Documentary photography

In “The Blue Marble” composed by Gregory Petsko, the writing focuses on images that were captured by accident and how these images later on became iconic. These iconic images are moments in time that impact and shape the culture and society of which we live in. There moments in your own personal life that shape and define who you are as a person and who you will be in the future. You may not realize just how impactful they were until you look back on them, just how the images that turned out to…

OpDoc and Documentary Filmmaking Assessment: In looking at all ten of these OpDocs, it is clear that each filmmaker is intent on depicting the people and places featured in a specific way, but each uses different techniques to achieve a similar goal. OpDocs are different than general documentaries because they focus in on getting the audience to feel a specific way about a given issue.

Documentaries are different from movies in the fact that they work to inform the public of facts instead of entertaining them. An example of this is the Oscar winning documentary A Murder on a Sunday Morning. The documentary talks about how a woman was shot and killed on a Sunday morning and a young black male was arrested and how the defense builds a case that frees the wrongly convicted man. The documentary mainly talks racism, the imperfections of the police system, and the injustice in said…

Photography isn’t just being able to take a pretty picture. There are a lot of factors to think about when it comes to taking a picture. The most important thing to me when it comes to photography is when a picture tells a story. One photographer that I think tells amazing stories through her photographs is Margaret Bourke-White. Margaret was a photographer in the 1920’s. When Margaret was in college she did not dream about being a photographer she dreamed about being a Herpetologist. She once…

always be in her own fantasy world, and that photography became a way of growing up for her, a way to face reality. There is always a curtain playfulness in her images, that shows the young child in her. Even the first years of her life, when she lived in Africa with her father, grew the fascination and the desire to photograph black body shapes. Most of Sassens work represent a happy, colourful and playful…

Professor Zig Jackson once said, “A camera is a very powerful tool.” Photography is the way in which you express something and show it to world. People see a camera just as a tool to take pictures, but cameras go beyond taking pictures, it puts into image what can’t be described in words.
