9/26

Warm-up:  Copy the information about camera angles.
Eye-Level - This is the most common view, being the real-world angle that we are all used to. It shows subjects as we would expect to see them in real life. It is a fairly neutral shot.
High Angle- A high angle shows the subject from above, i.e. the camera is angled down towards the subject. This has the effect of diminishing the subject, making them appear less powerful, less significant or even submissive.
Low Angle- This shows the subject from below, giving them the impression of being more powerful or dominant.

Classwork:  answer questions about photographs and begin photo essay draft - prompt:  What strategies does the photographer use to reveal his/her purpose?

Homework:  finish all 4 essay drafts (JFK, photo, cartoon, and ad) for Monday; work on independent reading
