In 2018, they have combined all the cities to create Destination KSA that caters to the countries under the banner Guide to Saudi Arabia.

    How does your product use or challenge conventions and how does it represent social groups or issues?  View this link to see the CCR:  https://sway.office.com/sbZIZfgA8fzoQilq?ref=Link       This art gallery consists of artists who are of the minority group. The feature story gives light to a gallery that supports black, Hispanic, etc. artists by holding their art and allowing prospectors to also purchase from their site. This has been a struggle for minorities such as black people to get their art out into the world. Allowing them to place these pieces into a physical art gallery that does gains plenty of attraction, gives them exposure to clientele. Every third Saturday of the month, there is a an art walk. This is where plenty of up and coming artists, even veteran ones, submit their art to be shown in it. And he does not necessarily have to be paintings, is it gonna be sculptures and jewelry also.

Photo Composition Info Pt.1

     Hello you guys! Long time, no see. So yes, I’ve been busy learning the new techniques that photographers use to take photos. I even learned Mise-en-scene (however I’ll explain that later). Yesterday, in class, I ended up doing a practice assignment identifying certain elements such as camera shots, angles, composition, and mise-en-scene that were in a video that was shown. It was a mistreating assignment. Although I didn’t not know what kind of answer my teacher was looking for, I explained how each kind of element was used to convey meaning in the scene. Hopefully I did well. Now onto the good stuff, some kinds of photo compositions would be framing, rule of thirds, depth of field, deep focus, shallow focus, and focus pull.  Framing      This is using elements in your screen to create a gram around what you’re trying to take a picture of on your device.
