A Complete Guide to Manual DSLR PhotographyLearnPick
It’s a commonly known fact that most beginner photographers use the auto mode on their DSLR cameras to click snapshots in the best possible manner.
It’s a fair enough practice; there’s no denying this fact but, at the same time, you must also remember that the auto mode of a DSLR doesn’t use the camera to its full potential.
So if you are willing to step out of your comfort zone to the "manual” mode, this presentation can help.

Understanding Exposure Triangle in PhotographyAbhijit Ghosh
The exposure triangle is a common way of associating the three variables that determine the exposure of a photograph: Aperture, Shutter speed, and ISO. One must balance all three of these to achieve a desired result, an adjustment of one requiring adjustments of at least one of the others. They do not only affect exposure, but are also the largest determiners of the global appearance of an image; thus, their mastery is absolutely crucial both for technique and composition.
Objective:
1. To learn how to use the exposure triangle to set a correct exposure in your camera.
2. To learn about the link between ISO, shutter speed and aperture.
3. To learn what aperture is, and how to use it creatively.
4. To learn what shutter speed is, and how to produce blur or freeze motion photos.
5. To learn what ISO is, and how to prevent 'noisy' photos.
Target Audience: Photography Enthusiasts
Agenda:
• To understand Correct Photograhy Exposure.
• To understand the components of Exposure Triangle.
• To know how to balance all the three elements of Exposure Triangle to achieve a desired result.
• Understanding the purpose and value of exposure is a must for photographers, particularly beginners who are serious about developing their craft.
Expected Outcomes:
By the end of the ppt/pdf, the participants will be able to:
1) Better understanding of each of the three exposure settings, how they are measured, what they do, and how they interact.
2) Better equipped to manipulate the exposure of your images, as well as the artistic presentation of motion, depth of field, and digital noise.
3) Better control of the manual mode in camera.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
2. Summary of the title sequence
In the beginning we see a couple of text which presents the
Production companies of the film. Then, it smoothly cuts to show the
directors name ‘JAMES WANN’ and gradually fades in to the next shot which
shows a young boy sleeping in his bed. It then leads us through the entire
house where we Notice a shadow behind the curtains. The camera then
moves closer to the shadow to show a scary woman standing by the
curtains holding a candle Lit up. We then see the title of the film on full
screen and after that it leads us on to other Locations in the house where
we see more shadows/ghosts. During this they showcase the names of the
actors in the film.
3. Mise-en-scene
Costumes- through out this title sequence we see a young boy who is possibly wearing pyjamas suggesting
night time. We also see a shadow of a evil women holding a candle who looks like she’s wearing a black old
looking veil and some old fashioned clothes . This could suggest historian times and also evilness as she’s
wearing black which has symbolic codes of death and danger.
Makeup- When the close up of the women is shown, we see her pale skin with wrinkles and rotten old teeth which
could suggest her age. The darkness around her eyes and mouth could suggest that something is hidden
underneath which could foreshadow something about this women.
Props- In the beginning we see the boy surrounded by his teddy and also during the end we also see
a couple of other toys that could possibly be his. This could connote that this boy is vulnerable and young-
hinting his age. We then see the evil women near the window holding a candle, this has a binary opposition of
light and dark, light being the candle lit up and dark in the surrounding of the women suggesting that there is
evilness and innocence in this house. We also see an old clock featured quite a lot by the end of the sequence
which Suggests its importance. It also fits the conventions of a horror film.
Lightning- Throughout the sequence its always shown as dark and dull symbolising that there is something
Mysterious and unusual in this house. Some parts of the house is darker than others suggesting the main and
important areas in the film and what's yet to be figured out. The combination of light and dark binary
opposition is also one of the convention of the horror genre.
Actors - During the end of the sequence we see a family photo of
the characters in the film. We can see that the family looks happy
and that the man in the family is very protective of his kids and
wife by the way his arm is wrapped around them . In addition, the
fact that he is taller them emphasises that he has to look over
them and protect them.
Setting- its clearly set in a new house, which seems to be
haunted due to the isolated establishing shot shown
towards the end. The cardboard boxes next to the room
suggest that they’ve just moves in.
4. Tilt shot -The camera slowly tilts downwards to show the little boy sleeping. Its goes in a semicircle
circle action to show around the room where the little boy is sleep, this is to show that the he’s all
alone suggesting that he’s more vulnerable. The little boy is a convention of a horror film as he’s
innocent.
Panning shot-as it slowly moves from left to the right side of the room leading to the next location.
close up shot -when the camera pans around the room as the shadow appears and then moves into
the room beside it and does a close up shot of the women holding the candle.
Establishing shot of the house- to show the audience where the action is taking place in the new
scene. In this shot you can see the cloudy sky and the trees beside the house. The use of the house is
a very stereotypical setting for a horror genre. The fact that it is in black and white emphasise that
this is in the old times.
The camera cuts to different locations showing the audience around each room to show the layout.-
which is typically what you would see in a ‘haunted’ house. E.g. loads of stair cases going around,
olden clocks, lamps etc. All the shots are in black and white to create an olden look to it.
Ariel shot- from the stair case looking down which could also be a point of view shot suggesting that
someone could be looking down from upstairs creating a sense of enigma. Also, the shadow on the
ground could also link to the e Ariel shot, that someone is watching over.
There is slightly tilted angled shot of the old clock in the corridor, with a dark shadows around it
which could foreshadow that the clock is linked to something mysterious. the tilt in the shot gives a
sense of confusion to make the audience wonder what could happen next.
Close-up shot -during the end there is a close up shot on just the old clock suggesting that ,that is the
main focus of the shot which draws the audience in.
Tracking shot-the camera slowly moves forward to the dark hollow area in front of the corridors
which creates tension and suspense to the audience leading them on to something unexpected.
Camera
5. Editing
in the beginning we see the credits which is written in red and in capital letters. The
colour red is used to symbolise blood and death which is one of the conventions of a
horror film. The colour contrast is very effective as the red is there to make it stand out
from the black background and lets you focus on the main part of the frame. The credits
then fades out into a foggy looking image which connotes something ghostly which also
follows the conventions of a horror genre. The foggy image gives a sinister feel to it.
The second shot is of a bright lamp with the producers name in the centre of the frame.
This frame has both light which connotes innocence, vulnerability and goodness as well as
darkness which connotes evilness and danger. This conveys that both may be presented in
this film.
in most shots the images are black and white towards the end which suggests olden
times which are usually more mysterious. In addition, the black and white images which
looks very isolated instantly suggest that this house may be haunted.
Within every images there is a dark glow surrounded around it which could indicate that
there may be something unusual around here.
From beginning to end the editing is very slow to let the audience take in everything. The
pase also creates a sense of suspense and foreshadows that something dramatic could
happen later on. The shots continues to change from one to another and during this it fades
from one to another making it look mysterious
6. Sound
In the beginning there is some non-diegetic sound used to emphasise a mysterious feel. As we
move across the room the non diegetic sound changes and starts to create more tension
when the shadow is noticed. It begins to create a sense of evilness and high pitched tone
mostly likely to be played by a violin. This emphasises to the audience that there is going to be
something terrifying behind that curtain. As the camera gets closer to the shadow the sound
becomes quiet and fades into the next shot.
The next shot is where the title is revealed, with a sudden dramatic noise to create an
immediate reaction from the audience.
Following this shot, there rest starts to have an unreal, strange and ghostly sound leading to
the end of the scene to give a sense of concern. Between these shots some start to change
from a higher pitch to a lower pitch which continuously follows the conventions of a horror
genre of a curious and deadly ending.
