GOOD
Today, our class started a new project, which is lighting. We set up a lighting studio in the media lab and practiced taking pictures of each other. Even though the pictures did not come out very well, the ones that I took at home came out very well. I took pictures of my brother for portraits, which was very difficult as he did not want me to. I also took pictures of an apple, magic 8 ball and my neighborhood for still life and landscape. They all fortunately came out except some nice landscape photographs that I took of the river beside my house. When I developed and printed them, most people liked them and I was also proud of them. I hope all my photographs come out well from now on.
BAD
At the beginning of the semester, our class started with a 1500 words essay. Everyone was overwhelmed with the burden and had hard time finishing it. I was no exception and so, I also had hard time finishing my essay. The topic for the essay was also very vague and ambiguous and it required a lot of research. I have never heard of the term "The Gaze" and so at the beginnning I had no idea where to start. However Ms.Oriogun gave us some names of famous theorists and photographers and by reading their theories and looking at the photographs, I understood what it was. It was not the most fun essay ever, but I guess we need practice for another essay that we will eventually have to write.
