I'm really sad we never got to see inside Eleanor's sheep dome.

Dec. 10 – 9 a.m. – 5 p.m.

I'll be around all of exam week, check my office or drop me a note and we'll set up a time to look at work.

Don’t push the deadline. Be paranoid - no portfolios will be accepted after 5:00 p.m. Remaining time will be announced throughout the day as shown on the clock on computer 0.

Deadline: Thursday, December 13, 5:00 p.m. SHARP

You must turn in your equipment with your portfolio. Be sure that all filters are in good condition. If anything is missing or broken, you’re responsible for replacing or repairing it. If you don’t, your account will be flagged and you won’t graduate.

Portfolio requirements:

10 single images, shot during this semester
1 photo story

Color laser prints of all the images, as well as one CD with high resolution versions of the images, to be placed in a 9x12 manila clasp envelope with your name and section on it.

All images must have complete, AP style captions, proper credit lines and correct file names.

To print photos with captions:

• When you are done toning, cropping and captioning, go to File -> Print with Preview
• Make sure “Center Image” is checked
• If a horizontal, click on “Scale to Fit Media”
• If a vertical, set height to 7.5 inches
• Click on “Description” to get captions to print
• Click on “Labels” to get file name to print
• Do not rotate prints in Page Setup
• Send to the HP 4600 printer

It's The Bokeh! Amongst other things...

Remember Mark E. Johnson's speech about the Bokeh? Well, the metaphysical and the practical have merged in this tutorial about how to make sweet shapes out of the Bokeh in your photos. Now we can not only have beautiful out-of-focus-ness, but it can be in the shape of a heart. Photography + Cuteness= Mark's favorite thing! :)

Clips on Monday

Stop, Pan and Blur - one of each, not from ads. Stop will be easy, pan and blur harder.

Publishing Opportunity

Hey photo friends,

I am the New Media Intern for UGAs Admissions Department and I need your help! If you would like to get some of your pictures of life at UGA published on-line, I can help you out. Basically my internship allows me to design content for the Admissions website... which currently is pretty lame. So my job is to come up with cool and exciting things to put on a Media page that is currently being designed.

Where you come in: If you have pictures that you think show interesting things about UGA or Athens in general and would like to get your name out there... I'm doing a package called "Slice of Life" for the website. If you would like to be considered for the package, submit your photos to me at morgankc@uga.edu

How to submit:

Attach photos as JPG files and in the body of the email, place your captions. Include all relevant information just like you would for class. I will let you know via e-mail if your photos have been chosen for the site.

Thanks and can't wait to see your pictures!

Assignment: Stop, Pan, Blur

For Wednesday, November 7, you'll need to submit three photos - one stop, one pan and one blur. The three photos do not need to be of the same subject. I strongly recommend that you do not wait until the last minute to shoot these - this will be the most technically challenging shoot of the semester, plan on doing at least one reshoot before you submit - particularly of the pan.

Assignment: The Photo Story

For Wednesday, October 31, you'll need to submit 3-5 photos from your photo story. Be prepared to talk about the story, what you want it to tell and how you plan on achieving those goals.
