American Soldier slideshow and captions

i Think this is the most powerful photo  because it looks like the guy in the middle has came back home from iraq and he is greeting his family members.

 

 The sequence of photo has emotion with the action. There is a lot happening in the photo's which makes them more interesting to look at. 

They work together because it goes in order by different pictures to tell whats going on.         

Funny Captions

There are other kids in the background wishing they could do the dunk like him.

Back in 1995 this boy named henry was very angry at the moment, because his mother didnt give him a snack.They took a picture of this madness,the background just a close up on this angry little 1 year old baby!

Marlboro Marine

A. Luis Sinco used skills in the video by using photography, that connected to what the narrator was saying. I liked how they used different pictures for the subject he was saying. 

B. The main multimedia effects that were in the video was that it had sad music in the background that made you feel more in to the concept of the video.

A. The most powerful image was the war photo when he had all the cuts on his face and he was all dirty because it  makes you  kinda feel like what the man went through  during that time period.

B.  The most powerful sequence was when he rode his bike onto a mountain and was going ride it off the top of the mountain, then he closed his eyes, then everything blacked out.

C. The audio makes the photos better because some of the music was kind of sad so it made the video better. And it didn't make the video all boring.


D. The images worked together to tell this story because every time he was saying something specific it would have an image to go along with the narration.

Contests Preview, Show And Tell

 FALL 2002

This photo is powerful because, it show the ball handler going up for the layup while the defense is trying to defend his move. The content in the photo is a 5 on 5 basketball game being played and a player is attempting a layup/dunk. The lighting in this photo is pretty good, you cant really tell cause the image is black and white. The composition in this photo.  The exposure in this photo is that there is no blurs it is pretty clear, and you can see everything the photo is displaying.

I chose this photo because it shows downtown austin texas, after it just got done raining.

It shows the buildings,sky, & and rainbow clearly.

Great Black and White Photographers Part 3

The first thing that caught my eye when i saw this photo was the man playing the piano. It reminded me of ray Charles. I chose these pictures because it catches the people/person off guard while there doing something.
I See a man playing the piano while smoking a cigarette, it also looks like he playing after hours at a bar or restaurant. 
I Smell smoke from the burning cigarette in the mans mouth and the hamburgers being cooked in the kitchen .
I Hear the different piano keys the man is playing at a bar. 
I Taste the smoke coming from his cigarette, and the non fresh air in the restaurant.   
I Feel the piano keys.

 The first thing that caught my eye about this photo was the duck on the table, then the second thing was the man sitting on the couch. I like Arnold newman's photo's cause they are different and usually have a man in the photo.
I See a man just chilling on the couch with his leg up possibly watching t.v or just staring off into space.
I Smell the grilled cheese sandwiches his wife is fixing for the entire family.
I Hear the mans kids running around and yelling in there room's.
I Taste the grilled chesse sandwiches the wife made and they were deicious.
I Feel the playstation 3 controller the man is about to pick up and play call of duty online.
