PORTRAIT ASSIGNMENT
We've looked at several different approaches to portraiture. Your assignment is to define what you feel makes a successful and interesting portrait.
Produce six images, all portraits.
One must be a portrait of some one without including them in the image, and one must have some kind of artificial/altered light.
Bring your photographs to class on Friday, October 14th. We'll be working on them during lab.

SCANNING ASSIGNMENT
Scanning Assignment
There are several different pieces of software used for scanning images. Some are made for a specific scanner, some are third party applications. Even with the differences, the steps for scanning anything are the same...
1. Place your object/image on the scanning bed.
2. Preview your scan.
3. Determine the resolution of the scan.
4. Choose the area of the scanning bed to scan.
5. Modify any additional settings such as the descreen filter.
6. Scan.
Here are some tips for how to scan different types of documents, photographs, objects, etc. We'll cover film scanning later...
Photographs - Always scan as full color (even if the original image is black and white). This will add resolution. You should not apply any filters or special adjustments when scanning a photograph.
Three dimensional objects - Scan the same as a photograph.
Images from print media (postcards, magazines, newspapers) - use the descreen filter. This will abate the presence a moiré pattern in the final file. Most scanning software contains a descreen filter with settings for magazine, newspaper, fine art print, etc.
Please being the following to class on Friday, October 14th.
-A translucent object, no larger than 8x10 inches. A piece of photographic negative film, or positive (slide) film will work also.
-A three dimensional object no larger than 8x10. Please nothing made out of sandpaper or other abrasive material. Please nothing wet and disgusting, like a sandwich.
-An old photograph that needs to be altered or repaired in some way. It must be optically printed and not from a magazine, etc.
-An image from a book, magazine, newspaper, postcard or other print media that you find particularly interesting.
You will be turning in three images total. All images are to be scanned at 600dpi or higher.
You'll be turning in...
1. One photograph scanned and free from dust and scratches (use the clone stamp and healing brush tools).
2. One image from some type of print media that requires the use of the descreening filter.
3. One three dimensional object.
ALL FILES ARE DUE BEFORE THE END OF THE SEMESTER! PLACE THEM IN A FOLDER LABELED LIKE THIS: "scanning_last name_first name. PUT THE FOLDER IN MY FOLDER IN THE DROP BOX.
