Academic Preview Assignment

Action and Emotion
I chose this for action and emotion because one it is an amazing action picture. I think it is so incredible how all the sparks are flying and it is a really pleasing photo to me. It all shows the emotion of focus. The girl doing what she's doing, is very focused giving the photo not a sad feeling, but not overjoyed.

The Story
I chose this photograph for the best story because by looking at the picture hard enough you can see that it is some sort of play taking place. You can see all the things going on and even imagine what else is happening, did happen, or is going to happen.

Filling the Frame
I chose this photograph for this topic because there are so many things to look at in this photo and the whole frame is filled. You can focus on the woman smiling, or the bright yellow flowers she's holding, or giving them out, or the guy she's giving them to, everyone around the girl and guy, the giant yellow object in the top right corner.

1. Why did you pick this photo?I chose the photo of the male student writing in blue dry erase marker on a clear surface infant go him what looks like some sort of math problem or equation. I chose it because it drew my eye in and I thought it was interesting.
2. What rules of photography are evident in the photo?
The rules of photography being used could be rule of thirds and maybe even simplicity.

1. Where do you think you could take photos like the ones you look at today?

I think I could take photo's like these in an academic environment and/ or in a classroom.
2. Whose classroom would you like to visit and take photos in?

I would like to take photo's in Ms. Coopers room in the upstairs of A hall in room 224.
3. What will you do, as the photographer, to get amazing photos like you look at today?

I think I will try to fill the frame, but have one focus point and use the rules of photography we learned about in class, or at least try.

Aperture, shutter speed, and ISO

F2.8 F16+ A1. We closely relate aperture to the pupil (in our eye) A2. The smaller aperture will create a larger f-stop, the higher aperture will create a smaller f-stop A3. Aperture affects depth of field. Depth of field is the subject or what's in focus in the photograph. The aperture has a direct affect on the depth of field, the higher aperture number, the more focus the foreground will be in, the lower the aperture number, the more blurred the foreground will be. Low shutter speed High shutter speed Daylight Photo's: a) slow shutter speed because no motion is taking place b)Probably a medium- slow shutter speed because there could be little motion c)Probably a medium- high shutter speed because the stars are moving quickly but in light d)Again, a medium- high shutter speed because they may not be moving as quick as the stars, but are moving somewhat fast and are in daylight e)Around a medium shutter speed because no one is running in and n...

Post Shoot Reflection

1. What challenges did you encounter while trying to get the photos of your first 4 prompts (Square, Metal, Happy, Bowie) I had a little bit of a challenge with getting the photo's I wanted in the time limit we were given. 2. What technical aspects of photography or the assignment in general (focus, framing, holding the camera, etc.) did you find yourself thinking about the most? Provide a specific example of what you did to do this correctly. I was thinking mostly about what photo I could take to where someone could get a relative idea of the prompt, but I was also focusing on having a focused picture, because I always seem to try and get closer to objects in the photo's I take. 3. If you could do the assignment again, what would you do differently now that you know some basic rules of photography? I think I would try to incorporate more of the aspects of photography into my photos and see if I liked the outcome better. 4. What things would you do the same? I thin...

100 Photographs

1) I chose A Man On The Moon, and First Cell Phone Picture because they were both big accomplishments. Where would we be without having Neil Armstrong walk on the moon? How would our life be different without the cell phone, it was what led us into a huge technology advancement. I also chose the Black Power Salute because of all the events it came to just to fight for equality, and that we have com far from the Equal Rights Movement. I chose The Terror Of War and Hitler At A Nazi Party Rally because I thought Hitler caused war and death and that brings terror and worry. There are wars still going on in our time today it's almost like it's part of our life and that it is gaurenteed to happen. 2) For A Man On The Moon, I read that it was Aldrin in the photo, that Neil Armstrong took. Aldrin didn't really care for being the second man on the moon. Neil Armstrong got lot's of credit and Aldrin not so much. In the First Cell Phone Picture I read that a man named Kaun was b...
