Deconstruction of a Website

http://www.in.gov/lgov/

This is the link to Lt. Governor Becky Skillman's website.

This site is very well constructed. It is pleasing to the eye in reference to layout, font type, and font and background color. It is also easy to navigate, full of useful (rather than unuseful) information, and informative. Although it is not a website that someone might stop to look at upon passing it by (it is not crazy or exciting), it is one that when you are looking for information and come upon it, you will stay to gather what is necessary.

Video Idea

Purpose of the video: To sell a superior brand of chocolate

Who's the audience: 25-40 year old adults, anyone who likes chocolate, and/or anyone who is familiar with the movie "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory"

What's the video's "argument?": Our chocolate tastes like you've got a bar of gold

Arrangement of the "elements": Plain chocolate bar, dipped in gold, becomes the most deliciouse bar = refer to the golden ticket

Where will the video be "staged?": No specific staging is needed since the focus of the video will be on the chocolate bar itself

What special props are needed: A fondue fountain and a gold colored liquid that will cover a chocolate bar

Who will be in it: No one, it is focused on the chocolate bar

Nachtwey: 'Service we provide is awareness'

I completely agree with Mr. Nachtwey’s views on exposure and responsibility. If the problems of the world and of our own country are not exposed, then it would be just as though it isn’t happening. In turn, the problems could not be fixed. Journalists should assume a large part of the responsibility in reporting these truths since they are the ones who come across the problematic situations. If they do not report these incidences, then they are essentially ignoring it as though it wasn’t even there and thus leaving everyone else in the world knowledge less about the problems as well.

This is a photograph by Dorothea Lange. It depicts the Arnold children and mother on their newly fenced and newly cleared land. Note strawberry plants. Western Washington, Thurston County, Michigan Hill. Lange's purpose of photojournalism was equivalent to that of Nachtwey in that she wanted to expose the problems and plight of the world. She was so successful at doing so that her photographs taken of the Japanese Relocation after the Pearl Harbor attack were confinscated by the Army. This photograph is one of many examples of how she achieved this exposure factor. View more at http://lcweb2.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/f?fsaall:120:./temp/~pp_Z5gN:

Women in Flight, WWII

Painting the American insignia on airplane wings is a job that Mrs. Irma Lee McElroy does with precision and patriotic zeal Hollem, Howard R., photographer. CREATED 1942 August

Bowen and Olsen, a riveter and her supervisor, in the Assembly and Repair Dept. at the Naval Air Base, Corpus Christi, Texas Hollem, Howard R., photographer. CREATED 1942 August

Women are trained to do precise and vital engine installation detail in Douglas Aircraft Company plants, Long Beach, Calif. Palmer, Alfred T., photographer. CREATED 1942 Oct.

In analysis of these photographs of women working during World War II, we can see the obvious need for their hard work in the flight industry. The purpose I draw from these photographers is that they are showing how all Americans, especially women because they are not physically fighting the war, are helping the soldiers and thier country. The audience can be thought of as a broad mix of women, men, young adults, and industry leaders alike. Women may be targeted to get more of them involved so that they may feel patriotic too. Men, for the same purpose when dealing with those not already involved in battle, but those who are it shows them the supposrt they have at home by the women they love and left. Young adults as the audience will give them a sence of patriotism also by expressing to them the importance of thier country and its citizens. Industry leaders can be affected because these images show the hard work of women and thier devotion to the production necessary for thier counrty to be successful at war. The production choice set forth by these photographs appears to put the woman into perspective as being tiny compared to the huge object of production. This reinforces the idea that women who previously did not engage in these types of jobs were taking on a huge responsibility. They are also show in action and wearing "men's work" clothes. These incorporations express the idea of the womens extremely hard work and unending efforts. The photographers probably choose these aspects to reinerate thier purpose for taking the photograph and and its context.
