My Multimedia Video

This is a video of me about the last three months in college. Here you will see some of my assignments for photojournalism and advance portrait class. Also the video is speaking in spanish. The reason is because I been doing every assignment for multimedia II in english, but I think that time will be nice to do it in my own language because no matter if I'm taking in english or spanish. Photography is an universal language and all I do. I do it with my heart!

Gregory Heisler

I'm making this post from the auditorium at Gwinnett Technical College waiting for to meet Mr. Heisler.

Since 1976, Denis Reggie and his exclusive team of hand-picked photojournalists have covered over 1,700 weddings in the documentary style he pioneered.

Commander Station 11

Thursday 4th I went to Station 11 to take more shots for my photojournalism assignment. I spent 6 hrs with the firefighters. I went to 4 emergency calls. Two accidents, one fire alarm and one medical problem. It was very exciting. Also I'm thinking of going back to the station in a few more months, maybe summer, so I can get some fire shots.

Movie

This is my movie assignment for multimedia class. My movie is about Cris Carit a Costa Rican Artist. Enjoy!

Erich Hartmann

"A large portion of my work is concerned with people because people are the most inventive and news-making part of our lives. Yet I am as much attracted to the evidence of their presence and efforts, whether good or evil, as I am to the people themselves." Erich Hartmann

Jeff Ascough Wedding Photographer.

The first photographer in the UK to shoot weddings with a photojournalist's style, Ascough garnered global attention when his wedding work was featured in a 2004 issue of the Washington Post. Given his style, it makes sense that Ascough cites Henri Cartier-Bresson as an influence. While many wedding photographers shoot nonstop, he often composes an image and waits for the "decisive moment."

Eye-One Display 2

Colour management starts with your monitor, and if it isn't correctly calibrated there is little if any chance of colour being displayed accurately. Therefore, the key to obtaining colour accuracy and consistency across applications and systems is to use a good quality hardware device to measure the light emitted from the display. This review discusses the latest revision to Gretag Macbeth's Eye-One Display colorimeter along with the supporting Eye-One Match software. CLICK HERE.

As you see in this picture this nice man looks so proud to be on the street playing for people to get some money to survive in this world. 

Black & White

This is one of the images from my BLACK AND WHITE Final Four in my second quarter as a photographry student at Gwinnett tech. I took all the shots in the same day. It was very cold and cloudy. I had to stay a long time in these places to wait for the perfect light. But when the light came it was too bright so I decided to take three different exposures for the normal, the highlights and the shadows, and then put them together  to make the perfect photograph.
