 9. B=Bulb on the shutter speed dial. Used for very long (“Timed”) exposures. 10. Opaque=can not be penetrated by light.
11. Tin Types were cheap alternatives to Daguerreotypes. 12. Matthew Brady (credited for shooting many Civil War pictures) could be considered the first Photojournalist. 13. Edward Weston: Pepper #30. 14. Joseph Niecephore Niepce=1st ever photograph ca. 1826. 15. Ratio=Fraction 5:35=1:7
16. Lewis Hine: Child Labor 17. James Van Der Zee: Harlem Renaissance 18. Elements of art: Recognize/ Identify… Line, Shape, Value, Texture, Form, Space, Color. 19. Ratio of 1:2= 1 part chemical, 2 parts water. A ratio of 1:1=one part of each. 20. Film is developed in a light tight Tank.
21. The subject (most important part) of a photograph is also called the focal point. 22.The Easel holds paper flat while printing. 23. The one essential ingredient to all photography is light. 24. A test strip is done in intervals of 3 seconds to determine exposure time. 25. Burning= adding exposure. Dodging=removing exposure.
26. A contact sheet/ contact print is a print that is the same size as the negative. 27. Man Ray was an experimental photographer in the early 20th century that made many solarized prints and “Rayograms”. 28. Fast film (400 ISO) is highly sensitive to light and has large grain…Slow film (100 ISO) is less sensitive to light and has smaller grain.
29. 3 types of lenses are: telephoto (75mm or longer) wide angle (35mm or wider), macro (used for close ups) 30. Aperture controls depth of field, Shutter speed controls motion. 31. Montage/ Collage= more than 1 print to make an image. 32. Your shutter speed controls the duration (length of time) of the exposure, your aperture is the size of the lens opening 33. Fogging is unintentional exposure of film or paper.
34. Value is the range of tones (black, white and grey) in a print. 35. Henri CartierBresson is known for capturing the decisive moment. 36. Fast shutter speed stop motion… slow shutter speed blur motion. 37. Great depth of field (everything in focus)= F22, F16, F11. 38. Photographic Paper has 2 qualities: surface (glossy or matte) and weight (thickness)
39. Developer temperature for film should be between 68 and 72 degrees. 40. Principles of art: pattern, rhythm, balance, etc. 41. Enlarger= camera in reverse… used to make prints in the darkroom. 42. Developer, stop bath, fixer, water rinse, Perma wash, final wash… Know the order! 43. The focal plane is a 2D surface where your picture is focused (hopefully your film)
44. The light sensitive part of your film or paper is called the emulsion. 45. There are 2 kinds of balance: symmetrical (same) and asymmetrical (not the same) 46. Backlighting creates a silhouette. 47. Contrast filter numbers go from #00 to #5. The higher the numbers the greater the contrast. 48. SLR= single lens reflex 49. A normal lens for a 35mm camera is 50mm.
50. If you shoot with a shutter speed slower than 1/60th of a second, you should use a tripod to avoid blurring. 51. Fstops in order: F32, F22, F16, F11, F8, F5.6, F4, F2.8, F2. 52. Shutter speed in order: 4, 8, 15, 60, 125, 250, 500, 1000. 53. 5 parts of a camera: camera body, aperture, shutter speed, film, viewfinder. 54. After your film is developed, it is referred to as a negative.
