Assignment 10.1

1.  Explain the Exposure Triangle.

The Exposure Triangle is a term which is widely used by photographers to refer to the three main components of a camera system that a photographer adjusts to control exposure. The three components are aperture, ISO, and shutter speed. The use of these components determine how the photo will turn out.

2.  List the 3 components and what each controls. 

1.) Aperture- The hole in a lens that controls how much light is allowed to enter the camera body. This affects the brightness of the photo because of the aperture being small or large.

2.) ISO- A setting used on a camera to darken or lighten a photo. 

3.) Shutter Speed- The speed of how fast a camera's shutter shuts. Can be used to control the motion of subject and can be used to add a blur effect. 

Assignment 9.2

1.  Define Aspect Ratio

Aspect Ratio is an indicator of the proportional relationship of the width to the height of the screen and is depicted with the expression x:y, where x equals the number of units wide and y equals the number of units high.

2.  List the aspect ratios for the following formats:

• 10" tablet (9.7" display): 4:3
• Smartphone (4.7" display): 667:375
• Leaderboard Ad: 364:45
• HDTV: 16:9

3.  Explain the difference between Interlaced & Progressive scanning.  Embed an image(s) that illustrate each. 

Interlaced scanning scans each frame of an image which is captured in two parts and is transmitted separately, one field at a time. Progressive scanning scans the lines of an image from top to bottom. Interlaced is used mainly for TV while Progressive is used mainly for computers.

Assignment 9.1

1.  Define Graphic & Image.  What is the difference in the two? 

Graphic is a type of visual presentation that can be seen on a physical surface like a drawing, illustration, symbol, etc. Image is a 2D or 3D representation of a person, animal, object, or in the real world that can be still or in motion.

2.  Explain the difference between Raster & Vector images.  

Raster images are made up of pixels while Vector images are made up of mathematical paths and lines. Vector images can be scaled to make the image larger and it will not lose it's quality; while Raster images would come out messy.

3.  Why should you avoid upscaling whenever possible?

Upscaling can possibly ruin the image because when you upscale you don't redefine the pixel count or structure of the image.  

4.  What is the difference between Aliased and Anti-Aliased text? 

Aliased text has that stair step/ jagged-edge effect to it due to it being made from squared pixels; while anti-aliased smooths out that effect.
