Photographer name: Alyssa Schukar

List three problems that the judges note with the portfolio -
The judges said a lot of the photos were depressing and they would like to see more optimism, they said all the photos were shot at the same distance, the also said this photographer used the same lens.
List two things the judges like-
One judge said he really liked the picture with the man sweeping garbage with a shovel, he said he loved the pastel background and all the colors. Another judge said the one he really liked and his favorite was the one with the girl who fell down on the track while doing hurtles.
What is your overall impression? What did you like or not like?
 My overall impression was that I liked a few of the pictures, and I like how she caught the emotion of some people in her photos but overall I didn't like them. I found them very boring. The judges were right all the photos were almost the exact same, all shot at a certain distance. She didn't get in any special views. Nor did she try to move the camera around at all. I didn't like it all that much honestly.

What did the judges note as strengths as they were critiquing it?


 Color, composition, tight, very good positioning.

What do you see as strengths? Do you see any weaknesses?
 As for strengths, I like a really big was is how he takes his pictures and the angles he gets in make it seem like your actually in the photo. He makes his photos seem like your a person and your seeing what he sees, if that makes sense. 


Contest recap video

Briefly describe the process the judges went through in deciding the winner.
How the judges chose the winner, is the call out the number of the photo and they all go around talking what they liked or didn't like about the photo. If there are too many photos that they didn't like about the photographers then that photographer is out, until they finally found the one they liked.

Parts 1-6 

1. Describe one photo that you agree with the judges on. Explain why you and the judges do or do not like it.

 The photo of the racing goats I think is what they are in part 5-best student image. They said the background wasn't that good. The fence bars behind the animals were mergers. I didn't like it.

2. Describe one photo that you do NOT agree with the judges on. Explain why you think the judges are wrong.  

I disagreed with the first photo of the first video. The one of the race car. I actually think the photo was rather good, and the photographer had the camera positioned in the right place. I didn't think it was nothing I thought it was pretty cool, and you can tell how incredibly fast the race car driver was going. I liked it.
