Pecker

2009-02-26T18:33:00.000-08:00

This movie was kind of funny and dummy.
One thing I will never forget.
When pecker wasn't famous and nobody saw the photos the people which were photographed didn't care about it. But when pecker showed his work he destroyed some life because didnt wanted to displayed in the way how pecker see them. Because of that he lost a lots of friends and his girlfriend. But after pecker explained his girlfriend that photography is art, he got her back.
So after his friends understood it what means art and they are okay to displayed, pecker enjoyed art not alone, he enjoyed it with his all friends.
So don't present your friends in a way which they dont like to be present.
Do it only if they understand that its not something against them, it just art and fun.

This movie was the best one, even I didn't understand the whole story.
I couldn't understand them because they mumbled all the time.
I was frustrating because they didnt open the mouth to speak!!!!!
But visually was it a pleasure to watch it.
How saturated it was and sometimes desaturated.
I enjoyed the movie at lots.

One hour Photo

I like this video for some good reasons.
1. Perfection
I just could not stop laughing when Robin Williams was screaming at this technical guy who came to "repair" the printer. He just called him in to repair it for .03 off color.
It was just funny. But that shows how much he cared about the print.
So it doesn't stop at taken photos, and not at edit photos. we should care also about the perfection of the print.
2. Good shoots
I liked some shoots at the movie. when he dreamed, this shoot where everything is white. just beautiful. Or the shoot, when he is going home at the first day and he comes to his car where the glass is broken. Everything turns to yellowish tone. Gives a creepy feeling.
3. Photo lies
You could see that at the photos this family is perfect. A happy family with no problems. But actually they weren't. So photos don't lie to the existents because the family exist but how they feel and live were not true.

Light painting

I like the light painting a lot. I saw it at the first time at one photo and thought it was made on photoshop. But after Sara's class where we did some light painting I understood how could I do it without photoshop. Its pretty cool.
At this page you can see how light painting works and the technique..
here it is
I like those 3 photos which I really like.
1st Photo
I like this photo because of all those crazy lines and the big bright star.
The small fine lines on left corner give some cool and get crazy feeling.

2nd Photo
This photo has a awesome contrast. The light on the right corner gives the feeling like...something awesome happens.
and the exact people and lines good.

3rd Photo
At this photo I like the cool cold feeling. Those all blue colors transfer you direct to the big sea. And if somebody doesn't know how to create those blue lines he will be amazed.

Lines

This assignment was pretty cool because at the first time I thought, wow lines where can I find lines but later when I tried to take some pictures I noticed that there is a lots of lines in our world.
In every subject we can find a structure.

2nd Day of School

Hi all together.

I'm Thomas and my Nickname is Tame.
Last year I moved from Germany to Canada and I love Canada a lot. I just miss my friends and the food.

I studied Business before I came to Canada and I don't want do it again because the rules and other things is not the same. So I had to learn it again and forget what I learned.
I decided to learn something new and it's Photography. My friend had an SLR Camera and I liked it to take Pictures with it. Why I choose PrairieView is another question.
Some days I was at DonsPhoto and saw the brochure of PrairieView and I liked the Pictures. I gone to my friend and told him "Hey, did you see this nice brochure with nice Pictures in it?" "I didn't but I know where the school in Winnipeg is" answered he. "This is a brochure about a school?I didn't read it, I just looked at the pictures and thought it's a print shop or something else." After this conversation I read this book and decided to go to this school. I was scared they will not take me because of my bad English but somehow I convinced them that I can do it. So here I am.

I'm very interested in Wedding shooting and portraits because I love to work with people.
After College I want to go to Germany for one or two month and shoot some weddings.
I hope and pretty sure that in 10 month my knowledge and skills are good to take better picture and understanding how light does work.

One of my worst experience which I made was at a wedding. They paid me very well and my job was just to take Snap shoots. At the morning they had a Photographer and they got their nice poses pictures. Back to my bad and worst experience. I bought 2 weeks ago the Pentax 540 GZ because I had some problems with light and thought with a flash I will not have this problem anymore. The Wedding was on Saturday and on Friday night I checked my equipment and I recognized that my Camera broke down. Somehow it didn't read my SD Card. Can you imagine how nervous and stressed I was? On Saturday night I drove from Steinbach to Winnipeg (ca. 1 hour) and bought a new body at Future shop. Drove back home and dressed me up for wedding. I came 5 minutes earlier than the bridal couple came. At this time I couldn't check out the rooms and how bright they are. So the ceremony started and I didn't know in which condition of light I will shoot. It was horrible. Without a flash I would get only crap but the problem was I wasn't that good taking pictures with flash. I tried with bouncing flash light to shoot but it was hard. At the end of this day I got a head attack. This was my worsts experience.
