Caption and evaluation practice

Mask figure gone bizzare

Monica running away from LAPD with a bottle of fire in her hands and a mask over her face in the streets of LA. Monday after-noon going through a festival for kids , to distract and send a message out.

This photo uses symmetry and patterns because of the shape of the lamps and where there all at. Also uses depth because the lamps get smaller and smaller.

This photo is using cropping to get a close up on there face

This photo uses leading lines, background, viewpoint. It uses leading lines by the two roads in the middle of the picture and to both sides of photo. It uses background because you can see the mountains in the very back with the horizon on the top. Uses viewpoint cause also shows all these elements in the picture cause it was taken at a high elvation.

yearbook spread finish

sports/action

Nick Adam:
stories
Its hard to tell what the picture is saying without a caption, the photos don't have a meaning, 
The judges kind of favored how the person tried to do a close framing
The person had some amazing pictures but several of them had no meaning to the photo.

Carlos Delgado
sports
 They didnt know how he arranged his photos in his gallery and also had a lot of feeling.
 I like how his photos had tons of feelings and made me down.
Also alot about old people


Dustin Snipes
Sports
They liked how he started off strong and then finished strong, they liked his picture, also like how he put an amazing effort to it.
They like how the pictures are very perfectly framed,
The person had some very strong action sport pictures, but not so much of anything else

touching people

I really like this project. I like it because its different but in a good way.
If someone approached me with this at first I would be confused but I'll ask him more about the reason behind it then do it.
It would be cool to do something like this at akins or something like girls switch spots with guys that would be funny.
The photographer used alot of framing in his photos and in some of them he used depth.

magazine cover

magazine covers

The earliest magazines date back to the early 1700s  and are far different than the magazines we see today. Most of the Early Magazine covers only included a tittle and table of context. The early magazines were not to open to what was inside just by looking at the cover they put not many photos or indication on the cover of what was inside until the early 1800s were more art and indication was added to magazines.

The Poster cover   Poster covers are covers with photo graphs or drawings that need no words to describe the photo. The only things that are on the cover is the photo and the tittle of the magazine. In a poster the cover the image is not covered by the logo or is not covering it. Most of the covers have images that are over sized.

Pictures married to type

Pictures married to type covers are usually an image covering or being covered by the tittle of the magazine. These types of covers began to be seen with cover lines witch are captions on the side of the magazine witch call the viewer's attention more that the photo or tittle

In The Forest Of Words

For the most magazine at the turn of the 21st century. Some covers of this period contain cover lines larger than the name of the magazine. Powerful pictures are alot to these magazine expossed of half naked girls, or other stuff thats powerful.

happy building and akins

i dont think this excellent work but this goes with the theme of building due to the signs in the school that have or directory where to go.

this excellent work of both jordan signs on the Air Jordan Retro 5's, This goes with happy cause to some people jordans make them happy depending on the which shoes that is coming out.

This is not excellent work but goes with the word of theme for akins because it has akins in it and its a picture of the front building .

choice sheet

I would like to take yearbook 3 next year. Reason why is i love handling cameras and making them look good and neat. My mom use to do this when she was older so she kinda encourage me to continue what she did. Also i love taking sport pictures in action or not in action, also ive learned alot from taking pictures like doing the iso shutter speed and etc. So hopefully yearbook will be cool !

my holiday

1. One thing from my holiday that i will remember is getting the new air jordan concord 11's from barton creek mall at 4a.m on december 23. also i will remember that i got to see is my great grandma from el paso im glad i saw her cause she passed away last night

2. I dont really have any resloutions for 2012 to do.

3. im looking for to school ending hahaha, but im really looking forward to this years baseball season!

bes of 2011

This was the best 2011 sport event the super bowl.
Even though my team lost they put up a fight.
Also this was the most injuries in a superbowl ever.

I think this is the most important person of 2011 cause she is our presidents wife.
The first lady has made alot of impact to our world helping kids and such.
She also runs a group to help kids face fears and childhood bully

I think this was the top 2011 news story ever due to 9/11 we finally killed the dude behind it.
Bin laden deserved dying for what he did to our citizens and to our country.
Also killing him ended war in iraq.

I think this is the best movie of 2011 due to him continuing the series of mission impossible.
All the other ones have been a big success also make alot of box money.
Also this has alot alot more action then the others

adele was a break out artist this year with all of her new singles to form a great album.
some of her songs like someone like you , rolling in the deep are the top songs of hers.
someone like you made it up there cause it was a love song about her relationship.
several months after this song droped she came out with rolling in the deep break up song.

best of 2011
