Today is the Mr. Belanger's famous photo scavenger hunt activity. First, a bit about photography!
* Cameras take pictures of light. All objects reflect light differently, this is why we see color. This is important to think about, so you don't shoot directly into the sun, for example.
* Flash is good--especially when you are taking pictures of people; when it is overcast, or you are in the shade.
* Handle equipment with care--you've done a great job with this so far!
The task:
You will be working in teams of 2-4 people to create funny photos that you can then use in PhotoStory, tomorrow. The key to the hunt is creativity, and the result is new friends, new memories and some really great pictures.
- Scene from a Disney movie (explaining it afterwards is half the fun!)
- Catalog pose or pretend to be a model
- Do exactly what the sign says (any sign can work)
- Most creative use of ‘leap-frog'
- "I can't believe we all fit in here!"
- Picture with an animal (the more unusual the better)
- Take your picture with someone in uniform
- Create a public work of art
- Capture your reflection in an unexpected place
- Spell something using people letters – family name, hello, SOS . . . teamwork here...
- Mimic a statue -- fountains also work well
- At least one geometric shape that is found in an unusual place
- An unsual perspective -- could be everyone's shoes, or the just top of their heads. .
- Make yourselves appear really small
- Can you find us?
Where: We will work in the circle-drive area by the theatre. Lets try our best to work here; and not spread out too far.
Rules: The only rule is that EVERYONE (except the person behind the camera) has to be in each picture, somewhere. Rotate photographers so everyone can participate. Have Fun!
When we come back in, we will work to download photos.
UPDATE: This is a really cool site, The New York Times, that did a reader photo hunt... sort of neat! http://travel.nytimes.com/2007/03/04/travel/04weekend.1.html
