Coronavirus themed project

In this project, students were asked to create a project based on a single theme. I chose to do my project Coronavirus themed. As one can see, in the first photo there is a newspaper. I chose to take this picture as the media is where are eyes are all glued to, and we are always looking for any headlines suggesting the end of this pandemic. Next, I chose to photograph a lock as during the pandemic, state and local governments have forced U.S citizens into lockdown. Afterwards, I chose to take a picture of a lysol bottle because in an effort to deter the Coronavirus, humans are using several cleaning products to rid their households of this virus. Then, I chose to photograph a computer as most people have been forced to work from home on the computer and have been forced to use Zoom and CiscoWebEx to go to work. Scroll down a little further, and one can see some shots of NYC and a picture of a ocean, shoes, and grocery bags. The pictures in NYC were taken to represent social distancing as one can see NYC is essentially empty, the picture of the plane is to represent how open and aired everything is as humans must social distance, and the shoes represent how people are stuck at home and shoes are waiting to be worn. Lastly, the grocery bags in the mud room represent how one must leave their groceries away from the kitchen to make sure that the Coronavirus is truly gone.

Dancer Field Trip

Image
On October 1st, 2019 we traveled to New York City with the dancers. The drive took about an hour to go from Livingston, NJ to the city. Once we arrived, we went up to the high line and we began taking photos of the dancers. Specifically, the dancers began to engage in active motions like jumping and making abstract poses. Afterwards, we continued to the vessel, (the interesting structure that was recently built), and we ate lunch. There, I went to lunch with my friends Simon, Torin, Colin, and Matt. Afterwards, we continued to take photos of the dancers until around 2 pm in the afternoon.  In total, I took around 70 photos of the dancers,(which were very interesting). Afterwards, we went back to NA where we joined our last period classes.
