Sienna's Insights
Art & Technology
This week I was fortunate enough to get to talk to the Year 10 Photography class! They are currently working on their Photographer Essays, and I had the chance to talk to their teacher, and some of the students to get an insight into the subject!
Year 10 Photography teaches students how to use a digital camera, how to adjust the aperture, ISO and shutter speed, and how to take certain types of photos, like a jumping photograph, or a photograph of a bubble.
Of course I got to have a chat to a few of the students:
How do you find this subject so far?
Charlotte: It’s really interesting and I love hanging out with my friends.
Lucy: I find it really fun and I get excited to go to that class everyday.
Katie: Its good, I enjoy taking photos and I feel that my prior knowledge in this subject helps me to improve my photos heaps.
What inspires you within this subject?
Charlotte: My friends inspire me.
Lucy: Seeing the photos other people take inspires me to take my own.
Katie: Taking photos of my friends.
Does this subject encourage you or other students to create outside of school?
Charlotte: Yes, it does.
Lucy: It doe. It makes me feel encouraged to take more photos outside of the world.
Katie: Yes, I have my own camera, so the skills I learn in class help me with my personal photography as well.
I am super excited to see what this wonderful photography class can continue to create within this subject! Fantastic work Year 10s!
