Photojournalism: An Ethical Approach

`Helewidis:iconHelewidis: reports, January 10
If you click the link (title) you'll be directed to an online edition of a book originally published by Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, Publishers, Hillsdale, New Jersey, 1991: Photojournalism An Ethical Approach by Paul Martin Lester.

I consider it food for thought and reflection about photojournalism and ethics and thus would like to share it with you.

Now follows an excerpt to lure you into reading the full version:

A photojournalist is a mixture of a cool, detached professional and a sensitive, involved citizen. The taking of pictures is much more than F-stops and shutter speeds. The printing of pictures is much more than chemical temperatures and contrast grades. The publishing of pictures is much more than cropping and size decisions. A photojournalist must always be aware that the technical aspects of the photographic process are not the primary concerns.

A mother crying over the death of her daughter is not simply an image to be focused, a print to be made, and a picture to be published. The mother's grief is a lesson in humanity.

If the photojournalist produces a picture without a thought for her tragedy, the lesson is lost. But if the photographer cares for her loss, is made more humane, and causes the readers to share in her grief, photojournalism has reached its highest potential.

Despite its frustrations and low moments, the lesson of humanity is why photojournalism is an extremely rewarding profession. For that reason, photojournalism is worthy of the best thought and actions possible by its participants.

Create-a-Villain Contest!

~zsabreuser:iconzsabreuser: reports, July 12

Create-a-Villain Contest!

It's a very cool contest, and it's very simple!
You have to create a what would be RockStar ( [link] ) villain!

The rules for it are simple:
-Design an original villain (by original I mean that it must be your own thing, not a naruto world ninja, and etc, just to make clear).
-You can enter the contest as many time as you wish, if each entry is different, of course!
-A single entry can also be a couple (for example EVIL TWINS) a team, (Like Psycho Rangers, for example) and so on!

So I guess the rules are pretty free!

THE PRIZES
-The TOP ONE winner will have their own villain make in the RockStar comic! (if the comic itself wins, of course)
-For each 10 entries, there will be a free completely finished (like this poster) drawing, so if 30 people sign up, 3 prizes!

Entering
-You can send your entry in any of the following: Notes, private messages on zuda site, emails (cervellesantos@gmail.com)
-How many entries as you want! At any time!
-You can enter concept art, ref sheets, texts, anything! You can also enter both art and text if you want, like brief explanations of his story and powers maybe?
-Entries accepted until July 31th!

Have fun!!

Is the design just what the character looks like? Or are we supposed to provide some sort of information too?

It's your pick! Addition info is appreciated so that in case your villain is picked, I have some leads, though it's not necessary at all!
