This document discusses aperture and shutter speed in photography. It explains that aperture controls the size of the shutter opening and the amount of light entering the camera, which determines depth of field. Shutter speed controls how long the shutter stays open and is measured in fractions of a second, with faster speeds stopping action and slower speeds allowing more light. The document provides examples of photos taken with different aperture and shutter settings and instructs students to practice adjusting these settings to take photos demonstrating their understanding.
Shutter speed and aperture are tools that photographers can adjust to control the amount of light entering the camera and how motion is depicted. Shutter speed refers to how long the shutter is open and impacts whether motion is frozen, blurred, or has a sense of movement. Aperture, measured in f-stops, controls the size of the lens opening and determines depth of field. Photographers are challenged to create a series of photos telling a narrative story using different shutter speeds to show stopped, blurred, and panned action.
Emanuel Ologenau is an artist the student is researching to fuse with the theme of "FLIGHT" for their final piece. To fulfill Assessment Objective 1, the student needs to conduct research on Ologenau's photography, brainstorm ideas on the flight theme, create a mood board, experiment with print techniques like lino printing or working with clay or collage materials, and plan their final piece. The final piece can use lino printing with multiple colors, clay sculptures like small feathers, or a collage combining photos, prints, and found objects.

The document provides a history of photography, beginning with the camera obscura in the 18th century. It then discusses that the first photograph was taken by Joseph Nicéphore Niépce in 1826 using a camera obscura. The document also mentions the contributions of John Herschel, Henry Fox Talbot, George Eastman who invented the Kodak camera and rolled film, and Oskar Barnack who created the first 35mm camera.
The document provides guidance for students to complete a photography project by researching and studying the work of photographers. It instructs students to choose one of the listed photographers to research, collecting a biography and details on their style and techniques. Students are then asked to recreate some of the photographer's work by taking their own inspired photos or drawings and evaluating how their outcomes compare to the original artist. The goal is for students to gain inspiration from studying other photographers and applying it to their own creative work.
This document provides information about the GCSE Art and Design course, which consists of portfolio work and a final exam project. The portfolio, accounting for 60% of the grade, includes work from years 10 and 11. Students select their best pieces for assessment. The exam project in year 11 accounts for 40% of the grade. Students will complete several projects exploring different mediums to meet the four assessment objectives: researching artists and themes, experimenting with materials, developing and presenting ideas, and creating a final piece. Regular homework and use of a sketchbook are required to document process and progress. Success requires annotating work to explain creative choices.
The document provides success criteria for a summer task assignment to draw hands. An A*-B grade requires an observational drawing of hands with accurate proportions, detailed shading and care. A C-D grade needs hands drawn from an image with accurate proportions and some shading. An E-F grade is a simple hand drawing from a step-by-step guide lacking accuracy and detail.
The document outlines success criteria for drawing hands with different grade levels. An A*-B grade requires an observational drawing of hands with accurate proportions, high-level detail, control, and tonal shading. A C-D grade needs hands drawn from an image sheet with accurate proportions and some tonal shading and detail. An E-F grade is a simple hand drawing from a step-by-step guide that lacks accuracy, proportion, detail, and has untidy tonal shading.
Leading lines are compositional tools that draw a viewer's attention along lines and paths in a photo to a specific subject or vanishing point. Our eyes naturally follow lines, making us feel like we are standing in the photo. It is important to use leading lines effectively as they can be detrimental if used incorrectly, but they are very effective when used to guide the viewer's gaze to the intended subject as in a photo where a path leads the eye to two people standing on a hill.
Barriers and framing are important concepts when considering communication strategies. Effective barriers help contain messages to targeted audiences while framing influences how issues are understood by focusing attention on certain aspects. Together, barriers and framing are tools that can be used to shape public understanding and debate if applied carefully and ethically.
Antonio Gaudí was a Spanish architect from the late 19th and early 20th centuries known for his unique organic architectural designs. He began his career designing in a gothic style but developed his own sculptural style influenced by nature. Gaudí's most famous work was the unfinished La Sagrada Familia cathedral in Barcelona, which he devoted much of his life and career to designing. The cathedral was intended to have 18 towers and feature hyperboloid structures inspired by nature. Late in his life, Gaudí suffered personal losses and Barcelona faced economic difficulties, slowing progress on the cathedral. He died in 1926 after being struck by a tram in Barcelona.

This document provides instructions for creating tonal grids and patterns inspired by artist Chuck Close. It outlines the following steps:
1. Create a 9-square grid and fill it with tones of a single color, ranging from light to dark.
2. Draw Chuck Close-inspired patterns in light, medium, and dark tones using pencil, pastels, or paint to fill another 9-square grid.
3. Transfer a pre-drawn grid with light and dark shapes onto drawing paper and color it using the tonal patterns, applying dark patterns to dark areas and light patterns to light areas.
