Ethics In Fashion Photography

Ethics In Fashion Photography 

1. They changes the length of her neck, the color of her eyes, the shape of her lips, they made her eyes bigger. Gave her a more bony, structured facial structure.

2. Length of her legs, size of her butt, made her stomach flatter, changes her skin tone, the size of het feet, how long her neck was. They even changed the size of her feet and how pointy her shoulders were.

3. They changed her whole appearance by changing her body structure completely by changing skin color, length and width or every part of her body . Going from a pizza to a woman.

4. I don't think it is ethnically acceptable to change anyone in a photo in the ways we were showed today in the three videos. It's completely false advertising and showing woman what they're supposed to look like which is these impossible, unchangeable features.

5. I think in some circumstances it could be, like if the lady had scars all over her body and they just removed it from the photo.

6. Changes that are okay is probably changing the skin ton a little, touching up some imperfections, just small un-noticeable things.

7. photojournalism is taking photos and writing about them but photography is the art of taking photos

8.

9. So that you can teach us what is right and wrong when we are photoshopping photos of our own, and how far is to far.

10. I think there are no videos of guys because it's more common to change how a women looks for appeal

Beatles Pillow Fight

1) I picked this photo because I've heard a lot about how iconic it is. Me and my dad love the Beatles so when I saw this picture as an option I knew I had to do it. I also really love how the photo looks like stages of the pillow fight and that really drew my eye to it

2) This photo was taken at he George V Hotel the night that the band found out that their song "I Want To Hold Your Hand" hit Number 1 in the US. The picture is frozen on the members John, Paul, Ringo and George in the middle of a pillow fight. It shows how much happiness was filling the room and the joy that was embraced within the four.

3) Mr. Benson the photographer talked about how he felt like this photo help the overall mood of the people in the US after John F Kennedys assassination.

Aperture

Aperture

a)We should relate our pupils to aperture and how they shrink and get bigger when exposed to light and dark

b)The smaller the aperture the darker the photo, the bigger the aperture the lighter a photo is

c)Aperture impacts Depth of Field by changing how sharp or blurred the photo is from front to back

Photo Manipulation and Ethics

Photo Manipulation and Ethics

a) A lot of what I've read has talked about how easy its gotten to manipulate or change a photo over the years. Just about anyone could manipulate a photo and make it look real and unedited. Theres a lot of photos nowadays that are edited very unethical.

b) I think the philosophy of newspapers is to have every photographer, writer and editor set with certain ground rules and guild-lines so that the newspaper (ones like The Washington Post) are seen and portrayed in a certain aesthetic.

c) It's definitely okay to manipulate a photo to certain extents and with permission of the person who's photo you want to change. If you haven't asked the person who's photo your changing or your putting a new head or new smile on that person I think you've crossed the line because thats pretty excessive for a photo.

d) I think this probably one of the most unethical, even though taking into consideration most of them are pretty bad. I think its horrible that people feel the need to change the bodies and 'flaws' off of women just to be able to put the photo up. The lady obviously looks perfectly fine in the original photo. If they had just touched up the photo it would've been fine but they slimmed her down a lot, so much they changed her whole figure.

e) I think this photo is the most ethical because they took two photos and merged them together. They didn't change the look os focus of anything and kept everyone's figure the same so I think this one is ok

Academic Shoot Reflection and Critique

Academic Shoot Reflection and Critique

1. It was kind of hard to follow the set rules we were given because there was either so much or so little going on in each classroom. So sometimes it was so chaotic and other times it was just a bore fest

2. The fact that i always had to zoom and focus photos. I always either do to much zoom or not enough. And I always over or under focus my photos.

3. I would change everything. Where I went, how i positioned the camera, just all of of. I wasn't satisfied with a single photo I took yesterday.

4. I mean I wouldn't keep anything the same, at all

5. I think I would be able to follow the rule of filling the fame much better, now that I Really understand it.

6. I think simplicity was the hardest to capture because theres a lot that goes on in school. The walls are covered in things and theres always so many students in every photo. 

7. I'm not totally clear on Lines because, I get you need lines but what kind of lines, where should they be placed, Should the lines be the whole photo or just the main subject of many subjects, does there need to be a simple background or a busy one???

1. I was trying to go for rule of thirds and the cup with the egg was supposed to be in the lower left area but it turned out to be more in the middle

2. the subject is Lila writing on her cup with the egg

3. I think it is very clear to see what the subject of this photo is

1. In this photo i didn't really go for a rule, i just wanted these two students to be the main focus

2. The subject is Lily smiling and Taj looking confused with the experiment equipment 

3. Its pretty clear when looking at my photo to see the main subject, especially Lily smiling, she really takes all main focus 

1. I wanted to go for a different way of framing. I wanted the people to kind of frame the game they were playing, but it didn't quite turn out the way I wanted 

2. The main subject is the game but you cant really tell that it is

3. I don't think people will be able to tell what the main subject 

4. I think i could have positioned the camera to where the photo is mainly the game with a lower shot of the people playing it

1. I went for rule of thirds and i think it came out pretty good to me

2. The main subject is Parker playing the game in science

3. I think it is very clear to see what he main subject is to someone who had to guess what it was
