HDR Photography

cityscapered rock

1. Some manipulations to the camera you will need to make an HDR photo is the camera should have an AEB function and software that has HDR photo manipulation.
2. A camera that has AEB or HDR, a tripod, and software that has HDR manipulation.
3. A reason a person might use HDR is to show high contrast of a photo,  show more of the colors in a dull image, and or to prevent blown out highlights or flat shadows.
4. The multiple photos merged together will show more range of colors and will make the image sharper than if it is jus on image.

Movie Review Prep

1. I would expect to see Captain Philips, some of the more important crew members, and the Somalian Pirates.
2. I expect the plot to be about Captain Philips a little before the pirates take over the ship. Then the four pirates take over the ship. Then they destroy the boat the pirates were on. The crew members then take hostage of one of the pirates and try to escape. They tried to exchange the pirate for Captain Philips, but the pirates took Philips. Then people came to get Captain Philips. The three pirates who captured Captain Philips are then shot down and then Captain Philips gets saved.
3. This Story is so important because it lead to the decrease of Somalian pirate attacks.
4. The pirates tried to take the ship because it had Cargo on it.

1.Tom Hanks, Catherine Keener, Barkhad Abdi, Barkhad Abdirahman, and Faysal Ahmed.
2. PG-13
3. Paul Greengrass
4.Dana Brunetti, Michael de Luca, and Scott Rudin are some of the producers of this movie.
5. It won the Bafta Award for Best Actor in a Supporting Role and the Writers Guild of America Award for Best Adapted Screenplay
6. 55 million dollars
7. Most audiences liked it.
8. Most movie reviewers thought the movie was very well done.

Final Exam Preview

1. I have made a video on Youtube, on my phone, Snapchat, and a little bit on an old movie camera that uses cassettes.
2. A big difference using a GoPro or a DSLR camera compared to a phone is the options given compared to a phone and the image quality.
3. The video ideas will be my day at school, what I do the entire week, or how to cook something.
4. I could still images to show the passage of time or what to do for cooking.
5. Some audio I could use is music that I listen that fits into what is going on. Also me narrating what is happening.
