Vocab 1 by Jacob Perez

Genre

jacobperez6000 — 2022-08-17 21:02:56 UTC

A category of artistic composition, as in music or literature, characterized by similarities in form, style, or subject matter.

Camera Obscura

jacobperez6000 — 2022-08-17 21:04:45 UTC

A darkened box with a convex lens or aperture for projecting the image of an external object onto a screen inside. It is important historically in the development of photography.

35mm Film

jacobperez6000 — 2022-08-17 21:06:22 UTC

35 mm film is a film gauge used in filmmaking, and the film standard. In motion pictures that record on film, 35 mm is the most commonly used gauge.

Twin Lens Reflex Camera

jacobperez6000 — 2022-08-17 21:08:48 UTC

A twin-lens reflex camera is a type of camera with two objective lenses of the same focal length. One of the lenses is the photographic objective or "taking lens", while the other is used for the viewfinder system, which is usually viewed from above at waist level.

Gelatin Silver Process

jacobperez6000 — 2022-08-17 21:10:48 UTC

The gelatin silver process is the most commonly used chemical process in black-and-white photography, and is the fundamental chemical process for modern analog color photography. As such, films and printing papers available for analog photography rarely rely on any other chemical process to record an image.

Curator

jacobperez6000 — 2022-08-22 21:29:05 UTC

Photo curators collect, exhibit, research and maintain the photo collection at a museum. They are also responsible for the storage and presentation of photographical collections. At a museum, the curator's position is perhaps the most important position of them all.

Exhibition

jacobperez6000 — 2022-08-22 21:30:01 UTC

What is Photography Exhibition? Photography Exhibition refers to an event wherever the creator, painters, photographers show their artistic work in the hope of attracting the art lovers. These exhibitions are a good way to draw attention towards new photographers and their works.

Gallery

jacobperez6000 — 2022-08-22 21:31:09 UTC

a large room for the exhibition of pictures also : a collection of pictures.

museum

jacobperez6000 — 2022-08-22 21:32:33 UTC

a building in which objects of historical, scientific, artistic, or cultural interest are stored and exhibited.

Photography Studio

jacobperez6000 — 2022-08-22 21:33:58 UTC

A photographic studio is often a business owned and represented by one or more photographers, possibly accompanied by assistants and pupils, who create and sell their own and sometimes others’ photographs.

Balance

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-09 21:36:51 UTC

Balance is the distribution of the visual weight of objects, colors, texture, and space.

Variety

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-09 21:37:59 UTC

Variety is the use of several elements of design to hold the viewer’s attention and to guide the viewer’s eye through and around the work of art.

Pattern/Repetition

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-09 21:38:52 UTC

Pattern is the repeating of an object or symbol all over the work of art.

Proportion/Scale

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-09 21:40:15 UTC

Proportion is the feeling of unity created when all parts (sizes, amounts, or number) relate well with each other

Movement/Rhythm

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-09 21:41:17 UTC

Movement is the path the viewer’s eye takes through the work of art, often to focal areas.

Unity/Harmony

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-09 21:42:21 UTC

Unity is the feeling of harmony between all parts of the work of art, which creates a sense of completeness.

Emphasis[Contrast]

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-09 21:44:01 UTC

Emphasis is the part of the design that catches the viewer’s attention.

Line

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-16 03:36:13 UTC

An element of art defined by a point moving in space. line may be two or three dimensional, descriptive, implied, or abstract.

Shape

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-16 03:37:31 UTC

An element of art that is two-dimensional, flat, or limited to height and weight.

Form

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-16 03:39:45 UTC

An element of art that is three dimensional and encloses volume; includes height, width, AND depth (as in cube, a sphere, a pyramid or a cylinder.) form me also be free flowing.

Value

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-16 03:42:19 UTC

The lightness or darkness of tones or colors. White is the lightest value; black is the darkest. The value halfway between these extremes is called middle gray.

Space

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-16 03:45:38 UTC

An element of art by which positive and negative areas are defined or a sense of depth achieved in a work of art.

Color

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-16 03:49:32 UTC

An element of our admit of a feed properties: hue, value, and intensity.
• Hue: name of color
•Value: Hues lightness and darkness (a color’s value changes, when white or black is added)
• Intensity: quality of brightness and purity (high intensity= color is strong and bright; low intensity=color is faint and dull)

Texture

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-16 03:50:17 UTC

An element of art that refers to the way things feel, or look as if they might feel if touched.

Radial Symmetry

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-16 21:26:26 UTC

A form of symmetrical balance where elements within an image radiate outwards from a central point.

