 * You'll also shoot 2 of your photo-composition projects each at 1, 3, 5. All 3 locations have great gardens for you to wander around in, have fun, and compose some great images.
 * Be sure to consult our Museum List for the specific photo you need to take for "credit" for each of the 6 museums.
 * If you'd like to go to more than 6 museums you can go to as many from our list as you like. Museums after 6 will count as Extra Credit.

Wiki Profile

 * You started making your Wiki-Profile or Wiki-Home page in the first week. So, after a few weeks it should really start to look like something. A "nice" home page is due at the end of Week 5 (Sunday, March 2 by 11:59pm)
 * There is not any specific ingredient that is required. You don't have to include anything you don't want to share with the class. But you should make a nice profile that tells something about you and/or your life and/or your interests / hobbies / major / etc
 * A couple of photos will make your home page look //much// better.
 * A good page also means that all your links and page names and photo names are "proper" (see Photo-Wiki-Naming if you're unclear on this)

If you have any questions on what to do or how to do it, see Glenn or one of the TA's
 * Office Hours: W 12-2 in FO4-267
 * Or [|Instructor > Discussion]

Here are a few impressive examples:
 * Danni Kong • Mirna Rodriguez • Jeana Dickey • Suzy Student • Katie Gaston • Alex Dy • Joan Park • Geoffrey Lee

Midterm

 * Yes, we have one! 200 points! Study!
 * You can find some clues to what will be on it here: Blue Book
 * Bring 2 Large Blue Books
 * Write on **every other line** (so we have room in-between to give you insightful feedback)
 * Midterm is Open Book / Open Note / Open Laptop - **BUT** be warned, it will be long! If you try to look too much up with Book-Notes-Laptop you'll never have time to finish. Use these resources sparingly. Specific notes on what you want to put for the sample questions will be the quickest to use and the most valuable.
 * The UT-108 seats do not have desktops like most classrooms, but we do have a cart full of boards at the front of the room that you can use to write on.
 * The Midterm is scheduled for Class 10.1 -  Tuesday 8 April

PhotoCD

 * Your team has taken a lot of photos this semester: Museums, Photo Recreations, Photo Compositions, your own spring break adventures, you name it!
 * You've been dutifully removing red-eye, adjusting contrast, color, etc... and resizing your pictures to a wiki-friendly 800 pixels, and renaming your files...

Now it's time for **each student in the class** (yes, this is the one thing in Art110 you do individually, not the "team") to pick your 20 best / favorite images from the class.
 * 20 great images
 * Burn to CD - no sub-folders, just 1 folder with 20 images in it (not 19... not 21... your 20 best)
 * This one time, it's not resized to 800 pixels, it's your full camera images that you've been saving all semester.
 * Rename your files: "Last_First-PCD01jpg"... "Last_First-PCD20.jpg" (eg: Zucman_Glenn-PCD01.jpg)
 * No shots of just paintings in museums - images of you and your teammates
 * Tight images: red-eye removed, contrast & color adjusted, etc
 * Turn-in in-class 14.1 or 14.2 - just bring in a CD, you don't need a jewel case, I'll bring in a spindle for you to stick your disk on
 * Get a regular silver CD and write: **Name, Spring 08, 9a or 11a** on it with a black sharpie (don't use a black CD that will be hard to write on / read
 * **Great Photos!** Composition: Interesting & Compelling, Technical: Good exposure, focus, contrast, color (or B&W, Sepia, etc)

=Extra Credit= 6 T-Shirt Days, 15 Movie Nites, plus various special events as they come up through the semester. See the Extra Credit page for details.
