In-Depth Photo Illustrations

The photo made into art


This image is illustrating a gun with a flower coming out of the end.
I like this image because there are different textures going on with the different objects.




The photo realistic alteration


This image is illustrating a couple kissing
i like this image because there is so much action going on, but the woman in the middle is put in emphasis by being still.


The composite image





This image is illustrating a forturne teller and a scarecrow in the field.
I like this image because its random. You never think of a fortune teller in the field, its like she was just put in there.


The staged illustration


This image is illustrating a woman looking at a snow globe.
I like this image because the colors are calm and they tie in with the calmness in the snow globe.

Action Photography

Zone Focus is where you figure out where action is going to happen, and you let it come to you.
Shutter Speed needed to freeze action is very high, fast.
Panning is when the lens is moving with the action, you take the photo while your moving with the camera.
Waiting for the Pause is to wait for the moment right before something is going to happen.

This photo shows the entire building. The main focus of the picture is how the light works with the building. It was taken during the night time. The darkness of the sky is in good contrast to the lights on the building. It was taken with a slow shutter speed and a small aperture.

PART 1

Alyssa Schukar
dealing with problems
distance, same lens and feel, no strong sigles, dark
kids in stairway, baseball celebration
The pictures had a different emotion
The story told is changed. started with eating disorder..


Travis haughton
family
Heads not faing camera dominating frame. pictures of signs. not good quality
Nice moments. nice action
He focuses on little kids
He had diversity.

Nick Adams
Stories
Focus. too many kids. not showing a story.
The strenth to take the 1st picture.
Bad Framing. good graphically
Most of the pictures look like they're cut off

carlos delgado
story
Cluttered background. fuzzy background. bad color. captions dont match pictures
Good cloud picture.
the judges are really negative
Some of the stories the pictures tell are incomplete


Winning portfolio
good angles, everyone is doing something, good moments
good color
too much photoshop, some look setup

contest recap video
Something that stands out, that doesnt have the same feel as the others.
rewarding diversity
good editor
no bad pictures

PART 2

The 1st picture story. He did a really good job in telling a story in 8 pictures. he covers different aspects and it comes together really good.

The judges think that the 2nd picture story is good and i think it isnt. They think he describes the sport in a good way and makes it excating. The only picture that seemed exciting was the one of the fan being excited.

Cover History

Early Magazine Covers

The early magazine covers have similar qualities of book covers.
They contain no information of whats inside of the magazine.

The Poster Cover
Poster covers convey a mood.
The picture was relied on to catch the readers intrest.
Pictures Married to Type
Some magazines depended on the cover lines to draw the reader in.
Cover lines were modest. Fashion magazines were more creative.
In the Forest of Words

Cover lines are equaly important to the art.
Words overlap the art.
People rent parts of their bodies for advertisment.
