Final Photojournalism

 

Self-Defined Final Project - My Reflections of Photojournalism Class



 How well you feel that you met your stated requirements.

The professor suggested a deviation from my plan to use my photography to represent my storytelling structure. I utilized Premier Pro and made a narrative video presentation. I chose images corresponding to the overall impressions and emotional experience I felt I would take away from photojournalism class. I featured images reflecting my journey as a photographer, how I have improved, and demonstrating my passions. I felt my video represents my reflections and how the class impacted me.

I chose not to do music. Instead, I began with an introduction and ended with a quote, as these were more impactful. Additionally, I did better with the volume of this  narrative than during my midterm.

Overall, I am very happy with how my final turned out.

What Photojournalism means to me

Image
  Photo by  Anuar Patjane Floriuk To me, photojournalism means studying captured art through the lens, the natural beauty of the world, and the ability to capture moments in time. I chose this picture because of the dramatic and fascinating moment of time it has captured. Seeing the huge whale reminds me of the beauty of the ocean and how we are destroying it. I think the ocean is a good example of the diversity of subjects photojournalism can capture.

M5 Photo Art Assessing Photography

Photo by: Photochrom image of Piccadilly Circus – no listed photographer (Londonist). Image Address : https://assets.londonist.com/uploads/2022/03/i730/piccadilly_circus__london__england.jpg Image Source : https://londonist.com/london/art-and-photography/early-colour-photographs-london-1900 Year Created: 1900 Principle #1: Depth of Field: This photograph is a good example of depth you can see far down the street. The roads allow for depth of field as the colors get darker, giving the image a greater sense of distance with the contrast. Additionally, the further the background goes back, the less focus the area has, which adds to the depth. Principle #2: Rule of Thirds: I also think the rule of thirds is displayed as the green statue in the middle of the road is on the line. The statue's positioning and the point on top of the statue is at an intersect point which draws your eyes to the statue. This gives focus and balance to the picture while providing interest...

Photojournalism and Bias

" Going Home ", Photo by Ed Clark  B:  I see a man playing an accordion, he appears to be in a military uniform and at some social gathering that may be a funeral. It appears that he is crying as he plays, and the people in the background look upset. Also, I think he may be a naval officer, as his uniform resembles what sailors wear with an anchor on his hat. This image means to me mourning a death, a somber celebration. In the blog “ A Struggle For Democracy Part 1” by Shahidual Alam speaks about how photos can capture “personal stories”. Alam explains that images can be a documentation of “socio-political phenomenon.” History might not tell how much people care about the death of someone, but a photo can capture it. President Franklin D. Roosevelt was beloved. This photo tells me that this is something I did not learn in history class, I learned about what Roosevelt did for his country as President but not how the people felt about him. C: Looking at “Going Home,” I feel t...
