Approaches To Studio Lighting
Assignment #6 – Job


Please hand in your unmounted print in a polyethylene or polypropylene storage bag together with conservation board, proof sheet(s) and this sheet.

Assignment Description:
Each student in the class will describe a photograph that can be made in the studio with excruciating detail on paper. These descriptions will subsequently be redistributed to someone else in the class. The student will be required to work with their client (the student who wrote the job) to accomplish the task on schedule. The student is free to interpret the appropriate camera, technique, and approach to lighting that best suits the client's description.

Assignment Objective:
In the world of commercial studio photography when push comes to shove it all comes down to satisfying your client. This assignment will prepare us for that shock.

Suggestions:
Communicate kindly with your client (the student who wrote the picture description). Ask for sketches and additional information to the description provided, if needed. Don't ever be late. In the real world you have to get it right the first time. Think of your other classmates and instructor as peers with whom you may discuss informed options.

Evaluation Criteria:
Grade "A" means the client loved your work and is likely to rehire you.
Grade "B" means the work was acceptable, pretty good, but you will probably not get rehired.
Grade "C" means you got paid with a grudge, but the relationship with the client is definetly over.
Grade "D" means you did a poor job, probably not on time, and you didn't get paid.
Grade "F" means you are being sued in a court of law by your client for not getting the job done.
