Transformation Project

                                                                           Congratulations!

We lost out there!

                                                                   Give me the ball.

                                                     I've never spun a ball on my finger.

                                                       

I'm taller than you....

1. Who did you transform yourself into? Why?
2. What was most challenging about this project? Why?
3. What was simple about this project? Why?
4. If you could choose one more photo to add to this transformation project, what would you add?

          I transformed myself into a basketball player because basketball is one of my favorite sports and I've played basketball since I was only 8 years old. The most challenging thing about this project was getting the skin tone close enough to the real one. The simple thing about this project was picking my idea. I didn't what to pick so I picked the idea about being a basketball player. If i had one more photo to choose I would choose to be with the NBA champions taking a photo with the President. I would just add myself to it.

Transformation Brainstorm

1. If you could transform yourself into another person, who would it be?  Would it be a person of a certain occupation?  A celebrity?  A family member? A fictional character?
2. Why do you want to transform yourself into this person?
3. What locations will you photograph yourself in?
4. What props will you need in order to complete this transformation?
5. What research will you need to do in order to photograph yourself as this person?
6. Upload a photo of inspiration for your new character. Explain how you will create the mood and expression of that person in your photo series.

I would want be Ryan Higa he is a youtube sensational person. He is really famous on youtube and featured in some TV shoes. Or I would be a BasketBall player.

I would put myself like where he is in a home video making funny stuff. For props I would need to use shirts and sunglassses. I would have to find out from each video what he does most of the time. I would have to look serious and then say something funny.

American Photography (Part 3)

1. What event from this segment was most eye-opening for you? Why?
2. How have photographs changed the way we see the world?
3. What impact have digital photos had on the world?
4. If this video were to continue on to 2011, what events would be covered? What new technologies would you see?

I thought that was most eye catching was all the wars. Because it took a big effect in history. WWI WWII and Vietnam war were some of the big moments in history It was interesting that photographers go to the war and have their own life on the line.

2. Once a picture was taken you get a little bit of what happen and you think about what was going through their mind once they took it.

3.  It helped younger people see what happen back in the past. 

4. There would be 9/11, Iraq War, Elections, etc. I would see the same cameras being used.

Digital Collage

         In this collage there are many things appearing lakes, corvette, New York skyline, The White House, San Francisco,etc. I changed them all to soft light so it would adapt to the background. I couldn't decide what to put in the collage so I decided what my interests were and put those in. I used multiple backgrounds and use soft light. I thought what was must successful was the whole thing. And there would be nothing that I could change.

Documentary Photography Project

                                                                     Can I help you?

                               

Fresh Hotdogs!

• What did you photograph for your documentary photography series? 
• Why did you choose to document this? 
• What did you want to reveal or show about it?
• What did you learn about what you documented during this process.  
• What is your favorite image and why? '

I documented this series because I thought it would be interesting to see what citizens do on a Saturday morning at the farmers market.
 I wanted to show that everything can be photographed and be very interesting to everyone.
 That everything can be photographed and documented.
 My favorite picture was the second picture because he had a hotdog hat on that day.
