Photography – Portfolio

Photography is something I have always liked to do in my free time. I always pick stuff that inspires me and it varies from theme to subject matter, and over all presentation. I have always loved shooting outside and something I use a lot is greenery. Photography is something that I will try to keep with me throughout my lifetime.

 

The first project was Tech Zone. My favorite photo from it is the jeep that is frozen in till. The stillness of the piece just stands out to me.

Next is typology. For this one I was inspired by an example of cupcakes so I chose donuts! I loved the final product, apart from some lighting differences.

Next Historical photo. We had to find a photo and recreate it.

Next Natural light photos. I had lots of hun shooting these photos as I used my softball team for it!

Next Studio light portraits. This image was recreated by me using a professionals template.

Next is avatar. This one I took a picture of my friend and turned it into avatar.

And the final project Pick 3. Where you pick 3 themes and take to pictures for each theme. This specific one was a self portrait.

1984 Documentary- “Who’s watching us now?”

In our documentary “Who is watching us now?” we decided to focus on the question of, how does the concept of “Big Brother” relate to a technological in modern-day society? This documentary is an expository documentary because we are explaining about how modern-day media relates to 1984’s Big Brother. For all the editing Coral used FilmForth and Audacity for the sound. Katelyn filmed the footage and narrated the documentary. We really enjoyed the process of making the documentary and it gave us a chance to work with new people. I would like to do something like this again in the future.

1984 Setting

Physical Quotes

  • “Their windows patched with cardboard and their roofs with corrugated iron, their crazy 1984 garden walls sagging in all directions? And the bombed sites where the plaster dust swirled in the air” (page 5-6)
  • He was in a narrow street, with a few dark little shops, interspersed among dwelling-houses. (pg. 118)
  • “An old, closebitten pasture, with a foot- path wandering across it and a molehill here and there. In the ragged hedge on the opposite side the boughs of the elm trees swayed just perceptibly in the breeze, and their leaves stirred faintly in dense masses like women’s hair.” (Page 155)

Emotional Quotes

  • “A kilometre away the Ministry of Truth, his place of work, towered vast and white above the grimy landscape.” (Page 5)
  • Winston picked his way up the lane through dappled light and shade, stepping out into pools of gold wherever the boughs parted. Under the trees to the left of him the ground was misty with bluebells. (Page 148)
  • “It struck him that the truly characteristic thing about modern life was not its cruelty and insecurity, but simply its bareness, its dinginess, its listlessness.” (P.141)

Recognizing a Dystopian Society – “Model Citizens”

Dystopia is a futuristic, imaged universe with the illusion of a perfect society. A dystopian society uses propaganda to control the citizens of the society. With a front man who is worshiped by the society. With everyone under 24-hour surveillance. Where no one feels safe anywhere at any time. Every citizen is the same with no uniqueness or individuality. An example is the Hunger Games. The Hunger Games is a well-known movie series that deals with a frightening world controlled by a totalitarian government that limits the right of its citizens. There is also The 100 a TV series based on a world that had been destroyed. In the short film “Model Citizens” by Dead Sound we see a dystopian society. The people we see in the film have nothing that defines them. They are also fine with just with being killed after they fulfilled their job of raising a model citizen, this is propaganda they are convinced they only have one purpose in live and that’s all they need.
