It was asked, and here are some more links to portraits, both executive and environmental. Pay attention to the way the light is balanced between ambient and the flash, as well as the quality of light.

UPDATE - Executive Portraits
To upload your portraits, save all your HTML and images into a folder named "071023" - there isn't a link for that yet on your sites, but I'll add one this evening.
Forgot to do that in my rush out the door last night, my apologies.
Plan on uploading or re-uploading at the start of class on Tuesday. I clicked something wrong and ovewrote any files that had been uploaded. I'll make it up to you next week, somehow.

Photo Opp
Prof. Jim Biddle in Telecomm is looking for someone to do a shoot in Atlanta on Friday, October 19. A local will be interviewed on CNN, he'd like some stills shot. No immediate payment, but the images may be used for a future TV production, so there could be some later.
Let me know if you're intrigued.

Future Assignments
A quick run-down, always subject to alterations:
- Tuesday, October 16: Practice audio
- Thursday, October 18: Health and Medical, first edit (3-10 images)
- Tuesday, October 23: Executive portrait (2-5 images)
- Thursday, November 1: Environmental portrait (2-5 images)
- Thursday, November 8: Health and Medical, final package
- Thursday, November 15: Conceptual portrait (2-5 images)
- Tuesday, November 20: Day in the Life of a Photojournalist (8-12 minutes)
- Thursday, November 28: General News (3-5 images)
Assignment: Audio
For Tuesday, October 16: Two separate mini projects ...
First, choose a subject and do an interview with them. You'll need to be able to edit together a brief piece where they introduce themselves, tell us their hometown and major and then say something about their hometown.
The second part is to practice recording natural sound. Look for an opportunity to record ambient, background (long) sound and several instances of close-up/detail sound. Subject matter isn't as important as identifying good sound from a given situation.
We'll be working with Audacity, the audio editing software, on Tuesday.

Petit Le Mans photos
All the laptop files have been moved to the server in the lab. You can log on, open the 3710 folder, then the Petit folder and you'll see your images (broken into folders by shooter).
Ask the lab attendant for the DVDs that are out back to burn onto - will take too many CDs for most of you. (You can do about 4.5 GB on a DVD.)
For Thursday, please have 5-10 images from the workshop posted. We'll be reviewing features and portraits on Tuesday and starting to talk about audio.

Also Need a Carpool
I need a carpool too! I somehow missed how this worked in class, or something (did we even get around to talking about it, other than the "there are limited passes" speech?)
I'm looking to carpool Friday and Saturday, but I have to be back in Athens to shoot something at 8 pm on Friday night. Saturday is whatever. I don't mind driving if someone wants to kick in for gas. I drive a truck so I can take two other people max (if one is skinny), and I have a steel toolbox in the back I can lock valuables in if that's a worry.

Shooting Opportunity
Passing this along ...
My name is TJ Adeshola and I am a graduate student/teaching assistant in Grady. I had the pleasant opportunity of speaking with you last Thursday regarding photography for a live jazz/poetry event entitled "Soul Libations". The event will be on October 18th at the Winery downtown, from 7-9 pm. I am writing you in hopes that you would do us the honor of informing any students interested in doing freelance photography for the event ... Anyone interested can reach me any time before October 10th at soul.libations@gmail.com, or taylor34@uga.edu. They can also call me at (423)255-1884. Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to speak with me and I look forward to the opportunity of working with your students.
