Currie argues that a process of subconscious remediation occurs in film, between reality and illusion, the outcome of which is an understanding that the images on screen are captured and manipulated.7 Braking a film up into still images and examining a single shot “blurs the boundar[ies]” to the extent where the illusionistic element is lost and the image becomes like a photograph, embodying the ‘window on the world’ ideology.8 Outside of cinema, art films provide another complication. The…

It was taken almost 20 years ago with what is now a very old-fashioned instant camera. There are also some images that I kept from an old calendar all over my room, mostly beach pictures. I absolutely love the beach. I love the sunsets and sunrises, the waves and the birds. I think it is very interesting how angles, symmetry, and lighting can make a huge difference…

There are such a variety of things that value of planning before your big day. Since I'm a picture taker, I'd get a kick out of the chance to share a few contemplations from a photographic artist's view and cover this subject in a few sub-points. 1. Step by step instructions to pick your picture taker. See past work. The principal thing that strikes a chord while picking a picture taker is to view his/her past works.

Photography has been acknowledged to constitute a universal tool of communication. Its peculiarity lies in its capacity to communicate artistically in a manner that would be difficult to convey using words. In particular, photographic compositions have assumed a central place in communicating messages historically and in the contemporary period. This paper seeks to analyze the “The Professional Photographer: his work-his tools” poster that Jan Tschichild designed in 1938. The paper will develop…

published his Book of Optics in 1021 AD. He produced the first pinhole camera after observing how light travelled through a window shutter. He realized that smaller holes would create sharper images. He is also credited with inventing the first camera obscura. Camera obscura uses a pinhole or lens to project an image of the actual scene upside down onto a viewing surface. Camera obscura lead into the development of the first photographic camera. Pinhole cameras like the Camera…

In most cases people would assume that a portrait is nothing more than a face. However, Annie Leibovitz often includes more information in the photograph. Some of her portraits give insights into the celebrity’s life while others do not. The formal and posed, portraits often remind us of a person’s well-known character, while the informal portraits rely on other information like environments in order to portray the person’s personality or lifestyle. In the same aspect, some of the portraits also…

Analysis of Two Photographers By Philip Langlois wolfjpl@gmail.com Date Due: 03/11/15 The history of photography can be traced back to the camera obscura which is a box with a pinhole through which light travels and reflects off a mirror showing the image.

Amongst the variety of selective works from our readings, my attention was particularly drawn to the work of Jeff Thomas. The piece titled, “Culture Revolution” left a key interest in where my attention was drawn. The photograph brings a tense feeling and draws the viewer’s attention to the details amongst the figure in it. When looking at the photograph, there is a sense of wonder to it. Jeff Thomas gives his audience a way to wonder what the meaning behind the photo is; while it seems as if…

words that they should in their images. The different broadcasting forms have corrupted the perception of beauty into something surreal, incredible, and, very often, unhealthy. It is no secret that beauty standards portrayed in pictures from magazines, and other similar mediums, make adolescent girls vulnerable to these false representations of beauty early in their age. Beauty fabrications are beginning to face an increasing opposition that is often expressed with images that depict their…
