Africa black/white powerpoint and Mural Project preview

The photos from the powerpoint were beautiful, peaceful... The photographer got really good ones of the animals in Africa, he got good position for taking the pictures. They were really good photos on the animals and he found spots where to take it so that the back round can fit it.

  

This is my favorite picture from the Africa black and white powerpoint because it make me feel happy and that since that they are a family ( I think ) they stick together as a herd. Also it sets the mood that they are ready to go some where or go out hunting for food and the one under the cheetah makes me that he/she is looking at something while the others are looking at something different from what he/she is looking.

A rule that is showing in this picture would be simplicity because it shows a plain back round and it is primarily showing the cheetah and nothing else in the picture.

The camera he used was a Pentax 6711with only two fixed lenses, he used to capture the animals in the photo. The reason he takes these photos was that he wants to show the animals personality in different ways that can be reveled."You wouldn't take a portrait of a human being from a hundred feet away and expect to capture their spirit; you'd move in close." His hope on taking this photos to record a last testament to the wild animals and places there before they are destroyed by the hands of man.

A theme that i would use here for Akins would be showing how hard the students are working to get better grades to become successful in the near future. A other thing i would use would be how much fun the students are having here at Akins and express there feeling in each photo.

 Its worth it because we can express everyones feelings on the mural or show how they have fun in Akins High School. Also we can get to known the students more well than ever! :) An other reason would be that is shows all the students on how they are in Akins, get to know them a little more better than ever, and see what fun is to them in Akins. 

Some good things for using a phone on this project would be that you can keep up with the photos and bad things would be that the person you work with won't be there with the phone, it can die, also it can have bad quality for taking a picture. Some good things for using a SLR cameras would be that you can have good quality from far and near places. The bad things with a SLR camera is that sometimes when downloading them it can be delete, batteries take a long time to charge.

I think we should use SLR cameras for this project because it has a good quality for taking pictures, using might be trouble cause you need the cord to download the pictures that you have taken and the camera you can just do it right there and now.
