Magazine Analysis Assignment

The past Monday we were assigned an assignment that was based on finding out information about professional photographers in daily magazines that everyone reads. While researching for this paper i came across many different things that gave me many different ideas. I also learned some about how photographers that shoot for monthly magazines get to do some really interesting traveling and they get to experience alot of different cultures around the world. I picked a surf magazine after finding out that the magazine i originally picked up for this assignment was an yearly annual and couldn't be used. I was researching about a few different professional surf photographers and i found to really enjoy reading about their careers. I really hope to become someone useful in the photography industry one day because being able to see your own photo in a published magazine would be something else.

Edits in Photo shop

The past few days ive needed to catch up on a bunch of work. I was assigned this project for my digital photgraphy class and almost all of my prints didnt come out the way i wanted them to look. I started going down to the photo lab to catch up on all this work so i could have my prints finished the way i wanted them. I havent really had the chance to use a mac book until this year, im still not fimillar with them yet but im learning. While being in the photo lab this past friday i was working on burning and dodging i like this method of work in photo shop because to me it seemed some what easy to catch onto. I had success with making my prints lighter and darking in both situations my final prints came out much better. Im excited to continue working in photo shop and to learn much more about macs.

Lots of work

I started shooting my "In the air and on land" assignment this weekend as soon as i finished my other two projects for art 145. The other two assignments hopefully came out alright, I had to stay late on friday just so i could finish with all of my prints that are due tomorrow. I was told i should have at least shot my fourth assignment along with the two projects i need to turn in tommorrow this way after going over what we have done, i will have something els to work on. Tomorrow i will check all of my new photos i shot for the fourth assignment during class. Im very excited to see how they came out.

Photography

I havent done anything for any of my photography classes yet but i was hired to shoot a job today. My friends grandmas 90th birthday party was held at a catering hall. I went around and took photos of everything before people arived to show the scenery. After people started showing up I went around from table to table for group shots of everybody and the party. It was nice to capture the atmostphere of her birthday and make lasting memorys for her and her family. Im going to try and get the SD card back so i can share some of my work.
