Week 7

So, one of my favorite things to watch, when I am not at my parent's house, is anime. Now I'm not talking about the waifu bait, or any of the weird shit. I'm talking about Bleach, One Piece, Naruto and the like. These shows are realizations of art. Comics come to life. Unfortunately, they aren't always in English dubs, so I often have to watch with subtitles engaged. But this doesn't detract from the shows, they often improve it in my opinion. The dubs often just don't line up with the mouth movements
of the characters
But, there are positives to having to read these subtitles. I never miss anything, not matter how quiet. I do the same thing with my video games, subtitles on. On the other hand, movies almost never have subtitles. and with good reason! It can distract from what is going on in the picture. First movie I remember seeing in theater is probably The Incredibles, wayyy back in 2004. I have since always enjoyed superhero movies, like the current Marvel trend with the Avengers and Ironman. Although the recent Deadpool film landed in my top ten of all time with ease, contrary to most of the Marvel movies.

Sand Volleyball

Noa Taipin sets up Kevin Snyder for a hit back across the net. Kevin Snyder comforts Noa Taipan after losing a tough point. Ethan Thomas begins his serve during a mini-tourament. My subject turned out to be several different people and the sport is obviously volleyball. I shot these far too late in the afternoon, and had to work to get them up to par. They were shot at the Linn-Benton volleyball courts I had to double up on the medium shots, for lack of a "true" overall shot. But they turned out far better than I originally thought.

WEEK 2 JOBS STUFFS

Reading Its What I Do  is starting to look like one of the best decisions I've made in a long time. Im far more accustomed to reading books like Game of Thrones or Lord of the Rings . But a recent timeline non-fiction book has gotten my attention for the first time ever. The amount of detail in the prelude shows a no-holds barred style of writing, with an attention to detail. The writing really makes it feel dangerous, and leaves readers with a cliffhanger that we don't get to resolve until later in the book. The pictures she took during the conflict in Libya are exceptional, showing the fear and uncertainty in many of the rebel fighters. Often these photos were taken just before a helicopter strafe or a bombing by government planes. Then when she is writing about her early life, she has the same style of writing. Only the truth is written. Jack P. waiting for a student to finish their question at Wednesday's Career Fair Emliy McTavish explains working at an insuran

WEEK 3 ART SHOW YAY!

Sorry its late everyone! It has been a really busy couple of days! I have been in this photojournalism class for about 3 weeks now, and I have taken some really good shots and some really bad shots. I'm really proud of the action shot I took the first week of class, the one of the baseball player jumping for first base. That one is my favorite. On the flip side of the spectrum, there have been HUNDREDS of bad photos. This Art show I attended, ended up being one of my worst series of shots. It was according to user error of course, as I forgot to account for the dark lighting and floodlights on the apintings Works by Dan Murnae and Cory Self at the Ekphrasis Art Show last Wednesday. Students discuss several pieces at Ekphrasis last Wednesday. A piece by Aurora Sherwood, presented last Wednesday at the Ekphrasis Art Show.
