Digital Photography for Science (Hardcover)


Book Description

Photography is the primary tool for visually documenting specimens, experimental findings and laboratory setups in many scientific fields. Photographic illustrations in these fields must satisfy criteria of clarity, objectivity and adherence to accepted standards, in addition to a pleasant but not distracting composition and illumination. This book concentrates on the choice and practical use of digital cameras, lenses and related equipment of types commonly available at research institutions and museums. The described techniques are suitable for subject sizes between approximately half a millimeter and half a meter, and differ from those used in general photography and microscopy. The intended audience of this book includes professional scientific photographers, scientists and students who need to carry out photography in support of their own research or as part-time scientific photographers at a research institution, and advanced amateur photographers who wish to master these techniques.

Videojournalism


Book Description

Videojournalism is a new field that has grown out of traditional print photojournalism, slideshows that combine sound and pictures, public radio, documentary filmmaking and the best of television news features. This amalgam of traditions has emerged to serve the Internet's voracious appetite for video stories.Videojournalism is written for the new generation of "backpack" journalists. The solo videojournalist must find a riveting story; gain access to charismatic characters who can tell their own tales; shoot candid clips; expertly interview the players; record clear, clean sound; write a script with pizzazz; and, finally, edit the material into a piece worthy of five minutes of a viewer's attention. Videojournalism addresses all of these challenges, and more - never losing sight of the main point: telling a great story. This book, based on extensive interviews with professionals in the field, is for anyone learning how to master the art and craft of telling real short-form stories with words, sound and pictures for the Web or television. The opening chapters cover the foundations of multimedia storytelling, and the book progresses to the techniques required to shoot professional video, and record high quality sound and market the resulting product. Videojournalism also has its own website - go to just one URL and find all the stories mentioned in the book. You also will find various "how-to videos on the site. To keep up with the latest changes in the field such as new cameras, new books, new stories or editing software, check the site regularly and "like" www.facebook.com/KobreGuide.




Color Seminar


Book Description

This book chronicles artist Sanford Wurmfeld's now legendary color class, which he seeded, developed, and taught at Hunter College in New York City for more than two decades. The "Color Seminar" was geared to both artists and art historians alike, and Wurmfeld taught it each semester for twenty-five years, with his last class taking place in the spring of 2012, the year he retired. All told, more than 500 individuals participated in his elective course, and its extensive and continuing impact on contemporary art discourse, and on abstract painting in particular, cannot be overstated. From studios to classrooms, former students, now established artists in their own right, have been teaching their own interpretations of this course for years now in visual arts and curatorial programs across the country. Wurmfeld's new book begins with a discussion of afterimages and related experiments concerning the nature of color experience. It then works its way through theoretical ideas about color and the phenomenology of perception, finally ending with a discussion of color as content in 20th and 21st century abstraction -- what Wurmfeld terms presentational art -- with its emphasis on artists crafting the viewer experience through an active analysis of color. The book concludes with an exhaustive bibliography of additional resources for readers to continue their own self-directed research into color history and experience.
