Skinner: Final Project Proposal

Liz Skinner
Photo 202 final proposal


1.     For my final photography 202 project I want to show the most eye-catching architecture within my daily travels. From the Centre County area to my travels home for thanksgiving break I want to capture my favorite pieces that I pass by every day. I want to make places appeal to others and have their architecture stand out the most.
2.     I want to photograph the elements that make up architecture and what makes them so eye-catching to everyday viewers. I want to show the most important parts of places and have the viewer understand the importance of these places to others. 
3.     I plan on revisiting the subjects over the last few weeks of classes after I get feedback on my first few weeks of images to improve upon angle, what to cut out of photos and how to make the areas and buildings more appealing to the eye.
4.     Any viewer besides me will care to spend time with the images because for any architecture student it will become second nature to look at these buildings and pull out the important aspects of each building and what makes it appealing to the eye. But for a person who is not educated on buildings and bridges over what aspects make them the most important, I will try to extenuate the small details to make them the most visible to others.
5.     Challenges I am anticipating running into with this project is the weather not being so sunny and clear. I am also worried about is not being able to capture a story to people who are not familiar with the area, I am worried they will not understand the importance of the images. I want the images to appeal to everyone and have the viewers think how the architecture of these subjects are important and make each area that I visited unique to itself.

Shuyao Wang's final project proposal

I want to photography the benefits and beauty of things especially the landscapes in the morning. I intend to photograph it because I really enjoy the morning in a day, because of the fresh air, healthy lifestyle, most beautiful views in a day. But I find that many of my friends and even me sometimes prefer to stay up late and get up nearly at noon. Thus, we miss the whole morning and couldn’t have a choice to feel the benefits of morning. I think it is not good and bad for our healthy. And we couldn’t understand  important of morning more and more after we continuing following the wrong track. I hope to use this time to  photography morning and its beauty to convey the feeling of morning in a day give me and show the advantages of morning to remind myself the importance of morning. I think it can also be a strong prove to the people who couldn’t understand the importance of morning its benefits. The factual pictures may be a better choice than verbal words.  I plan ...

Leamy: Final Project Proposal Revisited

Final Proposal              For my final project, I intend on following a similar vein from my style project and photographing homes that have a sense of personality and uniqueness to them, specifically in State College, Philadelphia, Downingtown, and West Chester. I want to photograph this subject because I personally find homes very appealing and I think they have extreme potential to tell a story to a viewer that perhaps would have been unexplored otherwise. Furthermore, I want to address the discrepancies present among different towns and their houses (State College versus living spaces in Philadelphia versus another suburban areas of Downingtown and West Chester). I think that the photos could work well in conversation with one another in sharing more about a town and perhaps the people that may live in that area.              I intend on visiting...

Garrett Curfman revised proposal

Garrett Curfman Final project proposal Photo 202 For my final project I have decided to take photos of city atmospheres. This includes the backsides of building, and items that reflect a “backstage” view of the atmosphere. I chose to do this because I love cities. New York City is my favorite place. Myself alone in the maze of concrete buildings and seeing all the unique aspects of the city get me inspired to create. There is so much personality and stories to be told by the streets and buildings that I pass every day in downtown State college.  I have photographed buildings, streets, alleys, and different items found in the city environment that further reflect where the photos are taken. I met a few challenges when creating this project. One was the weather. It has been a cold few weeks so the amount of time I spent outside was much smaller than I anticipated. Another is locations. I have broadened my horizons and find new places that I haven’t photog...
