Will you use colour or black and white, (or sepia or negative, with digital cameras)?

*Hands On!

1. Do a quick sketch of your scene on the back of this sheet. (Stick people are ok!)
2. We are going to stage and photograph each person's scene. We will take at least 5 shots of each scene to experiment with perspective, settings, light, positioning and expressions
