Curation update week 3

I want to first say that this is probably the greatest project I have ever done in my entire high school career. I feel like I can realy get down on details that I would normally just overlook and try and just get the passing grade.

I really feel like I need more videos about actual people using this equipment I am talking about. Hearing examples from real life users would make my curation a much more successful one in the sense that it will give the viewers a much better understanding that I cannot provide. I also want to start making the camera talk into much simpler talk that can be understood by even new comers who wish to learn about cameras and information about what to get and why.

The information I currently have has made great ground work for the future posts I plan to make. I feel it has been a long process that is simple, but still demanding. Every time I post about something new I feel like I have not accomplished something small, but just made my overall project a whole lot better.

The only thing that really is truely difficult about doing something like this, is that I have almost no hands on experience with a lot of the equipment that I am talking about or describing to others in my posts. Hopefully, I can find a way to make sure that the message gets across, correctly.

Curation Update week 2

I feel that I have been really enjoying this project. In not many classes can you really learn about something that interests you specifically. My camera research has been going well and I have learned more than I had planned or even thought I would need to.

I decided to use Tumblr and there is a slight learning curve to it. Although it has many features to it as blogger  does so I quickly was able to fiddle around learn to make posts and blogs about my curation. YouTube has been a great help to me and finding more cameras as well as personal interest into several things I can only read about.

A lot of the stuff I talk about is based off of research, personal opinion, and a small amount of hands on experience. I have very little hands on experience with these cameras, especially the more expensive ones.

Curation Update 1

I have started to do a lot, and I mean a lot, of research on cameras for my topic. It turns out that there are so many different things that I do not know about cameras that I always feel like taking any career path in film has to be the most expensive choice in the world. An average Joe who wants to start a film career will most likely go with some kind of DSLR. Digital cameras that can take high quality photos and video. Anything else lower would not be worth your time or money.
Now I have had to really research everything to understand to anything far superior in technology. Camera's like Red, and Photron are so expensive and rare in their types that it takes some serious work and dedication to wanting to own one of them. Mostly movie studios would own one of these to help film high budget films. as the research expands and continues so does my knowledge of the topic I so dearly love.
