Annie Liebovitz

Annie was born in 1949. She was born in Conneticut. She has three children. When Annie was taking pictures, she was daring at what she did; like the poses she told people to do, what kind of weather she took pictures in, and what she told celeberties to do. She ws really good with her lighthing. She took pictures of famous people, like Donald trump for example. She also took nude pictures of people. People say that she was really good at what she was doing.
The way that she got into Rolling Stone was because she was a staff there, then a producer asked her to take some pictures and he was very impressed at what she had done. In 1983, Leibovitz left Rolling Stone and began working for the entertainment magazine Vanity Fair. While working for "Rolling Stone", Leibovitz became more aware of the other magazines. Leibovitz is noted for her use of bold primary colors and surprising poses. Many of her Rolling Stone covers have become collector's items

Typography

These are the pictures I have taken in photography class. We Leared on Helvetica. The teacher let us do desgign with fonts on two poets, Lewis Jenkins, and Connie Wanek. It was really fun to work with all the fonts and see what a picture can look like when you change the contrast and add things to it. This was a very fun projecct.

Best Picture

My peom was Honesty by Connie Wanek. And I took pictures of two people doing pinky promises. It represents that they are honest and loyal to one another and wont tell anyone there secret. And the color in the backround represents how bright there friendship is to eachother. Not all black and gray. Its colorful.

Helvetica

People who deal with Helvetica are called typography. People dont ususlly know what typography is. Its just like dealing with font, and printing with type. Helvetica is everywhere in our lifes, when we go to target, bus stops, subway's, in the school, billboards. Just about everywhere you go, you will experience Helveitca.
Helvetica's message is this: you are going to get to your destination on time; your plane will not crash; your money is safe in our vault; we will not break the package; the paperwork has been filled in; everything is going to be OK.
People use Helvetica in magazines and newspapers, it makes the magazine and newspaper look formal and representive.

Slide Show

These pictures are the pictures I edited from my photographer Helen Levitt. I used photoshop on the items in my Slide Show. I enjoy working with my photographer because she has interesting pictures of what was happenening during the time. When I was working on these pictures I had fun because of all the interesting pictures my photographer had to offer.

My Picture and Homage

This picture is paying homage to my photographer, Helen Levitt because when she does her pictures in black and white, she likes to darken the image on the picture. She also likes things to stand out. There is always a purpose in her pictures. Like kids playing around, they are doing what they want to do, Helen doesn't tell them.
When I look at Helen's pictures, I see a lot of kids in the neighborhood. There are pictures of grownups just doing whatever, but what i notice is that there are more pictures of kids.
