smart phone app

Quick write #9
My app would be that you can design your own clothes and the once your done it would magically appear at your house . my app would only cost $5 because i don't want my things to cost so much.

Purpose to Photography: Africa and Mural Project Preview

 Africa

My reaction to this power point was that it has beautiful photos of these amazing animals. The reason why this is my reaction to this power point was that is because the photos look really good i really like how they came out. this photographer really got good angles and really got a good side of their nature which i personally think that was a really nice touch to it.

The reason i choose this photo was because i like how the nature part came out it was really nice. Not to mention that the animals came out fantastic in this picture. i really got inspired by this photographer named nick brandt .
The reason why this is my favorite photo form this photographer is because of how it came out for example the trees came out beautiful . Also the giraffe came out perfect i like how this picture has that type of out of balanced but at the same time its like in balanced it just depends on how you see it.

The type of rules of photography that apply this photo is the rule of third because if you cut it in to thirds the giraffe will not be in the middle of this picture. Also the frame is another rule that apply's to this picture because the trees are framing the giraffe.

The type of camera that he used was a  Pentax 67II with only two fixed lenses.
These were his exactly words "To me, every creature, human or nonhuman, has an equal right to live, and this feeling, this belief that every animal and I are equal, affects me every time I frame an animal in my camera" that's his reason.
His hopes on this was to let people know that animals also deserve respect and care for like us humans do to.
"You wouldn't take a portrait of a human being from a hundred feet away and expect to capture their spirit; you'd move in close."

Mural Project Preview

1. What theme could you use here at school to make your own mural that tells a unique Akins story? Be specific. Explain what subjects you will include in your mural.
well my theme for akins mural would be anything that can be related to the subjects here in this high school .

2. Why is this theme worth devoting time time and effort to capture? Why would other students care about this theme?
this theme would be some thing to developed time in because it would make our school look more intellectual knowing that we have very good opportunity, well better than the other school because we want us as a school to be known for our good qualities.   

3. What are the advantages and disadvantages to using a phone camera to do this project?

some advantages for this project but using our phones for it will be that its easier to take the picture right away.Also that its less work to focus it than a camera. disadvantages are that you cant really do any cool effects to the pictures your taking unless you have a special app on your phone 

4. What are the advantages and disadvantages to using an SLR camera to do this project?

advantages are that you can make really cool effects on the picture your taking. disadvantages are that i would take to long to be able and focus the camera.


5. Should we use phones or SLR cameras for this project? Why?
i think we should be able to use both our phones and cameras because its always good to have a choice. that's what i think in all honestly
