Final Review

1.

Margret Thatcher, lady Prime Minister, pictured on the left, is next to the traditional "Dress Tree", in her honor positioned at the White House. She died in the early 1990's, where then president Clinton presided over international affairs, and ordered that a picture be positioned on the wall.

Richard Lindt, PFC, on the bus in Khandahar Province, Iraq. His battalion was redeployed after the 3rd WTC attacks in 2010, which prompted President Obama to declare war against the United Arab Islamic Nations.

2.

1. Rule of thirds
The main focus of the image should be along the outside corner, if the image is divided into thirds.

2. Balancing Elements

The image should appear balanced by placing objects to one side or another.

3. Leading Lines

The lines should lead along parallel or intersecting path so that it appears a vertigo component.

4. Symmetry and Patterns (repetition)

There should be easily noticeable patterns in the image, be it on material, or objects themselves.

5. Viewpoint

The viewpoint should be an element necessary to determine the subject and purpose of the photo, it should be a necessary component.

6. Background

There should be an apparent background, but it should not interfere with the subject of the image.

7. Create depth

There should be depth to the image, with blurs or size comparison. 

8. Framing

There should be a noticeable "frame" or objects or lines surrounding the main subject of the image.

9. Cropping

Cropping should not change the meaning of the image, nor should it be neglected. There should be just enough, but it should not change the message of the image.

10. Mergers and avoiding them

Mergers, or where an object seams to continue along with another object, should be avoided so that the focus can be on the main subject.

3.

Aperture: the opening, similar to the iris in a human eye, that affects focus and depth of field in an image.

Shutter Speed: the speed at which the shutter, or the eyelid, closes and bloke light, and opens and lets light in.

ISO: the sensitivity of the light sensor to light, affecting the brightness and grainy quality of the image. 

4.Any manipulation of an image to change the message or meaning is unethical in any resolve. Any change to the image should not change the expression, the meaning, or the message portrayed in the image.

5. Environmental: type where people are situated in a setting where they would naturally be, or where they would frequent.

Self: reflecting on oneself, where the photographer is the subject of the image, and reflects on the current situation or state of mind of the photographer, while sometimes portraying a meaning or message. 

Casual: where the subject is not positioned in a natural or artificial setting, but where the subject is featured in a setting where you may find anyone, where the viewer can relate.

6.

Exposure: the amount of light apparent in the image

Depth of Field: where objects closer to the person are larger than objects farther away.

Focal Length: the angel of view, where it determines the magnification and wide angle

7.

Early: These magazines where predominantly like books, they where not with many pictures if any, and there where few generic images associated with them.

Poster: Individual pictures where chosen, and printed, and Little or no get was used. It was still more like a book, but magazines had established themselves as a news and entertainment source.

Married to Type: Text now features a predominant role in the magazine cover, images are widely used in the magazine, there is clear branding, and the main focus is split between the text and image.

Forrest of Words: Text now is the most important part of the magazine cover, and text is the only clearly discernible thing, the images take a back seat, and the text is now in a front seat role.
