Week four due February 24, 2010

Photography V:
Find three websites that function as portfolios for Artists using photography as their main medium. Post a link to each artist's on-line portfolio.
Then for each artist answer the following:
1. What functional elements do they use in the structure of the website (statement, how work is divided up, navigation, what is on home page, scrolling or no scrolling, any other functional element)?
2. What design features can you name (font, color, form, font colour, decorative elements)?
3. What does this presentation itself say about the artist (without taking into account the work or resume) ?
4. What do you like about the website and what do you dislike about the website?

Then, post any three RECENT images of your own. State why you selected each of the three images.

Photography IV:
Repeat the directions from week three. Pick three new images from masters-of-photography.com. PLEASE, limit yourself to ONLY what is available on the masters-of-photography.com website. (These images do NOT need to be in current exhibitions, only that they are posted on this one website) You may select images from the same photographers or pick three different photographers. Pick the three because each image "strikes" you. And, of course, post three RECENT images of your own and state why you selected each of those images.

Then, after you have all six images posted for week four, go back to week three and look at each of the three images you selected from Masters-of-photography.com for last week. Without deleting what you have already written, add to week three's post and now write why YOU think they are amazing images that deserve to be in the archive of "masters". State EXACTLY what makes these images amazing.
