Coney Island fabric Shoot: Due May 3

On April 19 we went to Coney Island to do a photo shoot!

Assignment:
Please bring a piece of fabric (any color except black white or gray). You can shoot the fabric however you want when we're at Coney Island- as a still life, fashion etc...but come up with a plan. This project is reminiscent of what it may be like if you were asked to shoot a clothing catalogue. It is important that the colors in the photograph match the actual fabric being sold. The goal of this assignment will be to get your print to match the color of the fabric. You will have to hang the piece of fabric next to the print in Crit on May 3. Use a Macbeth Color Checker Chart during the shoot to achieve accurate colors.

DUE APRIL 26:
4x6 proofs of 10-15 of your best images from the fabric shoot. We will help each other edit it down to 5.

DUE MAY 3:
Five GOOD Prints from the fabric shoot that create a mini-series. 8x10 Size, whatever paper type you want. Remember to use the color profile or ICC profile that worked best the last time you made prints. Hang the fabric along side the images on the wall during critique to compare color.

Using the Macbeth color Checker Chart in the first shot can assure accurate color in the shots that follow:
