Zone Focus- is when you focus on one specific spot, and you wait untill the thing that you want a picture of passes by or just take the picture when you want it.

Shutter Speed- is what keeps your picture from being blurry, the faster the thing you want to take a picture of, the more shutter speed you need. and if its a picture that just stays still yopu will use a low shutter speed

Panning- is when you follow the object you want to take a picture of. you follow it untill you want to take a great picture. your supposed to keep the dot on the object

9.Details- i like the way the lighting makes the whole building stick out, makes the picture look a lot better, and and how the cars look look blurry, it just makes it look like the building just stays there and and times just passes by.

I read for about 20 minutes


Langston Hughes by Toynia Edmond and i liked this poem the most because at the end shows how sad and depressing it is. And for some reason i could understand it pretty well.


This picture is a informal portrait. The sunlight is hitting the railroads which makes that look pretty good. And the prisoners are wearing stripe outfits which makes them stand out more. And they are not posting they are not looking at the camera..

IS IT OK?

So in this video they use the computer to change the way her whole face was. For example they changed the way her shoulders were, her neck size, the way her eyebrows were, her eyes, her mouth and the way her head was shaped.
I dont think its ethical to change someones appearance like they did in this video because the after picture doesnt look a thing like her and thats false advertisement. I think that putting on make-up is natural but changing the way your body is isnt right.
I think the idea of just changing the way someone looks in a picture is wrong because the picture isnt real, its a FAKE.
Fashion photography is just pretty much advertisement, to make people want to buy the things that are shown, and to make people think that if you buy these things you will look more attractive. And photojournalism is about capturing real pictures and putting them in newspapers to show people the real true moments.

A. What skills in addition to photography did Melanie Burford utilize to produce this slideshow?
the recording and how she captured her work and how well she focused on the pictures and the music, it just made it a lot better with all of those add ons she put in it shows how unique she can make something out of nothing

B. What was the effect (added power or meaning) of the multimedia effects of the slideshow.
the lighting the music the happy pictures the sad pictures
and how she just caught the real pictures not the ones you set up a

What is the most interesting multimedia effect? Post your answer on your blog.
i think that the most interesting multimedia would have to be the slideshow
because she made it like a life slideshow which i think is pretty cool and she added the sad music to the sad moments
