Stop Frame Photography

Softball Tournament 2011

The Assignment
Under the Visual Assignments, I found an assignment called Stop Frame Photography by Elizabeth Castillo, the same creator from my previous blog. :) The assignment read:

Take several pictures of one object movie. When the pictures are placed together it will show the movement of the object.

I’m going to try to use a video that I really like so that when the assignment is done, I can look back to the photo and remember what the video was about.

The Process
The process for this assignment is really easy. :)
I went to Facebook to check out if there was an interesting video of me.
After I found a perfect video, I screenshot-ed the moments that I wanted to include in the photo.
I used 4 moments and made it into a collage on Picasa so that it became a combined photo.

The Story
The actual video was taken during last year’s softball tournament when I was still in high school as a senior.
Every year, the girl’s softball tournament is held at my school and last year, my team became first place. So the video is when we were throwing our gloves into the air at the pitcher’s mound to celebrate it!!
I was in the softball team from 9th grade and I was really happy to be able to end my softball years with a first place trophy. :)

The Evolution Of a Story

This is a series of photos I took on two separate occasions that depict 1) the root of the story, 2) the story being reinterpreted, and 3) the story finally being retold and reinterpreted by others.

This story began when I was in Athens with my friend Alla. We stumbled upon some sort of changing of the guard, and Alla decided to join in the fun by reinterpreting their march. (She claims it was just the result of too much caffeine. Note the coffee she’s holding…) Later, when we were back in Spain with our friends at our favorite corner bar, Alla retells the story. (With a slight bit of exaggeration.)

My ds106 lawn (de-ds106′d)

It’s now autumn here in Melbourne, Australia. That means, the weather is wet, miserable and not the best for mowing. My ds106 lawn has become unkempt. Time for a trim. Time for visual assignment 108.
