In Studio Red we do a lot of talking about tools. Together we develop ideas about both the physical and thinking tools we use to figure things out. Last week Ray requested to share his camera and it became the catalyst for the introduction of our classroom cameras. We have spent these first few weeks in small groups working in partners to figure out how this tool works.

THE FINGERPRINTS ON IT MAKE IT BLURRY. Lyla
I think we have to move because the sun is in our way. BEATRICE
It has to be a little shady and a little sunny. You don’t want it to be too shady or too sunny. BROOKE
Take a breath and then take the picture. CHARLIE
If you go closer you see lessie. If you go further, morey. BROOKE
