Digital Photography

 

Digital Photography

6th Grade - Tuesday & Thursday

Teacher: Mr. Hank Caruso

The Digital Photography elective is designed to help students become better photographers. Students will learn the important things that make ordinary pictures extra-ordinary pictures. The students will use school supplied digital cameras and pre-loaded software on the school computers to upload and edit their pictures.
 
Students will learn the steps of "The Digital Workflow":
  • Capture
  • Transfer
  • Edit
  • Share
Students will use the following software to edit, manage and produce Digital Stories:
  • Gimp (Open Source Photo editing software)
  • Microsoft PowerPoint - Photo Album
  • Microsoft Photostory 3
 
Students will work on several projects to monitor their understanding and progress of the above topics. Most projects will be done at school during our scheduled class period. The students will be given one project to take photographs for a Digital Story.
