For my shadowing
assignment I followed photographer Alison Wadley. Along with another classmate,
we drove to main campus to shoot photos for the Mesquite. The photos were for an
advance on Banned Books Week. The library is hosting a read aloud event for the
week-long celebration of freedom to read. The campaign also raises awareness on
the problem of censorship on books that are removed or challenged in libraries
and schools across the United States.
When we arrived to the
library there was a display of books on a shelve wrapped around with caution
tape. The books displayed, are books
that have been challenged at the university library. However, students are
still aloud to check out the books throughout the semester.
As we shadowed Alison,
she would explain the reason for shooting in different angles. She told us
because of the lighting in the library to shoot around 800 ISO. She was very
descriptive when explaining the ISO and shutter spent to shoot with.
Overall, my experience
shadowing Alison was a great opportunity. The shadowing provided me with preparation
when I go out on my own shoot. It’s always important to get the write ISO for
lighting and the correct shutter speed to take a photo.
These are really good pictures. Your ISO was great and it reflected in the quality of the photo. The light on the second picture is really good and the description of your assignment was detailed enough. Good job!
ReplyDeleteThese are great pics. I like the second one, it really emphasized on the shadowing of the photographer. I like the exposure as well, it was right on clear! Awesome job! :)
