Baraka

             I watched a movie in class called Baraka. It was Images and mini video clips of different places all around the world. This movie  has no dialog but it does have background music. Ti me i found this Movie very hard to watch at some parts because to me some of the scenery shots were not interesting. On the contrast they're were some very interesting parts especially when they were about the different cultures and the people in the different cultures.
           In this Movie the only place I think they did not go was to thee north and south pole. Th movie showed many different cultures and how they went about there every day lives, there spiritual gatherings and dances. It also showed the difference of men and woman in some cultures how they have two totally different places to bath. I found this very interesting . I liked all of the video of the different cultures dancing and just the different ceremony's they have.
          I would not recommend this movie to any one who does not like pictures of scenery or clip of different cultures also I would never recommend this movie to some one who does not like silent movies. I would recommend this movie to anyone who like; silent movies, pictures of scenery and clips of different cultures. If you like silent movie but do not like scenery or culture then i would not recommend this movie to you. If you like scenery or clips of culture i would recommend this movie to you. I hope you watch and enjoy this movie.

Note on portriat Part 2

Working with people
  • Collaborative project
  • Successful photographers learn to be comfortable with strangers
Camera format
  • This is important
  • 4x5 is very large and show a lot of detail but takes a long time to process
  • Small photo less detail quicker process
Film Choice
  1. Slow
  • Black and white film or dye is moor detailed than color
  • shutter speed slow
  2. Fast
  • candid and environmental are good to take
  • Advantage you can hold camera
  • Sharp image
Black and white or color
  • Black and white good for attention on subject
  • Black and white edgy energy
  • Color is preferred for portraits always consider mood while choosing black and white or color
Equipment choice of lenses
  • Different focus lenses gives you different results
  • 24mm - distorted, to close face looks like balloon,
  • 50mm- less round, less broad, distortion is acceptable
  • 100mm- Most faltering, no distortion
Accessories
  • Tripod, cable release and reflector are all good
Formal portrait
  • Simplest portrait
