Photographer Research

Don Mcculin
-He is a photographer who photographs imagery of war therefore, he is a war photographer
-He is a photojournalist
-Born October 8th 1935 so now he is 80 years old
-He left school at 15 without getting any qualifications
-He then signed up to the national service at the RAF and became a photographic assistant
-He then saved enough money u to buy his first camera which he then took his first published photograph from (Of The Guvners)
-Below are some of Don's photographs which really intrigues me. I like the one on the left because it shows the women emotions deply and i really empathise for her. It is an extremely emotional photo. Secondly, i choose the photo on the right as i like the image because it shows people jumping and leaping for there lives with smoke and people trying to kill them surrounding them whilst they are trying to run away. Its a moving and again, emotional image as it shows war imagery.


David Bailey

-Born January 2nd 1938
-He is an English fashion and portrait photographer

-He was called up to the RAF National Service army in 1956, in Singapore in 1957

-In August 1958 he wanted to pursue a career in photography and brought a Canon rangefinder camera
-1994 David set up David Bailey Photography which grew to become one of the most recognisable clients in the United States
-I choose this photo below on the left because i like the contrast of colours between the back and white and zebra pattern, it stands out and looks cool, quirky and different. Secondly, i choose the image on the right because i like the pose and position the model (Jean Shrimpton) is standing in and i like the way her hair is moving which makes the photo look different and unique compared to a usually posed photograph.


William Eggliston
-He is an American pop art photographer
-He was born July 27th 1939 so now he is aged 76
-He has won many awards such as; Hasselbrand Award, Guggenheim Fellowship for Creative Arts etc
-His work was credited with helping establish colour photography in the late 20th century as a legitimate artistic medium
-At Vanderbilt University he became taking photos after a friend recognised his artistic inclinations
-Hes received the Hasselblad Foundation International Award in Photography in 1998 and a Sony World Photography Award in 2013
-I choose the photo on the left because it interests me as i like the bright sky you can see outside of the plane window along with the red drink the person in the image is drinking, its clearly sunny  meaning they are going to a hot country as you can see the shadow on the table of the sun reflecting which makes me think this photos a happy joyful photo. Secondly, i choose the photo on the right because i like how there is a white man and a black man combined in one photo. It shows hows whites and blacks and divided and different and its a very powerful photo as it gives off a powerful message about segregation.


Martin Parr
-He is a british documentary photographer, photojournalist and phonebook collector
-He is known for his photographic projects that taken an intimate satirical and anthropological look at aspects of modern life.
-Since 1994 he has been a member of Magnum Photos and has had around 40 solo phonebooks published and has featured in around 80 exhibitions worldwide
-He wanted to be a documentary photographer from the age of 14 as his grandfather, George Parr is an ameteur photographer
-I choose this image on the left because it is a really cute photo of two young children standing infant of what looks like a beach and the sea in cute outfits, both holding ice creams with messy faces. The photo shows the young children enjoying a day out and enjoy live being young. Secondly, i choose the second photo because it the historical ruin behind the lady is one of the most memorable and amazing buildings left standing from ancient time and the lady/ tourist is taking a photo of what is n the completely opposite side to the historical building and her back is to it. It is a very funny and ironic photo which is why i like it.

Start of Unit 51

Today we started talking about Unit 51 and we looked at some website. There are different types of magazines for different people and different occasions. The most popular and common type is consumer magazines which are sold in newsagents. There are business/trade magazines which are magazines people read at work. Customer magazines are a form of marketing. Newspaper supplements are the type that you get given for free by people on the weekend. Partworks have a set of issues that you have to buy to collect them. Some people buy academic journals which are medical journals about medicine and doctors.

The best UK selling magazine is 'OK' magazine which is the TV genre which includes information, news and articles about celebrities, TV and TV stars, fashion, and health.

Magazine's have been around since a very very long time ago, since 1663 and before printers they were made manually using pencils, rulers and paint.

Evaluation of Advert

This is my evaluation of our 10 second advert.

-what happened
-why it happened
-did it turn out right
-how successful i feel my assign 3 went
-did what i planned in assign 2 happen in the advert
-why did it go well
-what did go to plan and why- our actor (son- jamie) obviously is very hard to cooperate with as he is a young child and it is hard to keep him focused for a long period of time whilst we were filming. he got very fidgety and so we had to cut out a few lines as he wasn't willing to say them and we didn't really want to use our contingency actor when it isn't necessary.
A few lines from our script weren't spoken, this is because

Group Meetings- 5

What we discussed?
-that we looked through our filming
-our already filmed footage

Whats been decided
-we are going to re-film Friday as our footage wasn't to a professional standard
-we will be using the same actors and the same location

Who attended?
Morgan, Liv and Abbie
