Multimedia

My name is Michael Close and I've just began Multimedia at NTU. Yesteday we had our introduction to the course and made a pinhole camera from an empty 440ml drinks can. I have made pinhole cameras in the past so I already had a general idea of what I was doing, although previous cameras tended to be a bit bigger and were made using a cardboard box and a lens from a magnifying glass. The advantage of the method used yesterday were that there was less parts used to make it and therefore less things to go wrong. The smaller size of the camera also meant that it could be carried around easier when taking a photo. The downside of this was that the pictures produced were a lot smaller. I found that the pictures taken were of good definition but pinhole cameras used in the past produce clearer images.
