Day 7: First Video!

I made my first video in my photojournalism class today! We shot with D90s and then edited using Final Cut Pro. I know its horrible and its out of focus and its overexposed and all that junk, but it took me so long to find a random person on the street and I literally shot it in 5 minutes since we were running out of time. :( I loved shooting and editing so I definitely want to do this again in the future!

Day 6: Robert Frank

Guess who's doing a project on Robert Frank! I kinda like his stuff but it might just be me because it instils a sense of nostalgia since he has a lot of cool picture that remind me of home. I look forward to doing more research on him. Check him out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mHtRZBDOgag

Day 5: Mind Blown

Got this at the Pow Wow for 4 dollars and the people who sold it to me didn't even know what animal it was so I of course had to buy it to do my own anthropological research. I thought It could make some good pictures. This was the inspiration for my purchase: http://theevolutionstore.com/ I always pass this store at home and I'm amazed at the collection. Course I could never afford the stuff but it always makes me wonder what adventures these people went through to obtain these artifacts.

Day 4: Yearbook Photos!

We did yearbook photos in Studio today. It could be worse:http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/08/04/bad-yearbook-photos-colle_n_670505.html#s122617&title=Were_Confused

Day 3: The Little Drummer Boy

Second day at the Pow Wow! They sold a lot of cool things there are I got to learn a lot about the culture. And now for awkward David Bowie and Bing Crosby: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DiXjbI3kRus

Day 2: Tiny Dancer

Today I went to the "New faces of an Ancient People: Traditional American Indian Pow Wow" here in State College. John Sanchez the coordinator of the event said that the reason why it is called new faces of an ancient people is to honor the children since they are important to the American Indian community in keeping up the tradition. It was amazing to see little dancers with pacifiers still in their mouths! It was a great experience. Classic: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Qn3tel9FWU

Day 1: Do you have a flag?

Here's my first photo a day! A duck claims his land in front of the Borland Building, Friday April 1, 2011. It looks like the ducks have made it back to State College for spring. This inpired my image: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTduy7Qkvk8
