Final Exam Review

1.
2. I already knew how to place the photos in order.
3. I learned how to trim the clips.
4. I'm concerned about the editing quality and getting the assignment completed and turned in on time.
5. I feel confident that I'll have my picture take early because I have my own camera at home.
6. I would say that I'd take a picture everyday of my leap to see if it would improve over the weeks.

Portfolios

1.Travis Haughton
Sports and stories
Faces turned around, little kids overused, ugly backgrounds.
Different ideas, looser.
I didn’t like how the pictures were grainy and I didn’t like how many children he over used. I did like some sports photos.

Melissa Golden
Stories
Boring, out of focus, overly photo shopped.
Portraits.
I disliked that they weren’t in rule of thirds format, I liked the black and white portraits.

Sam Adams
Sports
No direct faces, issues in the background, bad composition.
Black and white photos, scenery.
