Good morning everyone!

The best thing about yesterday’s critique for me was feeling like I had gotten to know a little bit about everyone in the class. The amount of thought and execution that everyone put into their portraits was very inspiring. They all stayed with me, and I literally fell asleep last night seeing your photographs in my head :)

If you weren’t able to attend the entire critique, the recording has been posted in Teachable.

There’s been a lot of talk about incorporating multimedia into your personal projects. I’m going to send you all a gigantic email with some thoughts/tips about recording audio. The important information is in the “Interview Tips” section, and I’d recommend reading that part if you’re planning on recording an interview with one of your subjects anytime soon.

I’m also planning to make a few short videos going over this information, so no need to read the email unless you are hungering for audio help:)

NEW IN TEACHABLE:

January Critique

I.N.S.P.I.R.A.T.I.O.N. . . !

Here is the recent 1st place series winner from LensCulture (the winning series was Year Book, but it looks like she only submitted the portraits). Her whole website is very interesting insight into rural Iceland: http://www.sosphotographs.com/portfolio.cfm?nK=19099&nS=0&pn=0

See you all next week!
