I really enjoyed the visual rhetoric project. I was able to express myself in a new way. I really enjoy photography and the fact that I got to go knee deep in it and really get my hands dirty was exciting. The only obstacle I came a across was faulty models. There was a lot of people who were interested, but then the day they were supposed to shoot came up with an excuse to not come or some crazy reason, like I do not have a model body.I even tried to explain to them that I wanted someone without a model body because it would make the photos more authentic to me and the story I am trying to tell with them. I think i would edit the photos differently and pose some of the photos differently. While looking back through photos I got new ideas and saw things I didn’t like and wanted to fix in some of them. Also I would like more time to edit these photos and really play around with lighting, color, and effects.
Through these photos I really brought out the function of pathos. They cause of rejecting someone from your click or group can have negative effects on someone such as cutting or suicide attempts. The VR project really made me look back on the past and experience what I went through in high school. I had to tap into the emotion of what I felt. The VR project became very pathos for me. I started to establish what started to cause my isolation personally and what I did to overcome it, or lack their of. I hope my photos really give the viewer a since of self. I hope they open peoples eyes and really see what people go through in their day to day life feeling alone or out casted. I hope people taking something personal away from my photos.

Keeton, I really enjoyed your presentation today. The model you used seemed so authentic and real. It really made me think of how many people might be going through this that I've never really noticed had a problem. The way you used personal experiences helped me connect emotionally to the photos in a big way. Good job man, keep it up.
ReplyDeleteKeeton,
ReplyDeleteYou project was fantastic. I really felt like you connected with your photos and I like that you were able to share this with all of us through this assignment. You're photos captured it all so hardcore. It really made me think about what people can be going through and no one else could even notice. great work!

I'm so glad that you found the VR project useful and meaningful! I'm sorry to hear that you incurred so many issues with models, but it sounds like you ultimately chose the right person to portray your ideas. Again, I think it's so innovative to use a model to act out and portray your own experiences. Fab job, Keeton.
