Magazine Tips

1.) Simple can be better:
a simple magazine cover can make it stand out from the clutter.

2.) Keep the magazine clean with covers because no one wants a soiled copy.

3.) Go to the local drugstore or bookstore, and sneak your upcoming issue in among the other magazines on the racks.

4.) If the cover pops out from its background, don’t weaken it by fussing with it. 

5.) If it is invisible like wallpaper, decide what element is worthy of becoming dominant.

1. What manipulations to the camera will you need to make to create an HDR image? You have to change the ISO between each shot. 2. What equipment will we use to take this type of image? You will just need a tripod for this shoot. 3. What is the reason someone might take an HDR image? HDR is good for landscapes and capturing the contrasts in the photo. 4.

Merger Preview

1. Is there something you see in the photo above that you think could be a problem when you take your photos? Look carefully. Shadows would definitely be an issue and just different lighting in different layers. 2. Where do you think would be a great place to take this type of picture here on the Bowie campus? By the roses would be an interesting place to do it as there are many different places to pose/do. 3. Can you think of something creative to actually DO in the photo when you take yours? I could be smelling the rose, jumping over myself from the bench in the garden, or getting closer or farther from the camera. 4. Is there something you could wear that would help you when you do this photo? I don't really think clothing would affect anything but it might look cool if you coordinated your outfit with your surroundings.

self portrait assignment

Image
-Alter Your Perspective -Break the Rules of Composition -Experiment with Lighting Environmental Portraits: I really like both of these images because they create a realistic image of what is happening in the different settings. Self Portraits: I really liked these two images because they capture the subject of the photo in such unique ways. Casual Portraits: These photos do a good job of clearly showing someones everyday appearance *casually*. For my self portraits, I would make sure to be in an environment that I commonly use to show a little bit of my personal life in the photograph. I would also create good lighting in the room/space to shoot a clear and bright photo.
