_______/_______(25 points) Objective o I have created a series of four or more photograms that are compositionally unified together by use of a visual pathway. o I have considered a thematic connection between my objects to help unify my series conceptually. o I have used only high-quality, well-printed exposures to create my final series. Comments: _______/_______(25 points) Design o Each of my photogram exposures demonstrate the following compositional considerations: o My objects touch and go off the edges of at least two or more sides of the format so they can be connected. o I have avoided “filling” the format, but instead carefully arranged my objects to create a balance of both positive and negative space. o My objects are a variety of sizes to establish contrast and interesting space. o I have overlapped my objects to create more interesting and unique shapes. o I have elegantly connected each of my exposures together to illustrate a visual pathway and unify my series. Comments: _______/_______(25 points) Darkroom Skills & Techniques o Each of my prints has a wide range of value, blackest blacks, whitest whites, and a wide range of middle grays. o My final prints demonstrate effective exposure techniques, each have a wide range of values, sharp details, and demonstrate creation and analysis of a test strip. o I have used additional darkroom equipment such as glass easels to more clearly expose my flat objects where necessary. o I have demonstrated effective use of all darkroom chemistry and processes when making each of my prints. o I have demonstrated at least one of the following experimental printing techniques in my final series: -Contact printing (inverting black and white values from a negative to a positive) -Multiple exposure (moving and exposing objects more than once on the same piece of photo paper) -Experimental overlapping (layering objects/imagery in unique or interesting ways) Comments: _______/_______(25 points) Presentation & Craftsmanship o Each of my prints demonstrates care and craftsmanship in its creation. I have avoided any unwanted marks, chemical stains, scratches, dust, or other distracting elements when making my final prints. o I have carefully trimmed each of my final prints to have clean, straight edges, and joined them by carefully taping their backs together. o Extra credit! (5 points) I have effectively matted each of my final prints by carefully adhering them onto contrasting black or white matte board. Comments:

Closing Questions (10 points) Directions: Respond to each of the questions using complete sentences and complete thoughts. 1) What would you title your photograms series? What visual relationship/theme are you trying to illustrate through your series?
2) Identify a principle of design, (emphasis, unity, contrast, repetition, pattern, movement, and balance) you used to somehow improve your series. Identify where and how in your series you used this principle of design:
3) What new techniques or processes did you learn by making photograms? Explain:

Directions: Select a work that best demonstrates each category, then explain why by using complete sentences and complete thoughts. ______ Most Interesting/Unique Series Select a series of photograms that you feel are the most elegantly combined to form an interesting connection/visual pathway.
______ Most Successful Darkroom Techniques Select a series that you feel demonstrates outstanding printing techniques in the darkroom. Identify what visually in the work you find to be especially amazing or successful.
______ Degree of Difficulty Select a series of photograms that demonstrates an especially challenging or difficult approach to solving this problem.
