Why is great photography

 •
 •
        important for yearbooks?
      Tells a story on its own
      Supports the written word
 •    Provides visual coverage
 •    Sparks memories faster

                Great
         photography
              makes a
       yearbook…and
     bad photography
         will break it.
The ABCs of Coverage
>>          using Candids
     Individual portraits and group photos aside, candid photos are
     the essence of the yearbook.
     They capture emotion, expression and actions. But most
     importantly, they capture the moment.
     Great candid photos don’t happen accidentally. Think of
     yourself as storytellers, but without words.
     Use your ABC’s—start at the beginning:
         –Arrive early. (Stay late.)
         –Be prepared. (Shoot fast.)
         –Closer is better. (Get even closer.)

     To ensure proper coverage, make a shot list beforehand.
        Use ABC’s to ensure unique aspects are on the list.

>>        EXTREME Composition
     Photographers take time to balance composition (the
     arrangement of elements in a photograph) and technical quality.
     Sometimes, we trade one for the other but should always have a
     reason.
     Composition is most important to me. Shoot first, fiddle later.
         –   Vary your angles
         –   Light your subject
         –   Look for emotion
         –   See repetition
         –   Frame your subject
         –   Capture the action
         –   Vary your focus
>>   1. varytheangle
     The photographer must…

      • Have a vision for each shot


      • Get “down and dirty!”


      • Not be afraid to get right onto the action


      • Take each picture from multiple
      angles
         •Use Rule of Thirds

               >>The girl in the shot sketches
               the ceiling of the front atrium of
               the high school for an art class
               project. The photographer
               actually had the girl lie on the
               ground to capture the shot.

               The photographer
               must envision each
               shot from different
               angles to create
               impact.
>>
               >>Members of the yearbook staff
               throw yearbook surveys up into
               the air in giddy disgust of putting
               together connections to reflect
               the theme.




               Sometimes you
               have to get
varytheangle



               “down and dirty.”
                The shooter had
               to move and
               stand on a table
               to create
               elevation to get
               this angle on the
               shot.
>>
               >>Incredibly, the photographer,
               Shauna Miller, took this picture
               of herself by setting the camera
               on the ground with a delay to
               capture her own cartwheel.



               Again, the
               photographer has to
               envision each shot with
               a direct intent in mind.
               Also, sometimes, you
               have to take many
               pictures to get the great

               one.

               How many takes
               do you think it
               took Shauna to
               get this shot?

                   Sometimes it
                   takes
                   patience.

     Many times, the lighting of your shot will
     determine its success or failure.

       • It’s much better to underexpose your shots
       than to overexpose them.
           •Less lighting is much better than too much
           lighting.

       • Don’t count on your flash to provide enough
       light, especially in sports photography.
       • Don’t underestimate the sun.

       • Get as close to your subject as possible.

       • Embrace low-lighting opportunities.

                           • Set your camera to take many
                           quick shots in a row.
                           • Shoot more coverage shots –

>>   3. getemotional
     The good photographer looks for
     opportunities to capture emotion.

       • A great emotional shot can almost tell the
       whole story of the situation without a caption.


       • Much of the time, it takes many shots to capture
       the great emotional shot. Hence, make sure you
       take lots of pictures at each event and patiently
       wait for the “money shot.”

       • At sporting events, many times the emotion
       happens on the sidelines, in the stands, or just
       after the race or game.

>>   5. FRAMEofmind
      Taking great framed shots requires the
      “know how” and many skills.

        • When possible, you should always look for
        situations where you can naturally have your
        subject framed.


        • Framing draws attention to the subject of
        your picture.


        • This really represents yet another opportunity
        to impress the judges who will adjudicate your
        book.

       • The first basic rule to getting a great action shot
       requires that you MOVE and MOVE MORE!

       • Familiarize yourself where most of the action will
       take place for each sport and set up accordingly.

       • Use a monopod whenever possible. You can also
       use a tripod, but this tends to limit your capabilities
       in fast action sports.

       • Don’t rely on flashes and vary the lenses.

