iPhoto - Lesson 2
On Friday (9/11/09) I gave you a handout about iLife and its Suite of products. Remember that this material will be included in your Test of September 24. Just make sure that you know a simple definition of iLife and each of its programs (iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie, iDVD, GarageBand) and understand the similarities between iTunes and iPhoto. We also started with Lesson 2 in the iLife06 Textbook.
I need you to copy the two questions and answers at the bottom of the First Blog of September 7 (previous blog entry below) in your iPhoto Notes.
By now you should know how to download pictures into iPhoto, how to create film rolls, how to open and close these rolls, how to delete and rotate pictures and how to change the information in the "Information Pane" (Titles of Film Rolls and Date). The name of the first roll you imported was changed from L2 Student roll 1 to Student roll 1, and the date was changed to Friday's date.
Class Homework – for your iPhoto Notes:
Copy the following: The Command key is the "apple" key on the Mac Keyboard, and type the Tip on page 69 (practice this so you understand what they’re talking about).
Also, answer the following questions - you can work in groups of two to answer these:
1. Where are the “Sources” in the iPhoto Window? What’s in there?
2. What is an “album” in iPhoto? How do you create an album? Mention 3 ways.
(Check Lesson 3 – pg. 76)
3. How are iTunes and iPhoto similar? (Mention at least three similarities)
4. What happens to the photos when you import them in iPhoto (where do they end up)?
5. When you are importing pictures from a digital camera, how do you know iPhoto is ready to import them?
6. How are the Library photos organized in iPhoto?
7. What do you do to view your photos by “film roll”?
8. How do you open and close a roll?
9. Where is the roll label?
10. How can you change the roll name?
11. How do you delete unwanted pictures?
12. How do you rotate or reorient your photos?
13. How do you change the default direction in which the Rotate Button rotates your photos?
14. How do you select consecutive multiple shots at once?
15. How do you select shots that aren't next to one another (non-consecutive)?
You will have to study these notes and questions for your First Test - September 24. Also review your notes on “What is Digital” and the iLife handout.
* If you complete the exercise and the class homework before other students, you can do the following practice: download pictures of your choice (one theme, ie. flowers) - from the Internet or from your digital camera (you can also connect to the Server and download photos from the iLife 06 folder - ask me for more directions). Organize them all in one film roll. Change the name of the roll to the "theme name". Delete unwanted photos, rotate the ones that are not right side up.
Practice how to create a simple Slideshow from all your film rolls. Make sure all the pictures are selected (by clicking the film roll's title) and then simply press the Slideshow button at the bottom of the iPhoto window. Select music of your choice (by clicking the Music button) and change the Settings so that the slideshow doesn't repeat over and over. Make sure the Automatic Ken Burns Effect is checked and leave 3 seconds as the Play time for each slide. You may select a different transition. Practice changing the transitions and playing your slideshow several times. Show Mrs. Feld. I need to check that you completed all the necessary steps before moving on to Lesson 3. Thanks for your cooperation!
