Final Exam review

Rules of Photography

1. Rule of thirds- this is were you put the focus of your picture to the top left, bottom left, or top right, bottom left.
2. Balancing elements- making a picture symmetrical 
3. Leading lines- lines that lead to the main topic of the picture 
4. Symmetry and patterns- creating patterns in  your picture t enhance the topic 
5. Viewpoint- placing your self in  good position to get the hole picture.
6. Background- making sure your background is not distracting 
7. Create death- positioning your camera so that it looks like you could really walk into the picuture.
8. Framing-making your hole picture fit into an area that is symmetrical and not having anything sick out into the non-visible part of your picture.
9. Cropping- sitting your picture appropriately so it enhances the picture and not so that it takes things away.
10. Mergers and avoiding them- not having different things in you picture come together making the focal point of the picture confusing.

Fashion Photography

1.  They got ride of marks such as pimples, made the neck smaller, made the eyes bigger, they made her hair curly and they made it bigger, the made her jaw line more pronounced and finally they made her neck longer.

Questions:

1. No because it make people in todays world want to look like that person but they can't because its not fiscally possible.
2.  No its just all wrong everyones beautiful in there own way but sadly our society has made it were you have to be skinny or tan or what ever that makes you "beautiful" to be excepted in society.
3. I think make up is ok but personally implants and photoshop are both just wrong I just want people to be happy with them selfs.
4. Fashion photography is aimed towards making people "beautiful" while photojournalism is aimed toward telling a story.
5. Photography is most of the time closely related to reality and it captures a moment in time or something we are presenting; however it can be distorted and changed by photoshop or other editing programs 
6. I think you showed us these videos because your want us to realize that not everything you see is true and to make us realize that companies will do anything to make there product more appealing.
7. I think the reason that there are no videos of companies photoshopping men to look better is because is society women use products to "make them look prettier" and because if guys are imperfect then it just adds to there carter and its still socially acceptable but for women to be "imperfect" is not ok and there life should be there whole world witch is just wrong.
