Week 2 BOC: Crime Scene

The crime scene where a woman has been stabbed and left to die on the computer desk after attempting to log onto the computer. We do not know what the intentions were only to find that there were divorce envelope left on the desk already opened. I used the lamp to show the scene as if it just happened. I had the knife blobbed with color dyed apple sauce and wrote "Divorce Settlement" to make the story. I used the lamp as my lighting to show where the crime was done. I wanted to give it that office look and the darkness around it to give it that dark feel also. It was done during the day even so I left the curtains closed to make it look like it was done at night. I made myself the subject because I think I can give a good dead person appeal on a shot. I posed myself enough to make myself look like I am dead. I had to pose in a way that I was dangling that my jaw bone hurt laying hard on the desk. I put my camera on a timer taking about five shots per frame. In each shot, I posed with my arm on the desk, with my arm off the desk, with my glasses on or with my glasses off. I did one without any notes, but it didn’t create much of a story or drama so with a note seemed better. I even did some with a scary note on it. I thought it looked too horror type so I put the divorce envelope to make it more modern and real. The red blood I wanted to look like it was real and thick so I used apple sauce to thickin my fake blood.

Week 2 EOC Sacrifices

I would give up everything including my health to be in my career. I like to be in the eye of the storm and be in the midst of poverty to make my photography be valuable. It is in my intuition to make a news of anything I see. My family comes second with my career because without my camera where or how do I support my family. I would live in anywhere and eat next to nothing because that is what it is about. It is about getting yourself in the situation to be understanding and grossed into the culture and be vulnerable to my surroundings. I love to be in the most dangerous situations such as bombings and battles to capture the actions out there.

“The bullets tore holes in the water around me, and I made for the nearest steel obstacle.' said Robert Capa after capturing the 1947 war invasion on the beaches of France."

1 Like Capa I want it to be the most riveting events that makes one’s skin want to jump out with shock. It is my duty to make the best of every moment. I drive on action and no action causes no reaction. I would sacrifice my time with my life partner to be able to capture the most beautiful scenes and fall in love. I love to make my scene my partner and my camera my love to be in that moment of peace. Those moments are the most timing places that makes me me. It makes me find peace and harmony and craziness and chaos all in one lifetime. I crave the situations where there is politics and culture clashing in everyone’s faces and know that it will be resolved later when there is peace. I like seeing the change after a big event because that is where I learn and we learn that life is about life.
