Thanks Casey!




Hi Everyone,

Last Friday we had a guest speaker in our Media Studies class.  Casey Lessard is a photojournalist from the Grand Bend area who put on an excellent demonstration in our classroom!  

Casey began his presentation with a slideshow of some of his best photographs.  He emphasized the importance of proper lighting before taking a photo as well as how to accurately focus a picture.  He also critiqued one of my photos by showing the flaws found in my original photo. 

At the end of the class he had a volunteer model and another student in the class as the photographer.  He had our model sit with the proper lighting on his face and the student photographer had to properly position the photo to get a great shot.  Check out the results posted on this page.

Thanks again Casey!
