Film Fest Logo

This logo that I did is a logotype because the husky paw is the recognized logo for St. Anthony. This incorporates good logo design because it has retention value. When people see a husky paw, they think of St. Anthony, well at least for me. This relates to the SAVHS Film Fest because it says it in words on it, and it has the logo for St. Anthony on it.

Logos

The logo that I like most is Nike. I can always picture it in my head because it is a very popular brand that many people use. Over the years the logo hasn't really changed much. It's always been the swoop and then in bubble letters, "NIKE". Normally this complete logo is just on shirts. For the shoes there is pretty much just the swoop. On brands this logo comes in many different colors. When I see this logo it makes me think of the spokesmen for Nike because they are sponsored by it. I don't really know how this logo makes me feel.

Portraiture and Identity

1. If I could describe my series of photographs in a few words or phrases, I would describe them as funny, not serious, and not planned.
2. I chose to photograph the person that I did because he is my friend, and I thought he would be the easiest to photograph.
3. I learned about 
Nick that he is pretty 
photogenic while doing this project.
4. The thing that was easy about photographing Nick
was the fact that we hang out sometimes so after school I could take photos of him like at his house or something like that.   
           5. The biggest challenge in photographing Nick was that he sometimes wouldn't let me take photos of him, so I kind of struggled in getting enough photos on time.
6. I like the 3rd photo the best because it looks like he's modeling for the clothing brand that he's wearing, and I find that sort of funny.

A New Day, A New Quarter...

One goal I have for this quarter is to do all of the assignments and projects on time, and to most of my work in class when we have time for it. Ways that identity can be represented by art is that photographing people that show emotion can portrait who they are. Also photographing people by doing their hobbies shows identity because it's who they are.

Something and Nothing

I chose my room to photograph because I am around it all the time and I thought it would be cool if I could make it look like something more than it really is.

What I see in this photo is what looks like a kitchen of an apartment of some sort. It looks messy and cluttered with dishes and bags of stuff. 

Questions I have for this photo are:
-What is the artist trying to say with this photo?
-What composition techniques is the artist using?
-What are the things in the bag?
-What is outside of the photo?

I am not completely sure of what the artist is trying to say in this photograph. To me it just looks like a photo of any kitchen area that any person could have.

Deer In The Headlights

My idiom was "Deer In The Headlights". I made it by taking different photos that related to my idiom off the internet and putting them together. I chose this imagery because it represented my idiom. The story behind this is that a deer is suprised in the street in front f a car.

One thing I discovered about photography while taking these photos was that you can take something unimportant and turn it into an image that represents something. 
This will help me in future photography assignments by helping me choose things to take photos of because i know that I don't have to be too picky.

Assignment 2

This is an extreme close up image. The composition technique I used for this photo is the rule of thirds. I took this photo in the hallway outside of the classroom. This is my favorite because I think it looks cooler than all the other ones. I would title this photograph, "Face".
