Task 2, Studio Visit

The first day at Uclan was an induction of the studio where we was carrying out the task for the 'portraiture exhibition'. A women who worked at Uclan came and told us all about the health and safety of being in the studio. Once we got shown round the studio and knew the safety rules, we got an induction of the darkrooms and what it was all about. 
The equipment which was in the studio at Uclan was such a better, higher quality than what we have got a Preston's College. Numerous of different lighting spread across the ceiling. By them being on the ceiling it made your task a whole lot simpler as it was never in your way when carrying out the shoot. 
Another thing was also that they an equipment called a ''light meter''. This small, simple device made your time a whole lot easier! All it basically was a meter which tells the photographer which shutter speed and f-number should be selected for the correct exposure.
