SHUTTER SPEED APP (For next class)

SHUTTER SPEED APP FOR YOUR PHONE CAMERA.

If your phone camera is your main device, you will need a 'shutter speed app' for your phone camera. 

If you have an Android phone, you may already have shutter speed control, but make sure to check.

The shutter speed numbers often look like fractions, or simply list a range of denominators.

MOST IMPORTANT FEATURE TO LOOK FOR IN THE APP YOU GET: 

You need an app that will give you a range of slow shutter speeds (1/8", 1/4", 1/2", 1", 10", 30", 60", Bulb)

In the app, the shutter speed might not look like a fraction. It may just be a listing of the denominator of the shutter speed fractions. (ex: 250, 125, 60, 30, 15, 8, 4...).

For iPhone, if you can, get Slow Shutter Cam (Click here)

Other iPhone apps that are available, and would be useful for our purposes:

CAMERA+2 (Click here)

645 PRO Mk III (Click here)

*These two are more expensive, but give you a lot of control that other apps do not. 

There are free apps, but most allow a limited number of photographs before having to purchase, and/or do not include the full range of shutter speed.

DIRECTIONS FOR DEVELOPING YOUR PHOTOGRAPHS:

For each photo...
1. Take photo to BLACK & WHITE.
2. Adjust the BRIGHTNESS + CONTRAST to enhance (deepen and brighten) the values in the photograph.
3. "SAVE AS" the image, and add "BW" to the end of the file name so you do not save over the original. 
4.  Post all images.

NOW...
1. Choose five of your photos that have the HIGHEST CONTRAST.
2. For each photo, OPEN the photo.
3. Create a DUPLICATE LAYER of the background image (Layers palette).
4. Change BLENDING MODE to "EXCLUSION"
5. Open CURVES and adjust the histogram line to a "W" or an "M" to produce a SOLARIZED/SABATTIER image with MACKIE LINES.

You need to post...
5+ photos processed into Sabattier.
Post the original next to the processed image.
(That is 10+ photos total that are posted)
