5 Websites


Killer Time-lapse



1. On this website, I learned about this guy named Joe Carpa. Carpa does time-lapse photography and is asked by various companies to shoot time-lapses for them. I learned about the process of making an edit and finding the right location for a shoot. Time-lapse photography is something that really interests me and I would love to get a powerful camera to shoot time-lapses one day.

2.  I learned about the importance of music choice while making an edit.

3.  Time-lapses are a business I could potentially tap into when I grow up. Any job relating to photography, video creation and editing, and other fields with similar objectives I'm pretty interested in.

Photographer Resolutions


1. On this website, the author dived more into the personal side of photography. This website kind of makes me realize I can fall behind in my photography skills compared to others. Sometimes I blame my gear when a shoot is not particularly good that day. It's really easy to blame outside forces for your failures. I should be more organized, use more of the gear potentially useful to me, and etc.

2. I learned about how I have a long way to go if I want to even try to pursue a photography/video career.

3. This site relates to photography by connecting with the photographer rather than the plain image.


Style

http://petapixel.com/2014/08/25/approaching-problem-style/

1. On this website, the author discusses style and what it takes to obtain it. This website is more focused on a professional level, but still has some tips on it for beginners. The website basically says that it takes time to develop style. This is true, but is one of the only things I agree with on this website.

2.  I learned that I can't go on lists like these to develop my style. The only way to develop a style is to take photos.

3. While taking photos in class, I should stick to my strengths as a photographer. This is how I will develop my style.

Using a projector

1. On this page, it showed a project a photographer and an animator worked on. They brought a projector, a DSLR, and a computer out to the wilderness. These guys had some really creative shots in their video and I would love to be involved in a project like this in the future.

2. I learned about using a projector while shooting. I had actually never seen this done before and it looked really cool.

3. The producers of this video went out to the wild for six weeks and took video of illuminated wildlife. The end result really brings a lively and neon feeling to the forrest and that was captured really well in the video.  

4. Both of these guys make 3D art and projections and their other works are pretty cool.  


Drone Photography

http://petapixel.com/2016/11/15/dji-drops-jaws-seriously-powerful-phantom-4-pro-inspire-2-drones/

1. On this page, DJI, a drone company is releasing two new drones which are pretty well made and have amazing specs. Drones have interested me for a while, but I probably won't be able to own a quality one for a while. These new drones are remarkably expensive and would be a tragedy to somehow destroy.

2. I learned that drones are becoming incredible and easy to use, but are very expensive. I have faith in my future, so maybe I'll be able to get a drone someday.

3. I saw some drone video and it looks incredible. The image quality for these drones right now are better than the DSLR I have right now.
