Natural Lighting

This natural lighting assignment is of my best friend Aaysia. She is a very special person to me because of everything that we've been through together and the fun memories that we have shared. In this picture she is wearing a blue shirt that looks really good with this natural light. Her face is glowing and you can see that she is thinking about something that is very deep. When I took this picture, the wind was blowing and you can see a piece of her hair that shows us that. The image is in focus and is not abstract. It would have worked well if I just focused on Aaysia and had everything else in the back out of focus, but either way I think that this picture turned out good.

Timeline Project

I was in a group with Carmen and Briana for our timeline project. It wasn't a very difficult project for us to do because we had a pretty good imagination and knew what we wanted it to look like from the start. We started off with first getting all the information that we needed from the web and wrote it all down. It kind of sucked because I wrote really sloppy and I couldn't even read my own handwriting! So I typed it up on word and printed it out so that it would be easier for both me and my group mates. After we got the information we had to decide on how our timeline would look like. We didn't want it to be just the average lookin' timeline with sharpie on white poster paper, so we decided on using chalk on a black cardboard. We spent a period sharpening the chalk. It was boring and tedious and it wasn't really necessary, but it's all gravy.

When we actually started writing on our actual timeline, I started to get worried about how we would be able to write all our information down with chalk because of how bulky it was even though we had sharpened it. I realized after I had wrote the first thing that it would be extremely difficult to read if I continued writing with chalk. So I scribbled it out with chalk and made it look like it was meant to be like that. We then cut up the words that we printed out (which wasn't our original plan, but it worked out good) and then glued them onto our timeline.

The end result looks beautiful! Extremely colorful and unique :)
