These are some of my thoughts while watching the senior presentations.
Photocommunciation student- I like that she was very focused on honing her skills, it seems that she’s found what she comfortable taking pictures and was surrounded her career goals around the fact. I also think that it’s cool the she using analog cameras which is something that I hope to get better off, but of course I’m consider the cost of such practice. Digital seems more practical to me right now.
Visual Arts Student- She is very driven by whatever seems to intrigue her and part of her everyday life. She’s very talented and continuously practicing, she talked about trying are stills of drawing and drawing from eh fun of which is something admire. She also didn’t say no to an opporunity was able to get a job that used her skills on a day to day basis.
Game Studies Student- I like that she was very courageous in teaching her self. She was stressed being connected with people in your field and seeking to know the people that make up the field. She was very career oriented, and I definitely understand the importance of practicing and teaching yourself but also networking and connecting with folks.
Website.
1.http://www.daviduzochukwu.com- I like the images are large, the website is simple with little distraction.
2.http://www.brentstirton.com – His documentary work is amazing. I like that there is an option for captions but it’s not intrusive. I also like the various categories, but never too much
3. http://larajade.com- I love the simplicity of the website. I want to add a blog, I also like the various collections but in grid form. I like that you can click on to see what’s in the specific collection . I also didn’t think of a quick portfolio but thats a great idea for showing all your work at once so that one isn’t overwhelmed by that.
4. https://www.jansochor.com – I like this sight because of the long form written portion. I like the diversity into pic he choices to cover. I also like he idea of having a section called photo essays’ which is a little bit more flexible then photojournalism.
