Výsledky učení dané vzdělávací složky:

The aim of this subject is to introduce the students with the physical rudiments of photography together with the applied exhibitions of specific tasks. The students will also learn how to use technical equipment of the Department of Photography, including the ways how to compare images processed by the analogue and digital technologies.

Forma studia:

On the practical examples students are taught how to realize assignments taking pictures of different surfaces with respect to the appropriate sharpness and lighting conditions with possibilities of Scheimpflug principle. Students also learn how to take pictures of geometric objects in the space with focus on differences in lighting ratios of main and additional light source, light measuring of the scene and taking care of the ranges of objects.

Obsah kurzu:

1. Daylight and studio light, different kinds of light, basic principles, possibilities of changing the light character and mastering the light. Advantages of particular systems.

2. Rudiments of exponometry, fotometrical units, different types of measuring instruments ? advantages and ways of measuring and controlling, luminance range of the scene, exponometrical tools, zonal system.

3. Basic kinds of cameras, their construction, advantages and use.

Practical assignment: work with Sinar camera - making 1 print under glass with grey and colour model - demonstration of transferring colours into black and white spectrum, deciding on the right exposure, and demonstration of ways of developing 6x9 cm. (1 enlargement 24x30cm has to be submitted)

4. Theory of displaying, lens´ construction and defects, resolution.

Practical assignment: Extreme limits of school lenses, visual field, basic tests of resolution, 1 photograph of the surface structure of a subject with practical use of Scheimpflug?s condition of developing the film 9x12cm. (1 enlargement 30x40cm has to be submitted)

5. Perspective and focal length, equalization of perpendiculars - restitution, deciding on light range of the scene in a studio.

Practical assignment: making 1 composition of geometrical subjects with different lighting (each surface 1 EV difference) and perspective, using restitution in one picture. (1 picture made with Sinar Camera 18x24 cm)

1 composition of geometrical subjects using roll film 6x9 with no other specified conditions. (1 index print 18x24 cm, 1 enlargement 30x40)
