If your talking about the first task, it doesent say one pic each, but they need to fit on a4 paper, so wont be much of a room for meny pics each. I got vague view what i will write, so ill just make the pics matching them.
Its a 3 year vocational school for audio visual media studies and im trying to get to photography line, there are allso line for audio, video and stuff like making flash animations, but i dont need to do those other things. Idea is that people graduating are professionals enough to earn money and theyll teach stuff like handling your company etc allso, but naturally you could continue studying more, but thats more if you want to be a photograqphy critic some like that.
Yea this is huge assigment and will be hard to get all the pics, but hopefully ill make it
Yep i need to take pics that fit in those a, b, c and d parts of the first task and write a4 paper about. One really hard thing for me is to make the pics so that the teachers who judge them will have instant feeling of the task the pic is for, but i dont think it will be too much of a problem.
I dont think some courses have eny assigments like this you need to do before you get in, atleast they dont in here. naturally its bit different thing if your applying to school like this.
I think if you want to create real art from pics, you shouldnt think it in the point of view how to get the pic look like an art, but in the way how to capture the feelings, idea and the basics that make it art in the pic so that theyr easy to read from the picture.
I listened radio show from internet(its in fin so you cant understand it) yesterday and some gay guy was explaining one of his best photos(sounds like true piece of art to me). It was something like this, he was in country side with his boy friend on the lake and in the sauna, then the boyfriend went for a swim, it was a long pier(or is it the right word? enyways the thing you can go to water straight to deep part) and it was rainy day, but rain had stopped so it was bit misty. When hes boyfriend was end of the pier then came the rainbow, the guy went to get his camera and had a pic with his boyfriend end of the pier butt naked and the rainbow on the background
. Just wanted to write it for an example how real art photography is born, you cant think about what kind of art you want to shoot with a camera in your hands, those kind of situation just happen randomly mostly. Another example on the show (sauna again
) was when some lady(around 40 years old) was a little girl and they were saunaing with his dad at the countryside and his dad told the girl that this is the most beutifull view in the world(old sauna, moody light etc). After his dad had died she got the country cabinet from him, but had to sell it so she went to sauna and took pic out of the sauna window from inside, so that it was pretty dark inside and from the window you could see beutifull countryside in the summer. I hope you get the point on these.
And thanks for wishing me luck, now ill definetly get in
Ok I am kinda feeling dizzy because of this stupid flu I have but I think I understand more or less what you were trying to say here but I don't think I want to see that picture of a naked gay guy
it's just eww lol JK. I guess how you are feeling is very important when creating art and I guess how you are able to express your feelings through pictures or paintings or whatever reflects how good you are at it. I think that's why I like landscape photography so much because when I see a view very amazing and magnificent I would have this exciting feeling that I want to show in my pictures as well.

inches are some imaginary thing you americans use, so dunno
. maybe its something like that
haha I believe calling Canadians Americans would probably upset some of them
but it is true that Canada is very much like the US of A except people are usually nicer here.
Well A4 is the size of the paper you use in your HP printer and A3 is twice the size and A2 is the twice the size of a A3 paper and so on so the lower the number the larger the size of the paper it is. I believe those "standard" size photos are half the size of an A5 paper.

standard sizes are a1 a2 a3 a4 a5, a4 is most used, sizes of them goes so that a4 is double the size of a5 and a3 is double the size of a4 etc
I believe there is A0 papers too and they are HUGE!!!!!!! I have seen a printer that can print A0 sized prints and those are probably for use as billboards.
