4. It's okay to fix blemishes, and imperfections but I feel like you should not change their whole body unless the model doesn't even recognize that it is her.
5. It is usually not okay.
6. But it's okay if its the little things like imperfections. (pimples) It's not okay if she is big and you make her super small, and change her whole body and face.
7. Fashion Photography, is where they take pictures of people in certain types of clothes. While Photojournalism is where you take pictures of anything and you write about the photos you take.
8. How people in magazines, they don't really look like that, there is a process that they have to be "perfect" in order to be beautiful. But girls don't usually look like how they come out in pictures. They don't look like that is reality.
9. How it shows how crazy people expect girls to look like. What people do in order to make girls " Hot or Beautiful" and that they have to look a certain way. And how they change their bodies to make them acceptable in our society. And those videos are shown in the process of changing girls bodies and how dramatic people can go. Also how they use photoshop to completely change people.
10. Because i feels like it really doesn't usually matter on what guys look like. Not to seem sexist but i feel like girls are more of the "Stars" when it comes to advertisement. Because girls are used in so many things. Guys are definitely changed in photoshop, but they change more things about girls.

Magazines Part 2
Early Magazine Covers :
It seems that those magazine covers were based off of really old book inside covers. It has that ancient kind of look to it. That was probably the kind of look they were going for. It doesn't have many things that tell what it will be about. But it also is shows pictures of what you think it may have it it plus the title should give some information about it.
Pictures That Need No Words :
These types of covers explain them selves they show a lot of what will be shown or told when reading it. It shows what doesn't need to be explained. The photographers were very talented that they didn't need to have any kind of subheadings on the pictures, or by the pictures. They had a good amount of detail in the pictures, that the pictures spoke for themselves.
Pictures Married to Type :
These types of covers definitely advanced and they had more formal photos rather than drawings. It actually showed real people, and they had the more Photo shoot type of look. It was really nice looking, and they had subheadings and everything. The basically had more things to offer, rather than the Early Magazine Covers, which only had drawings. And they had no detail in them.
In The Forest of Words :
This is where covers turned into more modern covers. They had better quality in pictures, they looked very real, and they poked very nice as an overall look. It had came to be more nicer than all of the other types of covers, which looked ancient old, and or tacky. These kinds of covers looked more like there were filters in them and they had looked more formal type of covers.
My Favorite Cover
Brides, October/November, Get Inspired
This is one is one of my favorites because the woman on the right looks like Audrey Hepburn, and she is a very classy woman. But the cover is very fancy, elegant, and pretty. I noticed that the woman on the right has a very pretty looking dress that looks neutral. But the flowers add a nice pop of color to the picture. Also it is good because the idea of brides do not look tacky or ugly. Like I said elegant and beautiful. The two covers are different because the woman on the right is showing her body, yet the other just has a close up on her face. I say that the left is nicer because you can see her dress, hair flowers, and makeup. Yet both of the brides do both look very nice i would just rather prefer to see everything rather than a close up. It looks nicer in my opinion. I also notice that the cover on the right has a lot more subheading than the right cover. It has a lot more things around the picture because they probably wanted to fill it in. But since the rich cover is a close up, they only put a little, because then it would be over done and it would look like a really bad cover.

American Soldier
1.
A. I thought that this was powerful because it was 5 months since he went back to Iraq and his family and friends of Ian have seen him. Especially they were all their to Welcome him back thought it was very cute.
B.
Set # 1. At home in Denver : 1- 7
Set # 2. At Basic Training : 8- 29
Set # 3. In Iraq : 51 - 70
Set # 4. Back in Denver : 71 - 82
The most powerful set of photos was in Iraq, because it's in Iraq! It shows all of the things he had to so do during that time.
C. It shows all the things he had to go through, what it is really like to be in the Army and what you have to do in order to be in the Army. You have to train in the Army.
2.
A. In picture #63 Ian calls Ashley
B. The captions enhance the photos by letting the readers actually know what is going on instead of the readers trying to guess what is happening in the pictures.
3.
All of the soldiers mess around with each other by jumping on one another in a little dog pile. They just wanted to have some fun ties with their roommates.
Its finally lead up to him almost getting through his training. But was he ready to handle all of this?
The soldiers are in the arena practicing, just to be prepared at all times. They had to practice just in case if they were to be attacked or needed to go look around the premises.
