Creative and experimental photo
techniques can happen by camera control, when printing in the darkroom,
or by toning the print afterwards. It is also possible to create many
techniques in Photoshop.
In this unit you will be
trying some traditional and some digital creative techniques. Many of these
techniques were discovered by people making mistakes, but liking the result and
repeating it. You have already tried some of these techniques in Block 1.
You need to collect examples of creative imaging techniques into a scrapbook, comparing them with the photographs that you take, and describe the techniques.

Step 1: For any new project the first step is to start looking at examples
of the techniques. Start a scrapbook and collect two examples of each of these
techniques. I have looked for a few links to get you going:
Lens zooming during exposure
Fast shutter speed in sport or action photography
Filters
eg star burst, graduate, soft focus, red (in black and white photography),
sepia, polarizer filters
An
image printed through a texture screen, or using a texture Photoshop layer
Print toning, using sepia, selenium, or even tea.
There are more links and examples in last year's post.
