Copyright permissions, legal and ethical.

What is Copyright?
Copyright is when you gain permission for somebody's intellectual property i.e ideas, logos
If we do not get copyright then we can get sued for using something that does not belong to us.


Why is Copyright important?
Copyright is important for my photography in case I want to add any other assets as I do not was to breach any copyright laws called Copyright infringement.

Avoiding copyright issues
-Release and Consent forms
-When taking the picture make sure it is being framed to the certain object you -want in your photograph
-Gaining permission is not just about the people you want to use in your photographs it is also about getting permission for locations which are private land. To know if the Location is public or private we will have to research the location first. 
- When taking photographs in public busy areas you don't use the telephoto lens as the telephoto lens is a good way to zoom in so that would be against the law.
-Photographs of private land can be taken from public land.
-Do not take photographs of children that we don't know.
-Make sure the models knows what you are taking a photograph for (What is the intention) 

When taking a photograph remember these 2 things:
Who is in the photograph?
Is it public land or private?

Legal and Ethical
The reason we have to think about representations because you cant represent people a negative way such as different races, religion, age, gender, class, ability and disability which would create a negative stereotype. (Misrepresenting (negative) a model can be defamatory- This means you are showing the model in a certain way which isn't  real)

Identity Photography ideas

These are some images that I have found on the internet, these photographs are all related to the theme of identity, I have chosen these certain photographs as they are similar the idea of hidden identity which I would like to use in my work. Researching these types of photographs shows me that the best camera technique to use is a Portrait to get the best photograph.

Martin Pain is a extremely talented photographer when taking sport photographs, this is because he uses a fast shutter speed this is when the shutter on the camera quickly opens and closes, this is good for capturing motion in photographs and also making it clear.



Photograph Analysis:

Photographic Category - The category of this photograph is sports, sports photography is good for capturing emotions and action that would normally be too fast to see during the sport.


Purpose - The purpose of this photograph is to capture Jessica Ennis winning the race, this would be used online, magazines and newspapers, this is because this would be a big news story in the media because Jessica Ennis is representing the United Kingdom which is a big deal when watching the Olympics.

Image analysis - This is a Landscape photograph which has captured the emotions on the face of the runner who is Jessica Ennis, the emotion on her face which also like the last picture is extremely happy and overwhelmed this connotes that she is proud of what she has achieved. This photograph connotes that Jessica Ennis is running in to victory as she has already risen her arms in the air as a way to celebrate. The techniques the photographer has used to get this really good photograph is, shallow depth of field, this is effective as it blurs out the background which is the crowd, this make the front object which is Jessica Ennis in focus which makes her the main focal point of the photograph. This image also has the rules of thirds, which also makes Jessica Ennis the main focal point as she is central of the photograph which connotes that she is the winner. The photographer has also used low aperture, this makes the photograph clear. I think the shutter speed used to take this photograph is 1/250 this means the the speed of the shutter speed was fast to get a clear photograph of the fast moving objects. I think the ISO used to capture this image is

Meaning - The meaning of this photograph is to show Jessica Ennis running in to victory as she has her arms up in the air which connotes that she is celebrating winning the sport in comparison to the competitors running behind her which has a determined look on her face which connotes she still wants to win the race. The emotion on Jessica Ennis' faces connotes that she is relieved that the race is over and she has won, she also has a look of pride in her face the connotes that she is pleased to win the race as she is representing her country.

Photography Analysis:

Photographic Category - The category of this photograph is landscape photography, landscape photography is good for capture a wide verity of the landscape.

Purpose - The purpose of this photograph is to juxtapose the grey dark colours against the bright green grass. This photograph would be used online this is because many people love to look to see the world from different perspective.

Image analysis - This photograph is a landscape this is good to see a wide area of the field, this is also makes the trees in the centre of the photograph significant as we can see the empty space around them which creates a neglected scene as the trees look powerless compared to the mass land surrounding them. The techniques the photographer has used to get this really good photograph is, deep depth of field, this is effective as it makes the whole photograph in focus which makes every detail stand out. This photograph is taken from eye level, this is to see this scene from a realistic perspective. The photographer has also used low aperture, this makes the photograph in focus. The lighting used to take this photograph is natural lighting because as we can see the photograph is taken outside. The shutter speed used to take this photograph is 1/60 this means the speed of the shutter speed was average to get a clear photograph.

Meaning - The meaning of this photograph could be to show the vulnerability of the bunch of trees standing together in the middle of an empty field, this could also have another meaning as it could connote that standing together makes them strong rather than alone where as they are easy to break, this could refer back to human life as working as a team in life always make the difference. This photograph is also to show the natural beauty of the outdoors which I think many people are interested to see.

Meaning - The meaning of this photographs to show the details on the frog, this is significance as the frog is extremely small this shows its in its early stages of life which also significant in comparison to a an adult frog which can normally be quite large.

Purpose - The purpose of this photograph is to capture the emotions on this mans face.

Image analysis - This photograph is a close up portrait of a man, the back ground of this man is blurred this is because the photographer has used shallow depth of field this is to make the man that is close to the camera be the main focus of this photograph. The techniques the photographer has used to get this really good photograph is, shallow depth of field, this is effective as it makes the foreground in focus, this makes it the main focal point of the photograph.
