Photography

For this project you will:

  1. Take at least 4 rolls black and white film with a speed of 400 (at least 24 exposures)
  2. Develop a these rolls of film
  3. Make 4 contact sheets
  4. Make 30 prints from your assigments.
  5. The pictures will be developed with perfect black and white.

You will need:

  1. 4 roll black and white tri-x film with a speed of 400
  2. To buy your own photo paper or You may also buy a pack and share with other students. I don't care what you do as long as you have enough.
  3. A binder for your photos.

Useful Facts to remember:

In order for an image to be captured on film, it must be exposed to light. In photography, it is important to be able to measure light. Too much light can ruin a photograph, and so can too little. Light can be measured and controlled by it's brightness- (F-Stops) and by it's duration-(Shutter Speed).


Film reacts to light. The more light you give to it, the brighter the image will be. You can buy all types of film for your camera, and they will all have a FILM SPEED. "Fast" films are more sensitive to light than "slow" films.


Cameras come in all shapes and sizes. Three things all cameras have in common are a lens, an aperture, and a shutter. By adjusting the aperture-( F-Stop ) and shutter settings, you change the way light and film interact.
