Abstract

Deze praktische gids, voor beginners én gevorderden, bevat drie uitgebreide hoofdstukken met de volgende onderwerpen: foto's nemen, beeldbewerking en uitvoer en opslag. Elk hoofdstuk bevat een aanzienlijke lijst met onderwerpen - die telkens op twee pagina's - compleet uit de doeken gedaan worden. Aan de hand van heldere teksten en ondersteunende foto's in kleur krijgt de lezer voldoende informatie om meteen met de eigen camera en/of pc aan de slag te gaan. Met deze drietrapsraket toont dit kleurrijke boek het totaaltraject van digitale fotografie: van camerakeuze tot cameratechniek, van ruw bestand tot prachtig eindresultaat en tot slot een adembenemende afdruk en/of presentatie. Het boek is overzichtelijk van opzet en tot in de puntjes verzorgd. Deze uitgave geeft een goed beeld van wat digitale fotografie op dit moment te bieden heeft. Achterin bevindt zich naast het register een woordenlijst en een lijst met interessante websites. Daardoor verdient het zeker ook de rol als volwaardig naslagwerk.

Abstract

"It is a long-held truism that 'the camera does not lie'. Yet, as Mia Fineman argues in this illuminating volume, that statement contains its own share of untruth. While modern technological innovations, such as Adobe's Photoshop software, have accustomed viewers to more obvious levels of image manipulation, the practice of "doctoring" photographs has in fact existed since the medium was invented. In "Faking It", Fineman demonstrates that today's digitally manipulated images are part of a continuum that begins with the earliest years of photography, encompassing methods as diverse as overpainting, multiple exposure, negative retouching, combination printing, and photomontage. Among the book's revelations are previously unknown and never before published images that document the acts of manipulation behind two canonical works of modern photography: one blatantly fantastical (Yves Klein's "Leap into the Void" of 1960); the other a purportedly unadulterated record of a real place in time (Paul Strand's "City Hall Park" of 1915). Featuring 160 captivating pictures created between the 1840s and 1990s in the service of art, politics, news, entertainment, and commerce, "Faking It" provides an essential counterhistory of photography as an inspired blend of fabricated truths and artful falsehoods."--Publisher's website

Abstract

"After photography" examines the myriad ways in which the digital revolution has fundamentally altered the way we receive visual information, from photographs of news events taken by ordinary people on mobile phones to the widespread use of image surveillance. In a world beset by critical problems and ambiguous boundaries, Fred Ritchin argues that it is time to explore the possibilities created by digital innovations and to use them to understand our rapidly changing world. Ritchin investigates the future of visual media as the digital revolution transforms images into a hypertextual medium, fundamentally changing the way we conceptualise the world. Simultaneously, the increased manipulation of photographs makes photography suspect as reliable documentation. In the tradition of John Berger and Susan Sontag, Ritchin analyses photography's failings and reveals untapped potentials for the medium

Abstract

The advent of the image-oriented computer in the mid-1980s is having a radical effect on the central place of photography in visual culture. What does this new technology of images mean for the ways in which we encounter and use images in everyday life: in advertising, entertainment, news, evidence? Within our domestic and private worlds, how does it influence our sense of self and identity, our view of the body and our sexuality? Are we now entering a post-photographic era? The Photographic Image in Digital Culture examines and questions the impact of digital technologies on the importance of the photographic image. Contributors investigate such issues as the representation of the body, surveillance and pornography; the role of images in the processes of memory, history and identity; popular myths of digital futures and technological utopias; the forms and conventions of new media; photography's place within image technologies and its continuing relationship to documentation, art, the imagination and political change