Symmetry

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-16 21:27:29 UTC

Symmetry (also known as formal balance) is achieved when both sides of the image hold equal weight. Photographers have creative license to take this 'symmetry' as literally or as figuratively as they please, as you can see by the two examples below.

Asymmetry

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-16 21:28:37 UTC

When a photo is asymmetrical, it has unequal visual weight on either side. But those visual elements balance out each other. This means that an asymmetrical photo still follows the rules of composition.

juxtaposition

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-16 21:29:45 UTC

combining two or more elements in the same picture, highlighting the interesting contrast between them, to create an eye-catching and thought-provoking image.

Abstract

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-16 21:31:26 UTC

Images created using photography materials and equipment that don't have an immediate association with the physical world.

Cool Colors

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-21 21:42:18 UTC

The phrase cool color is used to describe any color that is calm or soothing in nature. Cool colors are not overpowering and tend to recede in space. For this reason, cool colors typically make a space seem larger.

Warm Colors

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-21 21:43:01 UTC

The phrase warm color is used to describe any color that is vivid or bold in nature. Warm colors are those that tend to advance in space and can be overwhelming.

Neutral Colors

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-21 21:44:22 UTC

Neutral colors are muted shades that appear to lack color but often have underlying hues that change with different lighting.

Complementary colors

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-21 21:45:34 UTC

Complementary colors are pairs of colors which, when combined or mixed, cancel each other out by producing a gray scale color like white or black. When placed next to each other, they create the strongest contrast for those two colors.

Monochromatic Colors

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-21 21:46:31 UTC

Monochrome colors are all the varieties of a single hue - the tints, shades, and tones. A monochromatic color scheme will range between lighter and darker versions of the base color or hue.

Gradient

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-21 21:49:13 UTC

Color gradients, or color transitions, are defined as a gradual blending from one color to another.

Constructive criticism

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-27 21:32:21 UTC

A “constructive critique” is a critique which is constructive– it informs the photographer how to improve. To me, the only useful type of critique in photography is constructive critique.

Plagiarism

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-27 21:33:23 UTC

Copying media (especially images) from other websites to paste them into your own papers or websites. Composing a piece of music that borrows heavily from another composition.

Ethical

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-27 21:35:26 UTC

Don't intrude on private moments such as grieving; be considerate of the situation you find yourself photographing. Don't take advantage of a person's trust. If they have asked for privacy or confidentiality regarding their identity or circumstances, respect their wishes.

Objective VS Subjective

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-27 21:36:27 UTC

Based on or influenced by personal feelings, tastes, or opinions. Objective: (of a person or their judgement) not influenced by personal feelings or opinions in considering and representing facts.

Copyright VS trademark

jacobperez6000 — 2022-09-27 21:37:13 UTC

Copyrights primarily protect the rights of people who create literary, dramatic, musical, artistic, and certain other intellectual works (like history tests, and software code). Trademarks protect the use of a company's name and its product names, brand identity (like logos) and slogans.

Rule of thirds

jacobperez6000 — 2022-10-06 20:24:41 UTC

The rule of thirds is a composition guideline that places your subject in the left or right third of an image, leaving the other two thirds more open.

Leading Lines

jacobperez6000 — 2022-10-06 20:26:20 UTC

A compositional technique where human-made or natural lines lead the viewer's eyes through a photograph to the subject or the heart of the image.

Golden Ratio

jacobperez6000 — 2022-10-06 20:27:51 UTC

The photograph is divided into nine rectangles along two horizontal and vertical lines according to the golden ratio

Negative Space

jacobperez6000 — 2022-10-06 20:28:51 UTC

the empty space around the subject.

Positive Space

jacobperez6000 — 2022-10-06 22:10:24 UTC

Positive space refers to the subject or areas of interest in an artwork, such as a person's face or figure in a portrait, the objects in a still life painting, or the trees in a landscape painting.

Diptych

jacobperez6000 — 2022-10-20 20:23:36 UTC

Diptychs are a set of two photos you can use to tell a story and emphasise contrast. Or you can create one composition using two entirely different images. The word itself comes from ancient Greek. Think of diptychs as collages. If two photos aren't enough, try out triptychs (three photos).

Triptych

jacobperez6000 — 2022-10-20 20:24:22 UTC

A triptych is a group of 3 separate images displayed together. But crucially, the 3 images are more than just 3 photographs set out next to each other - they work together to create something more than that.

orthographic view

jacobperez6000 — 2022-10-20 20:26:24 UTC

the art of writing words with the proper letters according to standard usage. b : the representation of the sounds of a language by written or printed symbols. 2 : a part of language study that deals with letters and spelling.

