Realistic Composite

I combined an emo kid with a lotus flower, changed a few color settings and BAM!

Cover History

Early Magazine Covers: Covers that were traditional and basic, that were really staight-forward and very consistant.



The Poster Cover: Images very focused on images as the main display, few words but detailed in portairt.



Pictures Married to Type: Images that are dedicated to the title of the work or layout; a connection must be followed in order to make this Cover true.



In the Forest of Words: Usually put on tabloids the words or sub-titles of the contents indulge the cover page Ex. Seventeen magazine

Online Vs. Print

#1 Headline "Lake makes commute shorter, sweeter"

I honestly found the print version of the article more clearer due to the "on-hand" experience i can get, I would rather read a "safe" newspaper then have to travel on the internet were "virus lurk" ready to attack your computer. Besides most kids dont have computers and what do you do about them? Printing is the best way.

#2 Headline A. "Demoncrates seek to tie funds to withdrawl, torture ban"
B. "Mukasey in as new attorney general"
C. "AT&t Foundation gives $250,000 to book festival"

A. This article was alot easier to read on print then online because I can hold the paper in my hands and read very carefully, other than the online version it's very inconvient that I must look up closely towards the screen.

B. Online version was better for the article because I was able to view clear cut photos, rather than printed out ink photos, yet it lacked clearity to the eyes of the reader.

C. Printing version I usually flip through the newspaper not in order or anything like that because I want something to come right at me...and with the online version I can't I either go to the next page or the last page, or maybe look up some search key words in the newspaper but how can I find something in the newspaper when I don't know what's even in it.

*The navigation tools were a bit borad for my taste I only have the ablity to go to the next page or go to the last page, or even look up vague words in the newspaper, when I have so idea what's even in it.

#3 Once again I found the newspaper print to be more convient because I just had to flip 2 sections of the paper and there it was "MOVIES&LIFE" right there on the front cover page. Unlike the online print I typed in "movies" into keywords and out popped a screen that said "Art 1E" etc. I had no idea what that is? So I clicked random ones seeing if I could get lucky and after 4 tries I did, I found the front cover page of the "MOVIES&LIFE"

#4 I would definatly consider PRINT because it has the "hands-on" experience which most students learn best from, and there are no complacated buttons or uploading page crisis.

What the pros are doing - Repetition in this week's photos cont.

Friday, October 5, 2007It's a Bird, It's a...Planes for Team Oracle perform over the downtown San Francisco during a practice session for San Francisco Fleet Week.

This is really good photo of repeation because it shows consistant planes in a line flying above a city who repeation is in the organization of the city itself, containing square of homes or buildings.

Friday, October 19, 2007The BluesPerformers rehearse for the opening ceremony of the 6th National City Games in Wuhan, capital of central China's Hubei province. The sporting meet will begin on Oct. 25 in Wuhan.

This photo is also another excellent example of repetition due to repeating colors, shapes of squares and the consistity of people.

Friday, October 26, 2007Doe-EyedLisa Simpson appears on television screens on a new Singapore Airlines Airbus A380 after its inaugural passenger flight from Singapore to Sydney, Australia.

This photo is an excellent source of repetition due to the repeating chairs, lisa simpson's eyes and the lights.

Negative Critique

Unfortunately my negatives are slight dirty which later on affected my enlargement. I did have some focusing issues on my last couple of shots but other than that they look GRR--REAT!!
