Self-Portrait / Professional Portrait

Self-Portrait Photography

For a self-portrait i think originality and uniqueness is what makes a good photo. If you just show yourself and how you are through photography it will come out great. When you just do what everyone else does its not so good. When you do things that no one else will do thats when it turns into something great.




Professional Portrait

When doing a Professional Portrait i think its best if you do something that looks good but also something that your model likes. Mostly what he or she is comfortable with. Also do things that get them out of there comfort zone too.





Myself ;


I think i want to use the self-portrait because i get to pick what i want in my photo and get to be unique what i want. I really don't have to stand a certain way like the photography wants just something that i am comfortable with and can manage to do.

Ethics in Fashion Photography

1. List the changes that were made to the model's face in the computer. (Look carefully)
Her neck was pushed up, her eyebrows were pushed up, her neck was made skinnier, and so was her face.
Some of the changes that were made to the model's face were all the distortions made to it on the computer's program. Her neck was made longer, her eyes and cheeks were bigger.

2. Is it ethically acceptable to change a person's appearance like this in a photo? Why or why not?
I believe it is not ethically acceptable to change a person's appearance because, if for example in the video, the girl's face was changed to sponsor make-up. It is going to make people believe that the product can do stuff it can't. I think that it is not fair for others to change a person's appearance even with their consent.


3. Are there circumstances in which it would be more ethically wrong to do this type of manipulation?
I think that all the circumstances are ethically wrong, it does not matter if one is less "ethically wrong" or "right".

4. What types of changes are OK, and what aren't?
Changes that are OK to do are the ones made to non-living stuff. That is because no one is actually affected by its changes.

5. Explain what you think the differences are between fashion photography and photojournalism.
Photojournalism isnt as fake of an industry, in photj beauty is the eye of the beholder, in fashion photography beauty is in the eye of the majority population.
6. What relationship does each type of photography have to reality, and how does this affect the ethical practice of each?
People look towards fashion photography as a basis of what to wear and what not to wear, affecting how people dress. Photoj can provide an in depth look on parts of society that some people are unfamiliar with, influencing a persons point of view with new knowledge.

Photo Manipulation and Ethics

The main points of the storie is that theres somethings that you cant photoshop for certain purposes. Then theres somethings that dont matter if you photoshop. The main thing they were talking about is that you cant just do whatever you want when it comes to important things.

B. I think that the kind of photo editing they were doing to those pictures were unethnical because its important to not mess with what really happened in the original picture. Especially the pictures with the missels.

A. I think this picture is unethical because it doesnt follow any rules of photography.

B. I think this picture is the least unethical because i guess you could say that it could be the rule of thirds.

National Geographical Warm-up

1. Post your favorite photo.

2. Tell me why this is your favorite photo (write at least 3 sentences)

Its my favorite picture because you really looks like time-traveling or something. On one part its kind of still and then super fast on the other. I've never really seen someone take a picture like that !

3. Think about your world, what photo would you take to submit to this photo contest?
                 I would need to take a picture somewhere in the world that is outdoors. Something that has its own uniqueness feel to it. 

Theme parks

1. Tell me which amusement park featured in the two articles that you would like to visit and take your camera along and what about that park made you want to go there. Write at least a paragraph.

                                Six Flags, New Orleans

2. Post one photo from that park. You may use the photos from the link, or you can google an entirely new photo. I would prefer to see a photo of the park in disrepair and not a photo of it when it was still operating.

3. Think of at least FIVE other unusual places you think would be of interest to photographers. List them.
        Museums, Zoo's, Trains&Subways, Warehouse, Malls, & in the streets at night.

4. Use google or another search engine to research ONE of your five places and see if anyone has already started documenting that place. If you find that someone has already started - post at least one photo of their work.

        

5. Write a paragraph about why you think that it would be fun to document that location. Tell me what interests you about that place and what kind of photos you could expect to take there.
                It interest me because there is always some kind of stuff going on in trains and subways. There are alot of interesting people who get on trains. People dance of trains, they just sit there listening to those big headphones, and old people get on. Just random things people don't normally think to take a picture of are the things that interest me. Even just a picture of a little girl with her mom or something could be a good picture. I don't normally want to take simple or "the usual" kind of pictures.

6. Tell me what it would take for you to go and take photos at your location. What would you need as far as equipment goes, travel plans, expenses you might encounter and what laws you would have to take into consideration to take photos at your spot. 
             As far as equipment i wouldn't really need much just a camera. Expenses; just enough to keep riding the train all day and night. Lastly as far as laws i would probably need permission from people to take pictures of them.
