Architecture shoot preview assignment
 |
| SURROUNDINGS i chose this pic because its got a really cool tone and creepy trees witch gives it a cool vibe but with out the trees it would just be a boring building. |
 |
| ANGLES AND SHAPES i chose this pic because it has a really cool allusion going on the way that the hall way was built makes it have cool angles. |
 | |
| PATTERNS I chose this for patterns because its a really good patter and because i like black and white photos. |
 | |
| LIGHT |
i chose this one for light because without the light in this picture it would just be a dark blob so it really gives that cool effect. | |||

Warm-up and assignment for today-p1
 |
| this also showed me what a hard time it must have been for the elderly to get out fast when this was happening. this photographer uses alot of balance and leading lines and some mergers |
 |
| this picture made me think about how not just humans but animals were also affected in this tragedy and that they lost their homes to. this photographer used some mergers and balance in this photo |
 |
| this makes me think about how devastating and power full this was and how nature can just destroy whatever it wants. i think this photographer used alot of leading lines and nice framing. |

TOUCHING PEOPLE
1. What do you think about this project and photo essay?
a. i think that it is probably very uncomfortable for the people in it and that its very creative.
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?
a. i would probably do it, its kinda a cool experience in a way i guess you just have to be willing to understand.
3. Think of an unusual photo shoot similar to this one that you think would be fun to go and shoot.
a. i think a human sculpture photo shoot would be pretty cool to go to because the person has to sit for along time.
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?
a. he did use a lot of the rules such as leading lines rule of thirds but most of all he used balance that is the kind of pics he took.

Portrait and self-portrait tips and ideas
 |
| i like this one because its a skate park thats looks like a little town. its pretty big and it just looks like its apart of the land not like it was just made there. |
 |
| i like this one because its interesting how a tree can grow into a rock. it kind of looks like a bands album cover |
 |
| i like this one because it shows p rod in his moment its a pretty sick pic. |
 |
| i like this one because its one of my favorite drummers holding another one of my favorite drummers ride cymbals and it shows his drums its got a good background. |
 |
| i like this one because it looks like some old man who just got high and is just hungry. |
 | |||||||||||
| i like this one because it really catches him in his element and he just doin wat he knows singing. |
MY PLAN FOR THE SHOOT.
i think i will probably shoot with andy and hopefully it will work out. im gonna try and get a good shot out in the court yard some where. and im gonna try and make it succsesful by getting a good background and making it look professional.

Welcome back!!!!
 |
| What are you looking forward to in 2011? all the concerts i will go to and actually play at. |
 |
| . What are your resolutions for the 2011 year? is to get better at the drums |
 |
| 1. Tell me what is the one thing that happened on your holiday that you will remember? It can be a trip, a family visit, a present, something fun. the thing i will remeber is all the sleep i got i slept to 2 every day. |
 |
| I think Jimmy THE REV Sullivan was the most important person of 2010 because he died four days before 2010 on the 28th of december and his band avenged sevenfold took it really hard and spent this whole past year rembering there brother. they even put out there fith album in honor of the rev. he is also one of my favorite drummers. |
 |
| Well the best new is when i read in the austin chronical that bullet for my valentine was coming to stubbs. this was awsome they are my favorite metal core band. i was just so happy that i got to actually go with my friend asherya it was a good time. |
 |
| i would have to say the best movie was cop out because Tracy Morgan is one of my favorite actors. and because i like action comedys . it was just an all around good movie that made you laugh alot. |
 |
| i think escape the fates prepare your weapons was the best song of 2010 because it has alot of power. its starts of strong and then it just starts to groove. it was just a song were you listened and just sat there and said damn this is good. |
 |
| i choose this one because aerosmith was one of the very first bands i ever listened to. |
 |
| I like this one because im like a bear and sleeping and being lazy is pretty much on of my favorite things. |
 |
| So i like this pic because its catching the storm at the perfect moment. |
