Project 2: Strangers in Spaces // Purpose- Gain experience building an informal rapport with people in order to study them as users. Capture "the nature" of a person and practice confronting people for inquiry. Take a portrait of the person and a panorama representing the environment you found them in. This is my portrait.

Project 3: Creating and Controlling Depth of Field // Purpose- Use depth of field as a controlled creative element in photographs to focus the viewer's eye. Using a small aperture illustrate "deep focus throughout", illustrate "localized focus" with a close proximity using a wide opening aperture setting, and a middle aperture setting for a "mid focus" shot. This is the deep focus shot.

Project 4: Capturing Motion // Learn how to adjust the shutter speed to create different effects in the photographs. Take a fast exposure that freezes action and background, take a panning shot that holds the subject crisp while blurring the background, and take a long exposure that communicates time and motion. This is my long exposure shot.

Project 5: Lighting Renditions // Using one product and one viewpoint, create distinctive renditions by only changing lighting and possibly backgrounds. Experiment with lighting directions, lighting amounts, lighting bounces and diffusions, and small light sources. This is my six shot composition.
