Week 4 Assignment Due week 5

All work needs to be caught up

Camera settings and enlarger/timer settings should be recorded and stored with your contacts and prints.
This is what you will refer to when printing on your own.

Test Strips are Essential for figuring out the right exposure times! If you use them, you will make better prints.

As a group we need to come up with a theme, Joao suggested "Challenge"
I think we need to define or clairfy that or at least come up with a phrase for a group show.
This is what I want you guys to be thinking and applying to your photographs, so we can curate our work.

Bring to class:

• printing paper
• processed negatives (all 4 rolls)- the new roll maybe of whatever you choose keep in mind the theme
• printed contacts (all 4 contacts)
• test strips 
• 7 new prints (with f stop, time, and filter noted on back)

Prints that were due this week will be referenced during crit next week and  while discussing technical issues. BRING THEM!!!
2 of them should be reprinted (unless we discussed otherwise) using filters to control the contrast and enhance the print quality.
In addition 5 more prints need to be made. These can be any images from any of the 4 assigned rolls, as long as you have not already printed them. I strongly recommend looking at your negatives for density (how much information is on them) and select easy negatives to print. I will send out emails with numbers from your contact sheets of images the class thought were interesting for potential enlargements. You will need to make test strips, and mark your print notes on the backs of each print so we can talk about how to improve our work. You have to use filters for these, even if it is only a #2.