Barrel lens distortion

jacobperez6000 — 2022-10-20 20:27:43 UTC

Lens distortion is any deformation that occurs in the images produced by a camera lens.

Pincushion distorion

jacobperez6000 — 2022-10-20 20:29:08 UTC

Pincushion distortion produces the opposite effect from barrel distortion. Instead of an image curving in, pincushion distortion causes straight lines to curve outwards from the center of the image.

Blacklight

jacobperez6000 — 2022-10-21 03:00:08 UTC

black light photography, you use black light instead of white light. White light is the light produced by ordinary lamps and flashes. It's the type of light that illuminates everything we see. Black light, also known as ultraviolet light, isn't picked up by the human eye.

Diffused Lighting

jacobperez6000 — 2022-10-21 03:02:19 UTC

Diffused light, or soft light, is light that's filtered by something. Sunlight through a sheer curtain is diffused. Light from behind a lampshade is diffused compared to the direct light of a bare bulb.

Ambient Light

jacobperez6000 — 2022-10-21 03:05:06 UTC

Ambient light is any light a photographer or cinematographer did not bring to the shoot. Also known as available light, it's any light that you haven't set up yourself. This includes natural light or even pre-existing lighting built in and around the location where you're shooting.

Chiaroscuro

jacobperez6000 — 2022-10-21 03:08:58 UTC

Chiaroscuro, is an Italian term that refers to the intense contrast of light and dark in art, famously used in the paintings of Rembrandt or Caravaggio to create a strong and dramatic mood.

Silhouette

jacobperez6000 — 2022-10-21 03:10:20 UTC

A silhouette is a solid, dark image of a subject against a brighter background. Silhouette pictures usually show the subject in profile.

ISO

jacobperez6000 — 2022-10-27 20:23:35 UTC

ISO is your camera's sensitivity to light as it pertains to either film or a digital sensor. A lower ISO value means less sensitivity to light, while a higher ISO means more sensitivity.

ASA

jacobperez6000 — 2022-10-27 20:25:09 UTC

The ASA (American Standards Association) scale is an arbitrary rating of film speed; that is, the sensitivity of the film to light. If everything else is kept constant, the required exposure time is inversely proportional to the ASA rating.

Image Sensor

jacobperez6000 — 2022-10-27 20:27:13 UTC

The image sensor of the camera is responsible for converting the light and color spectrum into electrical signals for the camera to convert into zeroes and ones. All commercially available digital cameras (still, movie, or security) use one of two possible technologies for the camera's image sensor: CCD or CMOS.

Film graim

jacobperez6000 — 2022-10-27 20:28:27 UTC

Film grain or granularity is the random optical texture of processed photographic film due to the presence of small particles of a metallic silver, or dye clouds, developed from silver halide that have received enough photons. While film grain is a function of such particles it is not the same thing as such.

Digital Noise

jacobperez6000 — 2022-10-27 20:30:03 UTC

image noise is random variation of brightness or color information in images, and is usually an aspect of electronic noise. It can be produced by the image sensor and circuitry of a scanner or digital camera.

Apeture

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-03 20:23:35 UTC

a space through which light passes in an optical or photographic instrument, especially the variable opening by which light enters a camera.

F/Stop

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-03 20:24:16 UTC

The “f” in f-stop stands for the focal length of the lens. While focal length itself refers to the field of view of a lens, f-stop is about how much light you allow to hit the sensor via the aperture opening.

lens focal length

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-03 20:25:24 UTC

The focal length of a lens is determined when the lens is focused at infinity. Lens focal length tells us the angle of view—how much of the scene will be captured—and the magnification—how large individual elements will be. The longer the focal length, the narrower the angle of view and the higher the magnification.

Depth of field

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-03 20:26:19 UTC

In simplest terms, depth of field is how much of your image is in focus. In more technical terms, depth of field is the distance in an image where objects appear “acceptably in focus” or have a level of “acceptable sharpness.”

bokeh

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-03 20:27:31 UTC

bokeh is the aesthetic quality of the blur produced in out-of-focus parts of an image. Bokeh has also been defined as "the way the lens renders out-of-focus points of light". Differences in lens aberrations and aperture shape cause very different bokeh effects.

Auto Mode

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-10 21:24:16 UTC

Automatic Exposure is when the camera chooses the optimum shutter speed, aperture, ISO and flash settings for your shot. All you need to do is point and shoot. This can be good if you have no idea of what settings to choose and also when you need to shoot quickly.

