  1. PhotoImagery

  2. Fake or foto?

  3. JERRY LODRIGUS • Anything’s okay if the purpose is art • People have been making things up since the invention of language: it’s called fiction! • Photography is inherently subjective ANYWAY • As long as the artist doesn’t try to mis-represent what they are doing and their methods are completely explained, photo-manipulation is OK

  4. POLITICAL MANIPULATION

  5. JOURNALISTIC MANIPULATION

  6. “We shouldn’t be concerned” • Tyler: like we all read and know, we are in a day in age where everyone knows that basically everything in the media (and quite often everywhere else) is/has been/can be manipulated. • Tanner: I don't think we should look down on digital editing.....it's an art form in and of itself. It is very time-consuming so we should respect those who can do that. • Ashlee: I think that havoc is in the eye of the beholder as a person who likes to tinker I think its an expansion of creativity

  7. Alexa: Keeping it in context and being a smart viewer is important to remember, pictures today can lie as much as stories can.

  8. “We should be concerned” Kasey: People trust the news and photographs and if its so easy to manipulate then that means people can easily be manipulated when they trust these photos. Tera: when people alter photos in order to distort the image in a way that brings false pretences – then I believe that is when the institution of photojournalism is weakened. Monica: digital manipulation can be fun as long as it's used for entertainment and is not trying to be misleading when the purpose is to make it truthful.

  9. ERIN:It really makes me upset to think that these news mediums that we trust have the capability to alter their photographs or videos. But than again they can alter their stories just by what they are telling us. I think this argument was really emphasized by Jerry Lodriguss when he stated “Just as a writer enhances his factual stories with metaphor and adjectives, photographers can enhance their images with digital techniques such as contrast and color enhancement.” Because of these reasons it is important to question what you see and research using other sources to find the most accurate information

  10. HIGH DYNAMIC RANGE IMAGING

  11. NEWS MAGAZINE COVERS Is it ok to editorialize?
