The Plight Of A Vertical Photograph In A Digital World: An Ipad News App Solution, Thomas Alexander Halsey Palmer Syracuse University

The Plight Of A Vertical Photograph In A Digital World: An Ipad News App Solution, Thomas Alexander Halsey Palmer

Photography - Theses

As a concept designer for Hearst Corporation's first iPad news app, the author developed solutions for displaying vertical photographs in the tablet format -- just as they have been authoritatively published in traditional news print designs. This thesis also reveals that the lack of vertical integration in newspaper home page design has been widely unaddressed, according to media experts. This formative period of tablet design has provided the author an opportunity to advocate for the vertical photograph's vital role in photojournalism.

Reimagining The Silver Screen: Contemporary Film Stills, Kyle Demartino

Senior Honors Projects

During the late 19th century longer rolls of celluloid photographic film, and motion picture cameras were first introduced, which allowed for the capture of rapid sequences of still images at a relatively high speeds. The first films shown to audiences on a larger screen, although rudimentary, caused people to gasp or run from the cinema, as they believed the images on screen were real. As technology increased feature films progressed from only showing a simple static event to creating full stories spanning over various sets and containing multiple characters. With the advent of sound, filmmakers were given another tool ...

Ignite: A Promotional Magazine For Liberty University, Rachel E. Deas

Senior Honors Papers

For my senior thesis I received special permission to do a project instead of a paper. I named my magazine Ignite, and it is a promotional magazine. The magazine target audience is primarily high school juniors and seniors who are interested in attending Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia. I completely designed the magazine from beginning to end, with the exception of the photographs. The photographs used are ones approved by the Liberty University Marketing Department that the author has permission to reprint. This way, if Liberty University decides to add this publication to their line of products the school already ...

Many Worlds Converge Here: Vision And Identity In American Indian Photography, Alicia L. Harris University of Nebraska - Lincoln

Many Worlds Converge Here: Vision And Identity In American Indian Photography, Alicia L. Harris

Theses, Dissertations, and Student Creative Activity, Department of Art and Art History

Photographs of Native Americans taken by Frank A. Rinehart at the Trans-Mississippi and International Exposition in 1898 were then and continue to be part of the construction of indigenous identities, both by Anglo-Americans and Natives. This thesis analyzes the ramifications of Rinehart’s portraits and those of his peers as well as Native American artists in the 20th and 21st centuries who have sought to re-appropriate these images to make them empowering icons of individual or tribal identity rather than erasure of culture.

This thesis comprises two sections. In the first section, the analysis is focused on the ...

Dreaming In Analog: The Marriage Of Vintage Photographic Process And The Contemporary World., Lynn M. Lee

Mid-America College Art Association Conference 2012 Digital Publications

"Dreaming in Analog: the marriage of vintage photographic process and the contemporary world" discusses a choice in the photographic arts. That choice is, by many contemporary artists, to take a step back. Slow down. Revisit analog photography as it was originally used. However, because of the fast-paced world in which we live, even these slow, lovely processes are able to be created, completed and shared globally via digital technology and the Internet.

Public Patterns: An Exploration Of The Use And Control Of Public Spaces, Johannes Santen

2012 AHS Capstone Projects

Traditionally, photographs have represented single moments in time, but the photographs in this series represent a compression of discrete moments into a single frame, in a way similar to Peter Funch's Babel Tales series. In each of my images, I've combined up to eighteen different photographs, taken of the same location over a period of about thirty minutes, to create a digital tableau. After removing all human figures from the scene using bits and pieces of several photos, I repopulated the composite with individual characters selected from the original series of photos.
