APRIL 6TH

PHOTOSHOP! What an incredible program! It literally can transform a simple picture into a beautiful master piece.  I dont have it on my computer but I played around with it on my friends computer and it is so neat.  There are reasy things to do as well as extremely complicated things and I think that would be super fun to learn!

APRIL 4TH

Today I went to 2 different parks! I have een looking at many professional pictures and I have come to realize I think parks are beautiful.  I love all of the natural green and plants there are and I think they are the perfect place to take pictures.  I went to 2 parks inWeston and they were both so pretty. I walked round and decided good places to take pictures.  I didnt take any though with a real camera, just my phone!

ALTHOUGH I AM HORRIBLE AT BLOGGING AND IT SLIPS MY MIND ALL OF THE TIME........................ I have been taking amazing pictures!!!!! I am always taking pioctures wherever I go1 Even if i don't have my actual camera, I use my phone if I find something fasinating enough to take pictures of.  The other day i even took a photo shoot of my best friend at a beautiful park with amazing sun light and different tecniques I have learned from researching! I cant not wait to put it all together for my final presentation!

TOMORROW IS ULTRA!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ultra Music Festival is the biggest music festival in the entire world! I have been waiting for so long to go and one reason is is so I can take lots of pictures! There will be 50,000 people there each and every day so it may be hard to take pictures because of how confined I will be in the crowd but I am going to figure out some way to take them for my pleasure and for the WISE project!  Its going to be crazy and I want to take videos too to incorporate into my project! I'll blog tomorrow and probably post some pictures!

FINALLY... I GOT IT!

I feel so good today!  I know it took a long time, but yesterday I had a long talk with Coach Love and I went over everything I was a little bit confused on.  I finally unerstand everything and caught up a lot.  I did around 14 noodle tools yesterday and I am more motivated than ever to make this project amazing.

Also, on a personal note.... I have been eating healthier lately and am getting the courage to work out frequently.  I actually think that is helpng my body stay awake and helping me want to be more active in every aspect of my life (ESPECIALLY MY WISE PROJECT!)

I am going to dinner soon and I am going to focus on the presentation of the food.  That is art within the actual food.  Presentation is a lot and I want to tae notic of how different artists do different things, not just photographers!  Maybe I will be inspired by the way food is presented on my plate tonight...... I'll keep ya guys posted!

INTERNSHIP......... FAIL

After much thinking, I decided not do continue my internship anymore.  I think Weston Photography is a wonderful place and business, but I don't think it went well with my project.  It was too much work that didn't directly connect with photography at all.  I wanted to do something that taught me about any aspect of photography.  It could have ranged from camera work to lighting to directing or to printing.  I really hope there is something out there for me within the course of WISE that can teach me a lot from a professional standpoint!

INTERNSHIP

The day of my internship I was so excited!  I came home as quickly as I could (with out speeding of course) and I changed into what I thought was a trendy, but professional outfit.  I wanted to look the part of a photographer.  I had directions written down because Weston Photography is pretty confusing to get to.  As soon as I got there......... I was out to work.  I wanted to keep busy and do what the people who were in charge of me asked me to do, but boy was it not what I was planning.

Weston Photography takes school pictures of many elementary schools.  I sat an an extremely unorganized desk filled with papers and had to sort a pile of pictures they gave me.  There were hundreds!  I was assigned to find the orders of the pictures and then place every picture in the envelope they had to go in.  I was there for a few hours and to be honest.. couldn't wait to leave.  They asked me to come everyday after school and I didn't know how to respond on the spot because I really did not expect to work like that and not get paid :(
