Record The Camera: The miniature Camera not only proved to be of great use to photojournalists, but it opened up new aesthetic possibilities. The ease with which the Camera could be handled freed the photographer to seek unusual view points and to record the Camera segments of the flow of life.
Make it a real point, however, to include these minor elements, unless the picture is a close-up portrait or a straight record the camera. If the picture features a group of trees, a second group or other objects a little farther away will help toward balance. In picturing such subjects as waterfalls it is often a help, rather than a hindrance, to include people who may be in the field of view. They should, however, look at the scene—not at the camera—and they should be at least twenty-five feet from the camera.
The automatic cameras which are suitable for this project are designed primarily for identification work, and it is possible to put an identifying number on each negative. Instead of using a number, however, it is better to use the same space to record the Camera the full name of each pupil. This is done by having the child's name typewritten on a card which is inserted in a slot in the camera. At the time the picture is taken of the subject, the name is photographed by a special lens and record the cameraed on the edge of the film. Such a Camera makes it almost no task at all to fill reorders which will come in when the parents have seen the pictures. |
