JR questions??? cont.

Q. How does location and context change the way we perceive and understand photographs?
              - context and location can do a lot to a photograph, for instance if there is just a portrait from a civilian in haiti that alone if pretty powerful but if you add a caption like "change" or "help" and place it in times square its going to attract a much bigger audience because the portrait is now outspoken and captures the eye of the viewer 




Q. What can you take from JR's photographs to make your images stronger? How might your pictures become more impactful?
               - the biggest thing i took from JR's photographs is location location location. It showed how much location portrays to an images success. i think my images need to have more of a meaning, as if it meant something to everyone that looks at it.

JR questions???

Q. how can a photograph become more than just an "image"?
           - to me it has to be a personal issue, any ordinary photograph can become a  movement to a person. all it has to do is have a special value to someone, something like a new army recruit stumbles across a picture of his father from vietnam smiling with his buddies in a trench and that alone can get him through the war.


Q.What affect does size or scale have on the power of a photograph?
           - size and scale  can have an enormous change of a photograph. for example the pictures that you showed us at the beginning of class are powerful by themselves but adding the size that he did made it a movement and made it so much more powerful.


~more questions coming tomorrow or later on in the week!!!~

Depth of Field Cont.

My inspiration for this project was something a little more simple. i wanted to do something along the lines of a "hero and sidekick" theme, with out one of the subjects in the photo the other wouldn't be able to perform it's duties.

"Cat and Mouse"
"The condiments of all condiments" 
"IT'S PEANUT BUTTER JELLAY TIME!"
