Photographers tend to be good directors of photography in the realm of video, film and television. They also make good graphic designers. Photographers can work in journalism as well. Photographers can work in advertising. Pursuing photography independently, on commission can be difficult but also profitable.
warm Up 56: What publication (magazine) would you want to take photos and write for? Why? What do you like about that publication?
Given the choice, I would love to be a photographer and/or writer for National Geographic. The photos of Nat Geo are gorgeous and capture unforgettable natural and human stories. I'd be able to travel to get photos of the most beautiful locations on earth. Being able to capture the human experience will be eye opening. The spread of unique and exotic animal an plant species I could capture would be better than any sum of money I would receive for the job.
Warm Up 57: Happy Friday! What are your plans for the weekend?
Tomorrow, I will be competing in the CIF swimming finals in the 50 and 100 freestyle. For these I am seeded 7th and 5th, respectively. I was able to reduce my time in the 100 free to 47.5 seconds, which was a near-second drop from my previous best. Hopefully I will be able to match that tomorrow. I'll spend Sunday with my family most likely, seeing as it is mother's day.
Warm Up 58: Take a look at these easy "photo hacks." What do you think? Which one would you try first, and why?
These are some neat photography tricks. I found all of them to be interesting, maybe I will try some. I particularly liked the instant studio with the laptop and pane of glass, very creative. I also enjoyed the creation of colored gels to affect coloration of the image. Honorable mention: The CD lens flare trick.
Warm Up 59: Take a look at this site.
In portraits, ensuring that the model is dynamic is very important. This guide addresses this issue in detail. The involvement of a subject in any shot is paramount. Even in landscape photography there should be some central figure that stands out in the composition. This is an important guide, which I agree with.
Warm Up 60: What are your plans for the summer?
I will mostly be working and swimming this summer. Tuition is not cheap, and I will need to be able to pay it and have some disposable income throughout my freshman year. I will socialize as much as I can however, as many of my friends will be leaving for far away come fall. A friend of mine from Michigan will be visiting me later on, and I might travel to Michigan myself. I also plan to compete in some swim meets.
