Self Portraits

If you are given a roll a film and are asked to shoot photos of yourself, how would you approach the task?
Would you get a tripod and find the self timer on the camera -sorry not an option!
How else could you shoot photos of yourself?

Reflections!
Where do we find reflections? (mirrors, windows, water, etc.)
Can you list ten things that would reflect your image? (try)
What ways could you make these images more interesting? (other people in image, backgrounds, hands, etc.)

Challenge: Reflections Without Mirrors
Details: Photographing a reflection is easy. Now, here's the hard part: don't use a mirror as your reflective surface and don't show your camera in the picture! Your photograph must be taken this week

Project-
After viewing examples on the web, develop a working plan of ways you will attack this project.
Get roll of film from Mr. V and have fun shooting awesome images of yourself. From this roll of 24 we will print 4 good 5X7' or bigger.

Note- For your last project this 9 weeks (3rd quarter) you will develop the idea. Start making plans now, do not wait until the final week to shoot. Next project can be done traditional or digitally.