Program Mode

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-10 21:24:58 UTC

Program mode is marked by 'P' on your camera's mode dial and is one of the Creative Zone modes, though one with the least control over your exposure settings. In program mode the camera selects and sets both the shutter speed and the aperture.

Manual mode

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-10 21:25:54 UTC

“Manual” mode stands for a full manual control of Aperture and Shutter Speed. In this mode, you can manually set both the aperture and the shutter speed to any value you want , the camera lets you fully take over the exposure controls

Shutter priority Mode

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-10 21:26:39 UTC

a shooting mode whereby the photographer sets the shutter speed, while the camera automatically sets the Aperture. See TV Mode and shutter speed.

Aperture Priority mode

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-10 21:27:22 UTC

the photographer selects a specific aperture value and the camera autoselects the proper shutter speed based on how much light it detects.

Auto mode

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-17 21:18:04 UTC

Manual

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-17 21:18:09 UTC

“Manual” mode stands for a full manual control of Aperture and Shutter Speed. In this mode, you can manually set both the aperture and the shutter speed to any value you want – the camera lets you fully take over the exposure controls.

Aperture priority

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-17 21:18:40 UTC

Shutter priority mode

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-17 21:18:55 UTC

program mode

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-17 21:19:44 UTC

Shutter Speed

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-17 21:23:10 UTC

It's the speed at which the shutter of the camera closes. A fast shutter speed creates a shorter exposure the amount of light the camera takes in and a slow shutter speed gives the photographer a longer exposure.

Bulb Mode

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-17 21:24:09 UTC

The Bulb setting on camera shutters is a momentary-action mode that holds shutters open for as long as a photographer depresses the shutter-release button.

Motion Blur

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-17 21:24:50 UTC

Motion blur is a long exposure photography technique that lets you convey the feeling of movement or action in a still image. “It gives us the ability to see things in a way that we can't on our own,” says photographer Chris Sidla.

Tripods/Monopods

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-17 21:26:01 UTC

A tripod is a three-legged stand designed to support a camera. Cameras are mounted to a tripod, also referred to as “sticks,” for stability. Tripods utilize a fluid head. This also allows the camera to pan left and right or tilt up and down.

Camera shake

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-17 21:26:44 UTC

Camera shake occurs when your shutter speed is slow enough that it will not freeze your natural body shaking (breathing, muscular tension, etc.). This article will look at the many ways you can bypass this when shooting handheld in low light.

long Exposure

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-29 22:32:50 UTC

the technique in which the camera's shutter is left open during a somewhat lengthy period of time. The resulting image captures the trail of moving objects in front of the camera, while showing still elements razor sharp.

Time Lapse

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-29 22:34:13 UTC

used to capture change or movement that occurs over a long period time. In order to capture how a plant grows or a glacier moves, a photographer sets up a camera in a fixed location and takes a single picture at regular time intervals.

light painting

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-29 22:34:49 UTC

photographic technique where light is “painted” or “drawn” into the photograph using a hand held light source during a long exposure.

panning

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-29 22:35:20 UTC

Panning photography freezes objects in motion in a still frame. Explore ways to pan your camera, what shutter speed to use, and other ways to add action to your shots.

burst mode

jacobperez6000 — 2022-11-29 22:37:59 UTC

photo shooting mode called Burst shot. This mode lets you quickly capture up to 30 photos with just one touch and play them through one-by-one like a video.

Spot metering

jacobperez6000 — 2022-12-08 21:22:25 UTC

Spot metering allows the camera to measure the light reflected from the person's face and expose properly for that, instead of adjusting exposure for the much brighter light around the hairline.

partical Metering

jacobperez6000 — 2022-12-08 21:24:44 UTC

Partial metering covers only the centre 6.2% of the frame in the viewfinder, thus providing precise metering only for the subject.

Center Weighted Average

jacobperez6000 — 2022-12-08 21:25:32 UTC

The centre-weighted mode is a halfway between matrix and partial metering. It measures the exposure of a pretty big metering spot in the viewfinder of the camera. Most people take photographs in which the subject is in the metering centre of the image.

Evaluate Metering

jacobperez6000 — 2022-12-08 21:26:22 UTC

Evaluative metering is the default metering mode on most cameras. It ensures that the camera will automatically adjust to the right exposure setting even when the ambient lighting shows greater contrast.

18% Grey

jacobperez6000 — 2022-12-08 21:27:15 UTC

By definition 18% gray is the “mid-point between black and white on a logarithmic or exponential curve.” Think of it this way; it is simply halfway between black and white.

