HEALTH AND SAFETY

We use camera straps and double check that the camera is securely in the tripod. When we're not using it we have the lens cap on and put it in it's bag. We stay in places close to the college and busy buildings so if anything were to happen we could easily reach someone, We usually use riversley park for these reasons. We also keep our phones on so we're always able to reach the college in a emergency. 

Before each session in the studio, we would have a technician come in to show us how to safely use the equipment. We would turn the lights off when we werent using them so they wouldnt heat up too much and burn anyone. we would also sit when he lights were off to ensure nobody would fall. 

BUTTERFLY EFFECT

The Butterfly effect is a achieved simply by putting a soft light love the subject in a way that compliments their cheekbones, creating a butterfly wing effect.

EXPLANATION OF ISO/SHUTTERSPEED/APERTURE

ISO is the sensitivity of your camera to light. The lower the ISO, the less sensitive it is. The Image sensor in the camera is the most valuable and important part, it gathers light and transforms it into an image. With increased sensitivity, your camera sensor can capture images in low-light environments without having to use a flash. But higher sensitivity adds grain or “noise” to the pictures.




"A camera shutter is a curtain in front of the camera sensor that stays closed until the camera fires. When the camera fires, the shutter opens and fully exposes the camera sensor to the light that passes through the lens aperture. After the sensor is done collecting the light, the shutter closes immediately, stopping the light from hitting the sensor. The button that fires the camera is also called “shutter” or “shutter button”, because it triggers the shutter to open and close. Shutter speed, also known as “exposure time”, stands for the length of time a camera shutter is open to expose light into the camera sensor. If the shutter speed is fast, it can help to freeze action completely, as seen in the above photo of the dolphin. If the shutter speed is slow, it can create an effect called “motion blur”." [1]


5/1

"The iris of the lens that controls the size (diameter) of the aperture is called “diaphragm” in optics. The sole purpose of the diaphragm is to block or stop all light, with the exception of the light that goes through the aperture. In photography, aperture is expressed in f-numbers (for example f/5.6). These f-numbers that are known as “f-stops” are a way of describing the size of the aperture, or how open or closed the aperture is."