       • For sports with game balls, anticipate the shot.
>>
              Set yourself up
              for where the
              action happens.


              Prioritize sports
              that have few
              home meets or
              games.

             >>With only two home
             track meets, two
             yearbook photographers
             attended both meets
             and took hundreds of
             shots. One of them
             caught this shot of a
             triple jumper.

                              this diver surfaced, he
             moment.          shook his head. The
                              photographer took over
                              a dozen shots and this
                              one came out the best.
>>
              Use a monopod
              when you can.



              Find where most
              of the action
              happens. To do
              this, you must
              MOVE!

             >>The photographer
             utilized a 75mm-300mm
             lens to take this shot.
             She stood from the far
             sideline with a monopod
             and captured this
             picture.

     Do your best to show depth in your
     shots.
       • Learn how to focus correctly to show
       your intent for each shot.

       • Depth shots can really spice up your
       academic section.


       • Look for opportunities to show
       depth. This requires that you think
       about your shots.

  • 1. >>
  • 2. Why is great photography >> • • important for yearbooks? Tells a story on its own Supports the written word • Provides visual coverage • Sparks memories faster Great photography makes a yearbook…and bad photography will break it.
  • 3. The ABCs of Coverage >> using Candids Individual portraits and group photos aside, candid photos are the essence of the yearbook. They capture emotion, expression and actions. But most importantly, they capture the moment. Great candid photos don’t happen accidentally. Think of yourself as storytellers, but without words. Use your ABC’s—start at the beginning: –Arrive early. (Stay late.) –Be prepared. (Shoot fast.) –Closer is better. (Get even closer.) To ensure proper coverage, make a shot list beforehand. Use ABC’s to ensure unique aspects are on the list.
  • 4. >> • • Tips and tricks of the trade Shoot at Highest Resolution Check the Quality Periodically • Darker is Better than Too Bright • Use Modes When in Doubt • Never Turn on Digital Zoom • Protect your Ports • Take Backup Batteries • Have Extra Memory Cards • Keep Originals as Masters
  • 5. Rock Your Camera with >> EXTREME Composition Photographers take time to balance composition (the arrangement of elements in a photograph) and technical quality. Sometimes, we trade one for the other but should always have a reason. Composition is most important to me. Shoot first, fiddle later. – Vary your angles – Light your subject – Look for emotion – See repetition – Frame your subject – Capture the action – Vary your focus
  • 6. >> 1. varytheangle The photographer must… • Have a vision for each shot • Get “down and dirty!” • Not be afraid to get right onto the action • Take each picture from multiple angles •Use Rule of Thirds
  • 7. >> >>The girl in the shot sketches the ceiling of the front atrium of the high school for an art class project. The photographer actually had the girl lie on the ground to capture the shot. varytheangle The photographer must envision each shot from different angles to create impact.
  • 8. >> >>Members of the yearbook staff throw yearbook surveys up into the air in giddy disgust of putting together connections to reflect the theme. Sometimes you have to get varytheangle “down and dirty.” The shooter had to move and stand on a table to create elevation to get this angle on the shot.
  • 9. >> >>Incredibly, the photographer, Shauna Miller, took this picture of herself by setting the camera on the ground with a delay to capture her own cartwheel. Again, the photographer has to envision each shot with a direct intent in mind. Also, sometimes, you have to take many pictures to get the great varytheangle one. How many takes do you think it took Shauna to get this shot? 4 Sometimes it takes patience.
  • 10. >> Leading lines play a part.
  • 11. Use rule of thirds. >>
  • 12. >>
  • 13. >> 2. makelightofit Many times, the lighting of your shot will determine its success or failure. • It’s much better to underexpose your shots than to overexpose them. •Less lighting is much better than too much lighting. • Don’t count on your flash to provide enough light, especially in sports photography. • Don’t underestimate the sun. • Get as close to your subject as possible. • Embrace low-lighting opportunities.
  • 14. Photoshop >> allows you lighten and darken pictures. Still, look what happened here. Over- exposed The best it gets makelightofit Under- Moral of exposed the Story… Less light is better than too much light. Not too bad
  • 15.