Shadows

jacobperez6000 — 2023-01-12 21:25:05 UTC

Any photo that uses shadows as a prominent part of the composition — to enhance the contrast of a subject or as the subject itself

Midtones

jacobperez6000 — 2023-01-12 21:25:38 UTC

midtone (plural midtones) (photography, art) A medium tone, one that is neither very dark nor very light.

highlights

jacobperez6000 — 2023-01-12 21:26:09 UTC

Highlights are the lightest elements in an image, whereas shadows are the darkest areas. Dynamic range is the ratio between those vivid highlights and dark shadows, from bright white to pure black.

vignette

jacobperez6000 — 2023-01-12 21:26:48 UTC

A vignette is a darker border - sometimes as a blur or a shadow - at the periphery of photos. It can be an intentional effect to highlight certain aspects of the image or as a result of using the wrong settings, equipment or lens when taking a photo.

Sepia Tone

jacobperez6000 — 2023-01-12 21:27:20 UTC

a chemical process that converts the metallic silver in the emulsion of a photographic print into a silver sulfide compound.

AF points

jacobperez6000 — 2023-01-19 21:26:27 UTC

Autofocus (AF) points are what you use to determine where the camera will be focusing the image. When you look through your viewfinder, these are the rectangles or circles that you see.

Bracketing

jacobperez6000 — 2023-01-19 21:27:29 UTC

when you bracket your shots you take exactly the same picture of your subject at several different exposures. This technique gives you a range of options to choose from when you're editing. As a result, it's much less likely that you'll end up with a badly underexposed or overexposed photo.

Exposure level indicator

jacobperez6000 — 2023-01-19 21:28:29 UTC

The exposure meter indicates the level of light reaching the sensor. Too much light results in over exposure which gives you a photo that is too light and lacking detail. Too little light results in under exposure which gives you a photo that is too dark and again, lacking detail.

Exposure compensation

jacobperez6000 — 2023-01-19 21:29:35 UTC

Exposure compensation basically helps you override automatic exposure adjustments your camera makes in situations with uneven light distribution, filters, non-standard processing, or underexposure or overexposure.

White balance card

jacobperez6000 — 2023-01-19 21:30:37 UTC

workspace switcher

jacobperez6000 — 2023-01-26 21:26:06 UTC

Go up to the Window menu, choose Workspace, and then choose New Workspace. Or, click on the Workspace icon and choose New Workspace. In the New Workspace dialog box, enter the exact same name as the existing workspace.

toolbar

jacobperez6000 — 2023-01-26 21:27:04 UTC

The toolbar is where Photoshop holds the many tools we have to work with. There are tools for making selections, for cropping and retouching images, for adding shapes and type, and many more!

palettes

jacobperez6000 — 2023-01-26 21:27:54 UTC

jacobperez6000 — 2023-01-26 21:28:52 UTC

Cropping

jacobperez6000 — 2023-02-02 21:26:57 UTC

The word Crop can be defined as “to trim” or “cut back”. The Crop tool in most image processing programs is used to trim off the outside edges of a digital image.

File formats

jacobperez6000 — 2023-02-09 21:23:44 UTC

PSD files are the native file format of Adobe Photoshop. You've probably seen files with the . psd extension format, especially if you've been an Adobe Photoshop user. Most commonly used by designers and artists, Photoshop Documents are powerful tools for image data storage and creation.

Raw file format

jacobperez6000 — 2023-02-09 21:23:58 UTC

A RAW file is the uncompressed and unprocessed image data captured by a digital camera or scanner's sensors.

.PNG

jacobperez6000 — 2023-02-09 21:24:09 UTC

PNG is short for Portable Network Graphic, a type of raster image file. It's particularly popular file type with web designers because it can handle graphics with transparent or semi-transparent backgrounds.

.JPEG

jacobperez6000 — 2023-02-09 21:24:19 UTC

Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) files are one of the most common ways to store digital photos. Many modern cameras use them to shoot and store images. JPEGs go through a compression process to significantly reduce the image file size — making them easier to store and load on webpages.

.PSD

jacobperez6000 — 2023-02-09 21:24:26 UTC

PSD files are the native file format of Adobe Photoshop. You've probably seen files with the . psd extension format, especially if you've been an Adobe Photoshop user. Most commonly used by designers and artists, Photoshop Documents are powerful tools for image data storage and creation.

HDR

jacobperez6000 — 2023-02-16 21:25:29 UTC

In photography and videography, multi-exposure HDR capture is a technique that creates extended or high dynamic range images by taking and combining multiple exposures of the same subject matter at different exposure levels
