Welcome to Say Cheese… During this lessons we will be exploring… Before we start let’s recap on our last lesson… • Cameras and History Image: http://www.freepik.com/free-vector/old-film-negatives-vector-material-5_514767.htm http://www.sodahead.com/fun/pet-mice-cute-or-ick/question-1763939/?page=4&link=ibaf&q=mice+standing+up&imgurl=http://www.petsworld.co.uk/images/rat.jpg
can be used to project an image of the outside environment • can be directed on to a new path using mirrors and reflection In our last lesson we learnt that “light…” • travels in a straight line • is needed for a camera obscura to work. Many artists use this to help create realistic drawings and paintings. • can help keep us warm, help grow plants and provide power through solar panels
Let’s start this lesson by exploring “Cameras and History”. Image: http://hayleylewis.wordpress.com/2011/04/17/camera-obscura/
1889 Eastman Kodak 1820 Camera Obscura Cameras have been around for more than 150 years. Over time cameras have changed in size, shape, material and colour. 1933 Exakta 2009 Panasonic Lumix GH1 1981 Mavica Image: http://www.talktalk.co.uk/technology/galleries/view/technology/historyofthecamera/browse/
2009 1936 As cameras developed and changed so did photographs. The first photographs taken were in black and white, later to become full colour photographs. Cameras also became easier to use and much more affordable. This meant more people were using cameras, from professional photographers to young children.

But what makes the “camera” so special? And how has technology such as a “camera” help History?

Great South Road, Manurewa 1950s A camera can help us to see how people use to live and dress and how places have changed overtime. Can you imagine students from this school 50 years from now looking at photographs of what the school use to look like? A “camera” is special because it can capture people and places from long ago. Sometimes when we think of the past, we might imagine our parents or grandparents going to school when they were children. We might ask questions like… What did they wear? Did they wear school uniform? How did they go to school? What kind of cars and buses did they travel in? What kind of town did they live in? Was it as big as the town we live in now? What did their school look like? Was it as big as our school? Images: http://manukau.infospecs.co.nz/footprints/home.htm
Let’s take a look at some photographs of places in New Zealand and how they have changed over time. 77 years later… Auckland Central Train Station 1930s Auckland Central Train Station (Britomart) 2007 Image: http://www.steelguard.co.nz/portfolio/view/auckland-railway-station/ http://international.pbrs.co.nz/student-services/living-costs

As we have seen, cameras can help us reflect past histories through photographs… Let’s recap on what we have learnt so far…
have we What Learnt? Cameras… • have been around for more than 150 years and were first developed from a camera obscura. • were first used by scientists, artists and professional photographers. But are now used by almost anyone as cameras today are much easier to use. • allow us to discover or remember what • places use to look like and how people • lived or dressed.
In the next lesson we will explore “Spaces for Art”. End of lesson
