American Soldier slideshow and captions

A. What is the most powerful image from the slideshows? Why? The most powerful image from the slide show is where he is on his cell phone and he is holding a gun. Because he is in a completely different environment now and he is holding a gun.

B. What sequence of photographs is the most powerful? Why? In the Army. Because it shows his change and how he is in the army now and it's going to change him completely.

c. How do the images work together to tell a story? They are in chronological order, and show emotions of him and others.


A. For the photos in which Ian is the main subject of the photos, in what tense are the verbs usually written? Most of the verbs are written in present tense.
  
B. How do the captions enhance the photographs? The captions enhance the photos because they say what the picture is showing, so not only do you have visual, but also verbal aid.

Chapter 3 :BASIC TRAINING picture 23.
Ian falls asleep in his room and is the victim of a prank pulled by fellow troop John.
Chapter 2: In The Army Picture 6.Ian Fisher closes his eyes and reminisces while he is getting his hair shaved his third day in the army.
Chapter 8: coming home picture 26 Ian holds hands with his girlfriend and mother in a parking lot feeling good about seeing each other again.

A. How do these other features enhance the photographs? These features enhance the photography by telling us more "behind the story" meaning the picture, them speaking and telling us what's really going on.


B. In what ways are videos better than photographs? Provide an example from the Denver Post Web site.Videos are better than photographs by giving it the advantage for them to speak explain their selves  of whats happening instead of in a photo, you have to take a strong estimated guess on what's going on in the photo or what you think is happening.

C. In what ways are photos better than videos? Provide an example from the Denver Post Web site.Photos are better than videos by photo's catching what people cant see you get too look at and examine the photo for a very long time, and also you can be able to make up your own story and examine it. video's you cant do that, you have to watch listen and look.
