Exam question:
Rule of thirds: The basic principle behind the rule of thirds is to imagine breaking an image down into thirds (both horizontally and vertically) so that you have 9 parts.

Emphasis: to make a part of the the artwork or photo stand out more than others. You can do this by large vs. small, light vs. dark, a bright color among dull, etc.

In another rectangle, show emphasis using light vs. dark. Write "emphasis" in the rectangle.

ADC words

Shape: an art element described as two-dimensional and enclosing an area. 
Geometric shapes: Circles, rectangles, squares, triangles and so on - have the clear edges one achieves when using tools to create them. 
Organic shapes: Are shapes with a natural look and a flowing and curving appearance. Organic shapes are associated with things from the natural world, like plants and animals. 


ADC word 
Exam question
Compositingcombine (two or more images) to make a single picture, especially electronically.


"photographic compositing by computer"



ACT word
Ambient
Exam question: 
Ambient light is the light that exists in a scene. Also referred to as “natural light” or “existing light,” ambient light can be the found light inside a home, a restaurant or concert hall, or a bright, sunny day, a deep foggy day, a city at night…in other words, any kind of pre-existing light. This is found light, not additional light that you, the photographer, might choose to add, such as flash. When photographing a scene that is lit with any kind of ambient light, you need to use a light meter to determine exposure.
