Documentary Synopsis

I have an idea where I would like to get pictures of the different steps of dating. Like compare the difference of dating back in middle school and dating now in high school up to dating in college. The shots would all show the difference or as much as I can get into one picture for each stage. I have younger siblings so I see the different levels every night when the three of us get down and talk. The differences are sometimes small or a couple very big and I'd love to capture it in picture and paper.

Ten Action Motion

Emotions: Tense, Caution, Danger, Focus, Intensity

I liked this picture because the background is blurred so that the think that really catches your eye are the birds that are so focused on their problem to think about anything else. And they really captured the attack post for both of them. It's not something you see everyday so they did an amazing job, I like their picture is cut, they didn't leave anything of importance out. 

Emotions: adventure, on the edge, excitement
I like this picture because they way they made it black and white takes away the blue of the water which either would have been really blue or semi white, they just changed everything to black and white. That way you can plainly focus on the suffer and the wave.

Emotion: wonder, amazement,
The fact that the bullet went through the water and the marble was on the water and lifted, its just hard to imagine how they did it but its awesome! Real respect towards the photographer because not only did they make a really cool action shot but the lighting is good and they caught everything just right.

Emotion:
I like the focus and lighting and the law of thirds used here. They had good timing to be able to get both horses on their back two legs and the punch one gave the other. I liked the background, it just adds more imagery.

Emotion:
This picture caught my eye because its a sport I have not seen but looks really intense, and I really like the detail. I think they made a good decision when they changed it to black and white

Emotions: amusement, scared, and
This picture caught my attention because the water is so clear and the dog is in midair. You can see the water drops around the dogs and off to the top left corner.

Emotions:

This picture is intense because the guy's face 

Emotions: 

I liked this action shot because not only is the skater doing a really cool loop but the angles and lines add to the effect. 

Emotions: 

This picture is really good, you can almost feel the like you're climbing and just looking down at your buddies to see how far down they are. 

Action Editorial Assignment

   The game of kickball has the potential to be a really great experience filled with laughs, smiles, inside jokes, and a whole lot of fun. But when everyone is not in the mood and the day is gloomy it can turn out to be a disaster. Lucky for us, we got to have a great experience.
 






 Although we did have that one guy that didn't want to run around or hit the ball as hard as he could, I was glad to have him on the opposite team. Our team have the most devoted players on the field. We gave everything to gain victory, and when we got it, we knew it had been worth it.
  








We had Sean sliding to second base barely missing Jonny with the ball  and got a mark to prove he was commit to the team. Then we had people diving for the ball to catch it and they gave everything including their jeans with the grass stains for the fall they took. By far I believe my team of Sean, Lauren, Haley, Spencer, Zi, Cassia, and myself was the most skilled.
  






The other team thought they had the advantage when they started out with three runs and left us behind at zero but all it took was one powerful kick from a team member and boom we got those three runs. They also gave us a struggle at first when they kept catching out kicks in between second and third base. But that was all part of the plan once we say they had their weak man on first base our kicks were redirected and they never saw it coming. I believe we got six runs in that one inning, thanks for their player Sam.
   It was fun watching everyone run, kick, catch, and slide but the best part was that with this amazing exercise we were able to do "school work" as well. I enjoyed winning, playing and taking pictures, it was one awesome class period I wouldn't have wanted to miss at all.

Action Mini-Assignment

 



This picture took a couple tries but my idea was to get the water as it came out with a splash but I couldn't time it exact so after a few tries I saw this picture and I liked it. For all the shots I took, I had to turn the ISO to 200 and then change the f-stop to f/5.6 and I came out with this.

When we walked into the library I saw people typing so I just asked Haley to type for a bit then I focused on the keyboard and got this picture on the first time. I really liked it, the color and angle.









This last picture just came out because I needed a paper for another class and I figured I'd hit two birds with one stone. The first picture came didn't come out all blurred like this one so I just asked Zi to cut faster.

Night Photography-Harold Davis

Tips-
ISO 100 and longer lens to capture the moon
Raw is better
Minutes of exposure
In star light ISO 100, 1/4 or 1/5, 3/4 mins
Longest city/car light  exposure 30 sec. to 1 min
Lowest ISO is better
Star Trails-5 mins and do not face the north
12 mins exposure for the boat in the lake ans star trails
20 mins at ISO 800 for mountains and star trails

Week 6-What I learned

This was a very interesting week, we finished working with landscape photography and then got to start with or get introduced to night photography. I learned that you need light for NIGHT photography! And it works to have a tripod and you f stop should be lower with the shutter speed faster or higher to get a pretty neat picture.

Week 5-What I learned

We have been looking at landscape photography, and I must say this has been my favorite photography week. I really enjoy landscape and working with lighting, horizontal lines, weather, and watching the landscape video. I have learned there is no such thing as a bad weather photography day, you can work with cloud or rain and sun all the same. That when shooting law of thirds is really good. Golden hours aren't always the best ones so following the law and breaking it to compare is always good.
