Triptych 1


Day-12

What is the title of your triptych series for the gallery show on Saturday?

The title of my triptych series for the gallery show on saturday is called Glamorous. The reason I named it that is because I took three pictures of a painting of a model type young woman. It's black and white and kind of looks like pencil sketches. The different poses and different views of the pictures make them glamorous. So, Glamorous is the name of my triptych.

Day-11

How much do you want to sell your photos for? Would you sell one of the images from the triptyich, or are they only for sale as a set?

I would want to sell my photos for five dollars each. I mean if somebody wanted to buy just one picture from my triptych then I would sell it to them. But I would also sell as a set too. Maybe the one picture can be less than the whole set. And I would make a special package with all of my pictures.

Day-10

The session is almost over! What assignments do you have left to complete, and what is your plan to finish them on time?

The only assignments I have left are the final project and the triptych. My plan to finish them on time is to start and finish the final project today, and start on the triptych so that by tomarro it can get finished. I think I'm doing a collage for my final project. That should be easy and creative enough to get a good grade. Hopefully! Or I can switch that around and do the triptych first, then do the final project, whatever works.

Final Project Proposal

For my final project proposal, I'm thinking about doing a collage. Maybe of all the pictures I ever took in this class. Every time we had to take twenty pictures of random things, I think it'll work out. I can't really think of anything else to do. I mean I can make some more buttons, I can make a thousand buttons if I really wanted to. Maybe some ideas will pop up but most likely you will see a collage.

Day-9

List 5 ideas you could do for your photo triptych. Remember that you must do this on your own time. It is a graded assignment due December 17.

Well, I was thinking I could do something in black and white. Or even have three pictures of black and red objects. Also, my pictures could have the same backround and different things in front of that backround. I might take pictures of the same thing from different angles just like in one of out clas assingnments. I could also take three of the exact same pictures and just trick them out in photoshop.

Day-8

Why are you late?
Please explain yourself.

The first reason y im late is because I woke up a little late. Then, I had to run to the bus stop but i was stuck at the crosswalk and the light wouldn't change so the bus flew by me. So I caught the next one. After that, I seen the 134 at the Burien Transit Center and I was still on the other bus. Then The 134 left before my bus got to the Transit. So since the next 134 didn't come for another hour, I waited for the 131 that came in ten minutes. But that bus goes on 1st avenue, so i had to walk to school from 122nd street and 1st avenue. And that's exactly why I'm late!

My Collage


Day-7

How many ways can you think of to take different photos of the same object? Explain your answers.

Well first, you can take a picture of the front of the object. You can flip the object upside down and take two pictures, the front and the back. The object can change its location or backround, for example, put the object on the beach, on the table, on the playground, ect. You can take a picture in certain lighting with or without the flash. You can take multiple pictures or different people holding the same object. There's many ways you can tak photo's of the same object. Explore your mind!

Day-6

What questions do you still have about lighting for portraits? What else would you like to learn? On a scale of 1-5, with 5 being super excited, how much are you looking forward to using the studio?

How exactly do you do the lighting for the portraits the correct way? What if theres no main backround? Why do we use lighting if the camera has a flash? I would like to learn all the fun things about photography. I'll be real honest about my scale number for looking foward to using the studio. I rate it about maybe a three.

Day-5

Every student in this class must complete learning log activities. This will be counted as an assignment grade. Your assignment is to create 3 images to be printed, framed, and exhibited at a public art show. The show will be the evening of December 19 at Big Al's Brewery in White Center. Big Al's is open to all ages. Attendance at the show is voluntary. More information about the assignment will be posted soon.-Your journal assignment for today: Are you interested in attending this event?

Honestly, I'm not interested in attending ths event. It's not that I don't want to but I dont have time for it. Basketball and school takes up my whole life. Seems like i dont have time for anything else. I leve the house at 7:15 a.m. and don't get back till 9. So I doubt I would attend Big Al's.

Day-4

We are going to set up a studio to take portraits of each other. Write a description of what you think it should be like-describe the background and any props you think we should have, as well as any other ideas you can come up with!

Well, I think that everyone should choose there two favorite colors for their backround. Why? Because I think two colors blended together looks interesting in a backround of a portait. Or we can choose clouds, lightning, fire, anything that we want to put in the backround. Everyone should choose their own backround to show their personality. But you know me on the other hand, I might come up and have red, black and gray in my backround, or red lightning. But that's just me and my thoughts, straight up.

Day-3

What do you like best about Photoshop? What do you like the least about Photoshop?

What I liked best about Photoshop was that I can change the colors of my original pictures. Also, I liked how I can change the texture of a picture and make it look like a painting or cartoon. What I liked least about Photoshop is that it's difficult to figure out everything. Photoshop can do all types of stuff but it's hard to learn to find all the different things that it can do. But it's okay, it's not that bad.

Day 2

Happy December! Did you know Mrs. Magyar's birthday is in only 5 more days? What was the most frustrating thing about yesterday's class? How did you deal with it, and how could you deal with it differently?

No, i didn't know that Mrs. Magyer's birthday is in only five days. The most frustrating thing about yesterday's class was trying to get comfortable with the class work. I think I did very well in dealing with the situation. I sat there and did what was asked of me. I don't think i would have dealt with it differently seeing the fact that I did a good job.
