  1. Here’s your shot Academics

  2. Here are your tips: • Shoot activities with involved students. • Find a unique angle. • Wait for the moment. • Shoot no less than 100 shots. • Have teachers alert the staff when special presentations or activities are used. • Avoid shooting toward windows. Outside light is too bright and will cause silhouettes. • Look for one-person, two-people, small group, large group moments.

  3. Photocomposition • Unique angle • Fill the frame • The photographer uses the fetal pig in the foreground for a point of reference. • By squatting below the subjects, he avoids the cluttered background and captures the girls’ faces as well. • Avoid angles where you’ll be forced to shoot the top of someone’s head.

  4. Photocomposition • Unique angle • Fill the frame • Rule of thirds • The lower angle gives the appropriate background. • Turning the flash off and adjusting the aperture is key to setting the mood of the overhead light.

  5. Photocomposition • Unique angle • Fill the frame • Framing • The lower angle gives the appropriate background. • The laptop gives us a point of reference for the content of the class.

  6. Photocomposition • Rule of thirds • Fill the frame • Small group • When shooting teachers, try to catch their interaction with students. • The game board is an important aspect of the story- telling quality of this photograph.

  7. Photocomposition • Repetition of pattern • Fill the frame • Rule of thirds • The repetition of the students diagonally adds interest. • The shallow depth of field softens the background.

  8. Photocomposition • Unique angle • Aperture control • Rule of thirds • The photographer gets on the level of the little ones and captures their point of view. • Controlling the aperture and blurring the background creates visual interest.

  9. Photocomposition • Unique angle • Fill the frame • Aperture control • A shallow depth of field frames the soft focus subject for an artistic touch. • This type of photo works well for sidebars.

  10. Photocomposition • Unique angle • Fill the frame • Rule of thirds • The photographer shot this angle more than 30 times waiting for the students to get back to work. She stood over the computer and shot. • The lesson here is patience.

  11. Photocomposition • Unique angle • Fill the frame • Leading lines • Bird’s eye view provides a unique perspective. • The paintbrush and student’s arm act as a leading line.

  12. Photocomposition • Unique angle • Fill the frame • Framing • Leading lines • The stylus and the subject’s eyes create strong leading lines. • Even though the subject’s face is not fully visible, the shoulder and neck frame the pottery.

  13. Photocomposition • Unique angle • Fill the frame • Leading lines • The worm’s eye view allows the viewer to see the faces at the board rather than the backs of their heads. • Note: Don’t attempt this if any of the subjects are wearing skirts.
