Capture What You Have Learned

Zone Focus- Focusing on one area where you know is in action spot and wait for there to be action for your to shoot.

Shutter Speed- 1/300 and Above. Unless you plan on panning

Panning- Shooting and a low shutter speed and keeping your subject in the same line of focus.

Waiting For the Pause- waiting for the athlete to pause. In every game there is a time when the subject pauses their motion

Listen To What the Judges Have to Say

Part I


1.

Portfolio 1

Photographer: Alyssa Schukar
General Focus: Photojournalism
Three Problems: All the photo's were at a certain distance, there weren't enough strong singles, and it was sort of a "dark take"
Two Likes: The legs in the photo of a hurdler, and the photo of the kids in the stairway.
Overall Impression: I thought it didn't catch my attention enough. I didn't like the photo of the two girls hugging. You can capture that any where.

Portfolio 2

Photograper: Nick Adams
General Focus: Sports
Three Problems: The headless cheerleader in the cheerleading photo, pictures of kids it wasn't original, and the photo of the fire was nothing new.
Two Likes: The cheerleading photo was original and the football photo all four corners were filled.
Overall Impression: I didn't like how the frames his photos and how there were alot of photos with someones head cut off.

Portfolio 3

Photograper: Jordan Murph
General Focus: Sports
Three Dislikes: There were to photo's with the exact same color and point of view, needs to expand, and the photo of the man sleeping did not belong.
Two Likes: "good solid" Volleyball photo, found a good unique moment inside something seen 1000 times.
Overall Impression: He started off great with his singles but once he started his stories it didn't seem all that great. I really like the photo of the swimmer, the bubbles were unique.

Portfolio 4

Photograper: Melissa Golden
General Focus: Stories
Three dislikes: Out of focus, Motion blur, Seen the story
Two Likes: Nice portrait
Overall Impression: I think it wasn't creative enough and I really liked the portrait of the old man.

1)Good composition
2)Creative
3)He gets right in there
b) I think he is good at finding real creative moments and he is right in the action although one of his swimming pictures had the same tone as the football photo.
