Photographer and Speaker Badge: requirements

Hey guys, I'm just posting the requirements here as some of you may not have your badges paper (and the one in the Girl Guides Singapore website may not be the same as the one on the paper). So yeah, happy looking, and those who want me to email this to them can drop a tag at the tagboard :)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Photographer's Badge

1. Know the functions of the different parts of the camera, ie, lens, shutter and stops.
2. Explain briefly what causes the production of a negative and positive print.
3. Bring to the test six prints (either black and white, colour or combination) which she has taken and printed during the previous nine months; the prints to be mounted in any of the usual ways. The six prints should come from each of the following:
3.1 Indoor/outdoor portrait/studio architecture
3.2 Landscape/Cityscape/seascape architecture
3.3 Close-up
3.4 Nature/wildlife/animals/birds/insects
3.5 Night scene
3.6 Action/sports/panning
3.7 Still life
3.8 People/kids/dance/work
3.9 Movement concerning non-human element (ie. water, leaves swaying)
3.10 Movement with human elements
3.11 Abstract
3.12 Backlight.
Out of the six prints, 3 must be taken using a DSLR and the rest taken by a compact camera. (Please indicate which clauses your pictures are under! :D )
4. Describe the conditions in which the photographs in clause 3 were taken: how the negatives were developed and the prints made; what materials were used.

Addition: Guides should demonstrate knowledge of both compact digital camera and an SLR.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Speaker's Badge

1. Recite from memory a short poem or passage of verse of choice, lasting not less than one minute and not more than two minutes.
2. Read aloud a passage provided by the tester.
3. Do the following:
3.1 Introduce and thank a visitor at a meeting (do a skit for this)
3.2 Prepare and take Guide prayers (singing grace, singing TAPS, etc)
3.3 Speak confidently and effectively to an audience for not less than three minutes and on a subject given to her five minutes beforehand.
4. Talk with the tester about something interesting which she has done or seen recently.

HELLO EVERYBODY! :DD
I'm here... to tell you guys about the new patrols, you've guessed it :)
For the seniors who've stepped down... Ms Goh and Ms Koh are rearranging the patrols, probably cause our company has increased in numbers (Y) :DD And instead of having patrols named after birds, we're having patrols named after flowers (Good thing: the emblems are very nice :D)
And another thing to note, there'll be 6 patrols instead of 5. So new ranks for some people! (Y)
New ranks will be announced next next friday (Term 2 week 1, 25th March) so check back here on 26th, I'll probably post it by then..

Now.. for all you've been waiting for... the new patrols! (Names of members are in random order, so if you're thinking of getting the new ranks of some people there... too bad xD)

1. Bougainvillea (I know, the name very chim)
Jaime

Hey you. Y
Note ;D
Guiding is an educational youth Movement.
It is open to all girls without distinction of creed, race, nationality or any other circumstance.
Lady Baden-Powell, World Chief Guide and wife of our Founder once said: In a world fraught with uncertainty and fear, our Movement shines out as a golden chain against a dark background.
The links in the chain are forged out of the finest gold, our Promise and Law.
Guiding is a game of adventure, observation, knowledge and ideas.
It is an education in life skills that will encourage each girl to be a responsible citizen and to lead a useful life.
It does not seek to compete with what parents, school, religion and other youth organizations are doing BUT to complement them.


A Guide is:
Loyal and can be Trusted
Useful and Help others
Polite, Considerate and Respects her elders
Friendly and a Sister to all guides
Kind to all living things
Obedient
Courageous and Cheerful in all difficulties
Take cares of her own possessions and those of other people
Thrifty and Diligent
Self-Disciplined in what she Thinks ,Says and Does.


The guide law:
I promise to do my best
To do my duty to God,
To serve my country and help other people, and
To keep the Guide Law
