Reflection #9

I am pretty close to finishing. I printed all the pictures I need, and I got my poster/cardboard. My next step is to start putting my project together. I also need to put my book together. And my bibliography is finally done, my sources were my interview, a book, and a website.

Annotated Bibliography

Vanderford, Jeff. Personal interview. 11 April. 2009.

When I interviewed Jeff, I learned a lot. He told me that it helps to

go to college and go to a school of Journalism. I also learned that

you should always keep a notepad and pen/pencil with you at all

times. Jeff gave me different tips, like if you want to submit a

picture in the paper, make sure you have the names of the people

in it, (they won't publish the picture without any names). I am

glad I got to interview Jeff, he gave me good information.



Skinner, Peter. Sports Photography and How to Capture Action

and Emotion. New York: Allworth Press, 2007.

From this sports book I learned a lot about how to capture

emotion, action, and choosing the right equipment.

I learned that when you takes pictures, it's good to look

for different angles of view. Also remember to have proper

etiquette (never get in player's line of vision or be distracting).

A really good tip I read was to consider the time of day (how light

will afect the picture).


Miracle, Rob. Sports Photography: A how-to and tip guide.

1996-2009. 2 May 2009. http://photo.net/learn/sports/overview.

From this website I learned different techniques. Sports photography

is all about timing. Its about reacting. Its about being in the right

place at the right time. You also have to be familiar with the sport to

be able to capture the moment. This means knowing where to

position yourself for the best action.
