Every Image has a unique fact to them we can see their facial expressions and know what their thinking in their enviroment and know what their environment is. 

Unit 7: Activity3

• As editors exercise their ever-increasing power over information control, what limits would you impose on them as to the extent to which they can manipulate the photographic image? 
• Devise a series of guidelines that will control the release of images that have been constructed for media use so that the public is aware as to the extent of the manipulation. 

I don't believe editors should really not manipulate photos because if its not true its going to start rumors and stories that everyone might and might not believe.

Some guidelines would be like only use photo montage to get a point across i would say a rather good point than a bad point and i would put a stop to manipulate something that people will believe that would be true.

I believe that these two photo montages aren't really gonna get their point across effectively  because their so many of them and people are already used to it and it really doesn't effect them as strongly as it should we see them the point comes across but then we see as a regular photo.

Some techniques that have been use in these photos well of course has to be photoshop. Some things that these images could have had is to use some more extreme words because some words that they use is already things that many people have seen.

Unit 7 Activity 1

• Briefly discuss why you think painters of the Victorian period might have criticized these early photomontages and why the pictures were popular with the general public. (This technique of piecing together separate images to create one picture is again very popular with both artists and the media). 
• What two reasons can you think of for this revival of an old technique? 

Painters might have criticized these early photomontages because there only using a camera while the painters are using their imagination and using paint and brushes, etc. The pictures were popular with the public because it was a new aspect with what their usual used too.

Some two reasons i can think of for this revival of an old technique my first reason is that using old techniques are better and captures everything and my second reason is that using new techniques aren't similar with the public.

Self Image : Activity 3

Consider some of the social pressures that you think may shape your behavior and personal image. List the images most commonly associated with the categories or ‘boxes’ you have already listed in Activity 1. 

How have you responded to social pressures to conform by adopting an appearance that relates to the categories that you feel you have placed in or have chosen? 

1. Reserved 
2. Shy and quiet
3. Being short
4. Short tempered 
5. Jealous easily


How i responded to social pressures to conform by adopting an appearance that relates to the categories that i feel i have placed in or have chosen is that we think that standing out is not 'normal' and instead of embracing standing out we conform with the others when we get placed into certain situations we than show our true colors and people see what we really are i can some how relate to that in class I'm categorized as being shy and quiet but that is inside class outside of class I'm this wild child but by now people know that i'am not this quiet reserve girl.
