As part of our
Community Arts Project we had the opportunity to learn more about phototgraphy from Middle MMY. They came to our classroom and taught us what they know about photography. After listening to the children we discovered that there are three different views that we can use to take a photograph and make a photograph look more interesting.
1. Worm's Eye View (this view makes something look bigger)
2. Bird's Eye View (this view makes something look smaller)
3. Middle View (we use this view the most)
We also learnt that you use a
zoom to bring things closer or move them away. An important piece of information that we now know is that we have to
take our time and be very still when we take photographs otherwise they will be blurry. We have to turn ourselves in to a
bipod and have
chicken wings to capture the best image that we can.
After listening to our mentors we then went outside and had a go at taking photographs using the three different views.
We had a great time learning with the Middles and now we are going to teach our parents how to take fabulous photos!
