EXERCISE Point of View Assignment: Photograph a single subject from several different angles. At least two final prints should be produced. Goal: See how many good composi- tions you can produce by looking at your subject from all sides: front, back, right side, left side, top, bot- tom, even up close and far away. Tips: Use lighting as well as position to add variety and interest to this assignment. Try shooting early or late in the day to make use of dramatic light and long shadows. Alterna- tively, you might want to set up some kind of light source (such as a spotlight) to produce ypur own lighting effects. Most importantly, shoot a lot of film, at least one en- tire roll.
