Basic Photo Level 1 guided study aide

BeginThis is a guided study aid to help you prepare for your up coming exam. This power point will lead you through brief overviews of the two main sections of our class this past semester; basic camera knowledge and artist recognition. For the camera portion you will be given information and expected to answer multiple choice questions accordingly. There will also be a tutorial video which you will be expected to retrace the steps to achieving a correct exposure after watching. In the phographers portion you are expected to review the artists individual pages for a bulleted look at their contributions. Take notice of the images accompanying the artists pages as any could be tested for on your actual exam. Use this study aid to your advantage as there is a direct correlation between the information given and types of questions seen here that will be present on your final exam.
