Portrait

== =Portrait Photography = ===Artists like Cindy Sherman, Annie Lebowitz, Imogene Cunningham, Margaret Bourke-White, Diane Arbus, Harry Callahan, Richard Avedon and more have been inspiring people for years with their portraits of people. Everyday people, the artist in costume, famous people and models have all posed as subject and muse for these talented photographers. Use this list as a starting point and complete the following research. Try using flickr too, since a lot of people on there are doing some fantastic portrait work! All of the above images are from there! ===

=
Save 3 examples of outstanding photographic portraits and tell why you think they are good (use your art vocabulary, elements and principles to discuss), To save on the mac from the internet: Right click, save as, choose a folder on your directory or make a new one called Portrait and save into that folder. If images don't show up it means that the author of the image has it protected and it can't be copied. Try capturing it using Diigo and then upload it from your Diigo image library. This usually works. =====

=
Use Adobe Photoshop to combine your 3 images into one banner bar so you only have to upload one image instead of 3. Do this by going to File>New>set up the resolution as 72, make sure it's in RGB, set the size to 12 inches wide by 4 inches tall. Click ok. Then open your images that you've saved from the internet and pull them onto this document and save as a jpg. You can call it portrait banner. This will make it really easy to upload one image that contains the 3. If you keep the background white they will look like they're floating on the page. =====

=
Explain what type of compositional technique (leading lines, rule of thirds, framing, fill the frame, level horizon, focal point and point of view) the artist used to create their portraits. =====

=
Tell who the artist is that shot the photo and the title of the image if available. If you use flickr.com images you may not get the actual name of the person so use their user name. =====
