JR#1: Portraits of LFAS Friends
You will take a series of portraits of one person using the specific portrait “formula” that the class created. To individualize your portrait, explore a variety of expressions, positioning, and maybe some props.

• Print a contact sheet and one 8 x 10 image.
• Scan your best negative, save to share file.
• Paste one photo in your PhotoDiary.
• Answer the following questions in your PhotoDiary: Describe the person in the photo: Who are they? What is their mood? Is their “Art” obvious? If so, what is their art? If not, explain why not? How does this represent LFAS?

JR#2: Portraits of an LFAS Elementary Student
Same as above, just photograph someone different this time.

LFAS- Inside Out Project

• The models can either hold something that relates to their art, or not.
• Models should wear a similar outfit (simple white t-shirt).
• Models should be expressive with body language.
• The portrait expressions should be expressive of their art, enthusiastic, fun, and candid.
• The models should be framed from the waist up.
• The portraits will be cut out when presented on the wall, but make sure the background is simple when you photograph them.
• The lighting should be even, from the front, minimal shadows.
