Final journal











 

 

 

 






 

 
Last Picture With a Cheetah:
 
I decided to name my project "nature and how people affect it". In my opinion it is a very important topic nowadays, because we need to breathe and breathe clean. Also, this topic is important because we are killing he animals by cutting down the trees and holding the water in the dams and drying it out. People pollute a lot without realizing how it will affect the environment. I took some pictures to show how beautiful nature is and what we are doing to it in order to have more space. What should happen to humanity so they would understand that they need trees to survive.

Final Group Project (Diana, Ashley, Jessica, Dan, Tony)

Our project is based on the point of view of a college student. The process of this project was taking photos that represented the typical college life, editing them, and choosing an order to put them in so the project has a nice flow to it. Our first photo is multi framed. It is a sequence of a college student starting to study. The photo also consists of framing of the image, point of view, shape, movement and line. The second photo represents Life and Death . To a student getting a good grade on an exam is everything and getting a bad grade is like death. This also has framing of the image and emphasis,. The third photo moves on to what a college student do in their free time. On nice days a lot of students like to throw a football around. It is a symbol for an American lifestyle because football is a great representative of what American like to do. It also  has shape, color, and space. The next photo is a metaphor for "Party Animal". To represent this metaphor we used stuffed animal surrounded by alcohol. It also has texture, color, shape, and variety. Our final picture is of a girl "coming out of the closet". It is a double entendre. College is a time when a lot of people realize who they are and aren't afraid to hide it so that is why we decided to use it for our double entendre.

Dan: Dan was very kind to bring the dog for our first idea, and even though it didn't work out, he was helping us out with ideas and he did a good job.
Tony: Tony was our model for photos as well as Jessica. He was making our project easy to work with by making everybody laugh. He also helping with ideas after our original didn't work out.
