"The Shadow" Photo Shoot One. Our School Environment


During Digital Art, we took pictures of the outside environment.

This picture is my favourite because it shows lots of different colours and objects, such as the school, the blue sky and, trees, shadows e.t.c.

This picture represents the school because it has the school in it.

I don’t think that there is anything that other people might not see.

This picture is unique because the shadow wouldn't always be in the same place as this one.

I named this picture “the shadow” because the lighting and where the shadow is will probably not be in the spot that it was in before.

I didn't have to do anything unusual to get the result that I desired.
I enjoyed taking these pictures. I also learned about the rule of thirds, which I didn't know about before!

Copyright


Copyright is fair because I wouldn't want someone to copy my work. I think that it is quite hard to understand sometimes and you would have to research what it is to get a full understanding. One thing that I found really confusing was what could be copyrighted and what couldn't. However, there are many good things about copyright. People can't cheat and stealing other people's work. You can only use up to 10% of the clipping or work. This is good is some way, but I think that we should be allowed to use more of the work if it is for a good reason. When the person passes away that copyrighted the work, it is still copyrighted for 70 years. I think that it should be copyrighted forever because someone else can get the credit for copying an idea that isn't original.
A band called Queen and David Bowie made a song that was number one in England for a long time. Vanilla Ice then took the base line from that song and made it "their song". Is that right?

In my opinion I think that school's should teach students what copyright is so that they understand how big the process of it is.
