Sports/Action More Details

1.Name of photographer - Alyssa Schukar

General focus of portfolio - I think that this video was made to show love or pain, because the judges were talking about how there wasn't really any love or pain shown on the pictures.

List three problems that the judges note with the portfolio - They thought that the pictures were of a certain distance, they don't feel the love of the pain in none of the pictures, and there wasn't enough strong single pictures.
List two things the judges like- They liked the kids in the stair way, and the girl that fell over the hurdles.

What is your overall impression? What did you like or not like? I personally didn't like how the video was set up. I think that they could of taken better pictures for this because it is kind of confusing to understand what the video is really about.

2.Dustin Snipes, What did the judges note as strengths as they were critiquing it? They judges liked all of the pictures, they had very good comments about the pictures and I also think that the guy did a good job with this portfolio.

What do you see as strengths? Do you see any weaknesses? He was really creative with his pictures and made them look really nice, but he also had a couple pictures that looked alike.

3. Watch the contest recap video.
Briefly describe the process the judges went through in deciding the winner.
The judges took a look at all of the pictures in each of the portfolios, they talked about each of their weaknesses and the strenghts that they had after talking it over they decided on who the winner was.

1. Describe one photo that you agree with the judges on. Explain why you and the judges do or do not like it.

2. Describe one photo that you do NOT agree with the judges on. Explain why you think the judges are wrong.

Japanese Earthquake

I feel sorry for the people who lived around this area, because the fire is huge ! Personally I am really scared of fire, the smoke looks scary and it's something that I would never want to be close to.

This picture makes me feel bad for the people that live in Japan, because from one day to another they lost all the probably worked really hard for. Now they have to start from scratch what they already had.

This picture makes me think of how much damage and disaster a earthquake and a tsunami can cause, and the kind of things that can occur afterwards.

Touching People

1. What do you think about this project and photo essay? I think that this is a good project and essay, it sounds like it was kind of fun to see what people really think about it.
2. What would you do if someone approached you with a camera and asked you to participate in a photo shoot and then asked you to touch a stranger? Most likely i would not do it because i would feel really weird taking a picture with someone i don't know.
3. Think of an unusual photo shoot similar to this one that you think would be fun to go and shoot.
4. Finally, tell me what you thought of the photography, did the photographer think about the rules of photography that you know about? What types of photos did he take?  I think that the photographer did an alright job, on some he did follow the rules of photography but on others he didn't. Some of his photos were really good and others weren't as good. The photographer didn't do so much of a bad job, the pictures were pretty good from my point of view.

Cool advertising idea

I chose this as my favorite advertisement because this reminds me of Paris, and I have always wanted to visit Paris. But this wouldn't make me want to buy a this phone, because it is just a picture and it doesn't really make you want the phone the shape is the only thing that calls my attention.
