Jacques-Henri Lartigue is known as one of the most profound 20th century photographers who shaped and lead the way for modern photography. Working in virtual obscurity until 1962, when a chance meeting revealed his work to the world! Though best known for the photographs he took as a child, Lartigue continued to photograph, as well as paint, as an adult. Jacques-Henri Lartigue June 13, 1894 – September 12, 1986

Very late in his life, Lartigue became hailed as one of the founders of modern photography yet in reality, he was the ultimate amateur who had the passion and the drive to create remarkable series of family albums which displayed a portrait of the turn-of-the-century France, as it was portrayed through the eyes of a very young boy, from the age of 8 to 18.

Positive Space: Positive space is the area or part of a painting's composition that the subject occupies. For instance, the positive space could be a vase of flowers in a still life painting, a person's face in a portrait, etc. Negative Space: the space between objects or the parts of an object. For example the area between a cup and its handle. Also the space between an object and the edges of the canvas, i.e. the space around an object. Positive and Negative Space
23
Open negative is where you have negative space around four sides of a subject. No part of the subject touches the edge of the canvas or paper. There is "empty" space all around it. Closed negative space is where the subject stretches across the composition to touch the edge. Part of the subject closes off a part of the negative space, turning it into a smaller shape. Open and Closed Space

The rule of space says that in order to portray movement, context and the idea that the photo is bigger than just the part that you’re seeing, you need to leave clutter free ‘white’ spaces. For example if you’re photographing a runner, give him a space to run into. Don’t photograph him with all the space in the world behind him because this doesn’t help the viewer picture the forward motion & the space he has yet to run. If you’re making a portrait of a woman laughing at something not in the photo, leave space in the direction where she is laughing. This leads the viewer to wonder what’s just beyond the boundaries of the photo. What is she laughing at? Rule of Space

Balance is the distribution of the visual weight of objects, colors, texture, and space. If the design was a scale, these elements should be balanced to make a design feel stable. Principle of Design: Balance

Create a creative black and white photographic narrative series (total of 4 photos required- 200 points) showing space in the following ways: A subject with more negative space than positive A subject with more positive space than negative A subject with an equal balance of positive and negative space A subject using a composition of choice The Project

What is a narrative: the art, technique, or process of narrating, or of telling a story. Must have a beginning, middle, and end. What is a narrative?

Make sure your narrative is school appropriate and original- it may be autobiographical, biographical, non-fiction, or fiction.

If you make this too challenging and have nothing to show for it- it will be on you if you have nothing to show. Step 1: Create Your Narrative- 25 points
39
Sketch at least 15 thumbnail sketches to get ideas of how you will depict your narrative. Sketches must show compositional thought and meet the requirements for space. Also, utilize… Rule of Thirds Rule of Simplicity Rule of Space Utilize line, texture, shapes, tonal range, etc. Step 2: Sketch Ideas- 30 Points
