Jazz

History:

Jazz is a music genre that originated in African American communities of New Orleans, United States, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and developed from roots in blues and ragtime. Since the 1920s Jazz Age, jazz has become recognized as a major form of musical expression. It then emerged in the form of independent traditional and popular musical styles, all linked by the common bonds of African American and European American musical parentage with a performance orientation. Jazz is characterized by swing and blue notes, call and response vocals, polyrhythms and improvisation.

I love jazz for everything it represents for all the feelings you feel when you listen to it and also because it seems impressive to me as improvised.
I especially like jazz with saxophone and also Louis Armstrong

Synopsis:

Best Itali picture



This  photo wa taken in plaza Navona In the foreground is the source of the four rivers: the sculpture representing the river Ganges (Asia), holding an oar for its length as a navigable river, And at the bottom of the photo you can see the cathedral: Santa Inés en Agonía.

I chose this photo because I like the angle of the shoot, and the colors; The white color of the marble looks good with the gray of the sky.

Nick Brandt

portrait-nick-brandt_0.jpg


Nick Brandt (born 1964) is an English photographer who photographs exclusively in the African continent, one of his goals being to record a last testament to the wild animals and places there before they are destroyed by the hands of man.

wish that I had never had to take this photo.

The photo was taken as a deliberate visual echo of Elephants Walking Through Grass, a very different world - a vision of paradise and plenty - taken only a couple of miles away three years earlier.

But instead of a herd of elephants striding across the grassy plains of Africa, here we see only their remains: the tusks of 22 elephants killed at the hands of man within the Amboseli/Tsavo Ecosystem.

Shot types and camera angles

High angle: High-angle shots can make the subject seem vulnerable or powerless when applied with the correct mood, setting, and effects. In film, they can make the scene more dramatic. If there is a person at high elevation who is talking to someone below them.



Low angle:  The effect of the low-angle shot is that it makes the subject look strong and powerful.


Wide angle: Usually includes a lot of visual  information for the audience. Usually shot with a wide angle lens.






Two shot: is a type of shot in which the frame encompasses a view of two people



Medium shot:  is a camera angle shot from a medium distance


Sebastian Salgado


I have chosen this photograph of Sebastian Salgado because it seems a very spontaneous and very natural photo

It is a very nice photo where there are different kind of animals and many animals do not give that they make the picture, they are calm as if Salgado was one more

Star Wars identities

Star Wars Identities” is an exhibition. It moves from country to country. It is now in London. It is there until September 2017.
You can see the original Darth Vader suit, a Yoda puppet, and Han Solo in carbonite. Difficult words : exhibition ( an art show ), prop ( a thing used in a film ), costume ( clothes which make you look like something else ), puppet ( a moveable model ), Han Solo in carbonite ( a Star Wars material ).
