Reys Photo Journalism Stuff

        I have already shot and done videos for my project, I documented the March For Our Lives walk to the capitol.         I am planning on going in order from start to finish of the March, and make it so the viewer feels like they went there with me. I have at least 6 minutes of video and around 600 photos to choose from that go from start to finish.         My plan is to have the pictures that go with the videos going in succession of the actual event. So I have videos of the beginning of the March where people are rallying and I want to put the videoclips in with the photos and go in chronological order from the start of the March to the end.        For narration I am planning on doing it in the beginning and saying what day it was, what the march was for, and how many people showed up. I want to stay away from saying anything on my political opinion, and just state the facts that are associated wit...

              LGBT+ representation in the media, specifically on your TV screens and in your local movie theaters has always been skim. Usually if there is a gay character they are seen as the "funny sidekick" or the "sad and repressed outcast". If there is a gay relationship it is over-sexualized and fetishized, such as in "Queer as Folk", "The L Word", and "Blue is the Warmest Color".          For me, I see this representation as extremely harmful. It hurts to see that that is how the media sees your community, that all we are to movie producers is a diversity card, or something they can use to sell more tickets or get higher ratings.        The worst part about queer movies is how we are sexualized on TV. Often times when they do this they aren't just sexualizing adults, they are sexualizing teens. This happens in more than one  queer TV s...

1. I want to write a controversial piece on LGBT+ representation in the media and on TV. 2. To keep the story relatable and provide examples with your opinion and to be specific with what I am writing. 3. Personal essays by definition contain a personal perspective. You should be there. Watch your construction. If every sentence begins “I”, you need to rephrase to provide a better rhythm and pace to your piece. Make connections. If you’re writing about a global theme (poverty, unemployment, child abuse) bring the subject closer to home by relating it to specific, individual examples. If you’re writing about more mundane subjects (left-hand turn signals, the search for the best French Fries, your daughter’s graduation) again, set your views against a wider backdrop or perspective so the reader can relate to it. Think of your essay as a camera lens. You might start by describing a fine detail (your personal experience or perspective, a specific moment in the narrative), then open u...

Did they address what the other side might think about their topic? No 5. Were they wishy-washy with their opinion? By this I mean did they ever go back and say well maybe if this were to happen, then their opinion wouldn't be valid. Support your opinion.

Are there any quotes in the story? No direct quotes.  7. Wh...

   1.)  The wikihow page explained in a step by step process with photos how to do the basics in iMovie. It started off telling you how to import files and how to make a new event for your video. Then it went into telling you how to stabilize your video to polish it off using the enhancements function. The next segment was about actually making your video and it went over how to add in transitions, photos, and things that will really help polish your video off.        On apple support it went over the basics again. This wasn't extremely in-depth and skimmed over a lot of the topics. It did not go through step-by-step on the process of actually making a video, but more focused on the individual tools you can use on the site. It covered what tools you could use for trimming, cutting, removing clips from the video.  2.) Tell me one thing that you already knew about iMovie that the website explained. I didn't know really anything about iMovi...
