Forced Perspective

1. What is Forced Perspective? Describe in 2-3 sentences
Using optical illusion to make objects closer, farther, bigger, or smaller than the actual size of the object. An example is putting a a small figure closer to the viewer increases the size of the object perceived by the viewer, even though the object remains a constant size. Another example is taking a photo that makes the length of a tunnel or stairs appear longer/farther than it's actual length.
2. What is Macro Photography? Describe in 2-3 sentences
Taking really, REALLY close up photos of a subject, usually done with a macro lens. An example is a photo of an ant that appears to be large and usually having detailed features, when ants are really less than a centimeter in size.
3. What is Micro Photography? Describe in 2-3 sentences
Taking close up pictures of really small things (which is also macro photography). Or the photo is just really small.
4. Think of 3-4 things you will need to do to get these photos to come out.

  • tiny figures that can be taken up close 
  • a camera with a certain viewpoint
  • a significant distance between subjects
  • very large-numbered aperture
