#J2. Ransom and Mitchell—“A Wonderful Mess,”

-
  1. What is your reaction? My reactions to these images is just how unique and abstract they are. I find both these images to be very interesting in wanting to know what is happening and their vibrant colors.
  2. How do you think they do it? They first take actual pictures of what can be made and then they must have put the image through photoshop to create more vibrant colors and the unrealistic things attached to both the bird and the women. 
  3. Which gallery was the most interesting and why? The most interesting gallery to look at was the Fine Art because the images all told unique stories with the water and creatures under the water but still making the feel like real life.
  4. Which gallery was the least interesting and why? The Commercial gallery was the least interesting for me to look at since they overall don't look realistic and seem very odd to my liking and random.
  5. Read the “about r&m” page? Who are they and who does what? Ransom and Mitchell are a  still and motion creative team in San Francisco. They create highly detailed and visually-lush photography.Stacey Ransom is a digital artist/set designer and Jason Mitchell who is a director/photographer.

People who have phones out remind them of a "broader social community" because they have access to the internet and texting. Does the presence of a cell phone change the performance of easy tasks? Yes it does because they distract you from what you should actually be focused on.  What did the presence of a cell phone do to the quality of social interaction in the 20

Concentration statement

1. In my concentration, I photographed my friend to tell the story of how I once felt in my life: forsaken by God. I depict the development of my faith in God by using a transition from black and white to color. Focusing on contrast and texture, I chose Charlotte to portray a painful stage in my life, after my father passed away. I sought to express my journey from loneliness to a state of freedom. The pieces in my concentration do this through the discovery of finding joy in God and nature. 2. The inspiration behind my concentration was the artistic photographer, Oscar Gustav Rejilander, who had a style I wanted to emulate: vintage figurative photos. From his photo titled “Homeless” I observed how locked away this homeless child must have felt as he was bent over with his head on his knees.
