Congo's Art Studio
Western North Carolina Region
It is time to start thinking about projects to enter into the Scholastic Art Awards. 8th graders should be considering what that might be. Here are some options:
- B/W Photo
- Digital Photo
- Painting (class project)
- Drawing (independent)
- Ceramics (independent)
And so... we begin the journey into 8th grade photography. B/W photography to start and later using digital stills and video. We start the year shooting B/W 400 speed 24 exposure film of anything and everything. The big question is: what makes a photo interesting enough for people to want to look at it..even if they don't know you? That is what we will be talking about in the next 2 weeks. Looking at photos, talking about the process, and getting ready for the big responsibility of being in the darkroom. Not to mention taking really cool interesting photos.

Ahoy Pirate Crew!
Avast! Here is a list of props we are going to need! We might make some "dummie" props of these so the cast can practice with them. If you don't know what the prop is for, get a hold of a script and read it — or watch the Pirates of Penzance video (it might be on YouTube!).
