November Post
This month I started working in the studio again. I didn't do much just putting things together and helping Jack clean up his office area. Here are some photos of that:

[ This is a photo of all the orders that I had to put together for Claremont High's football team.]
[ This is Jack's office.]
[ This is one of the cupboards that I had to clean out, unfortunately I don't have an after photo.]
Overall, this month was pretty uneventful in terms of work and such, hopefully December is less dull.

October Post
This month I really started doing things in ROP: Digital Photography, one of the assignments that I accomplished this month was the leading lines and having a subject, so below I have a photo of Christine Navarro's feet on a leading line.
The next big thing that I worked on with the camera and in Photoshop was the rule of thirds position in photos. Rule of thirds is really just the positioning of the subject in the photo to make it interesting. When working with the rule of thirds it's better to have the main subject off to the side of the photo instead of dead center. I took a photo of a lady bug to to demonstrate that:
[Right here I decided to crop the picture, adjust the brightness, and put the photo into grayscale.]

[For this photo I had to crop a bit to get the lady bug into the rule of thirds position]
Finally, the most recent thing that I did in ROP was kind of put together the two things and take a photo that is in rule of thirds and has a leading line. For this I decided to take a photo of Lupe Lara:
[I cropped this photo of Lupe into a rule of thirds position and the leading line is the main one that she's standing on]
Overall, ROP is running really smooth right now and I'm getting a lot of practice with the camera and Photoshop. Uhm, that's it for now.

Blog 2: Summer Mentorship Component
Literal:
1. (Know) Log of specific hours with a total and a description of your duties.
The hours that I completed for the summer can be viewed here.
2. Contact Name & Number
Jack Bohlka
Studio: 909.981.6318
Mobile: 909.228.4824
3. (Need to know) What questions were raised because of the 10 hours experience? List them.
Why is it so important to have two of everything when going to a photo shoot?
Why do we need a light when we're doing a photo shoot outside?
Is it always difficult working with small children in family sessions?
Interpretive
4. What is the most important thing gained from this experience? Why?
I think the most important thing I gained from this experience is the knowledge that it's important too keep track of client orders because a past client could call and ask for the same type of package they ordered a year ago , so it's good to know where that order is in order to know what they're talking about specifically. It's also good to keep track of past orders because then everything is organized and you don't have to search everywhere for them.
Applied
5. How did what you did help you choose a topic. Please explain.
Most of what I did during my mentorship, I don't think really helped in my decision on my topic, if anything it kind of hindered it; but I think that the one day where I actually went to a photo shoot helped me decide that this is what I want to do because everything I helped with and observed made me realize that there is a lot that I don't know and a lot that I can learn as I continue to work on this topic.
