Korean HighSchool "Ganster" dance for Fun: Photographing events is a common and useful part of documentary photography. Show the event and also bring meaning to the people looking at your images who were not at the event. 

  At a minimum you will need to capture an overall picture,a medium picture and a closeup picture. 

Present at least three pictures on your site. Description/Key Words/Location metadata required. 

My friend Rachel (The girl with the red glasses) and her roommates are graduating this year from College. They want to have some nice pictures and a video to memorize their time in college. Before Hallowen 2014, they asked me to shoot a K-Pop (Korean pop music) video for them. They dressed up like Korean high school ganster: The black "running man" sports suits with their name on the back, and danced with BarBarBar- A funny Korean pop song and also some warm christian pop song to memorize the funny and warm moments of their friendship. Although they dressed like "gangsters“, they are actually very nice and sweet people in real life. 

 

Preparation- Make Up

On our wall to Krannert performing art center for the final photo shoot. Although this photo is very blurry. I still love it. It shows they are moving, and the tone of this photo is happy. The focal point of the photo is Rachel- the girl who is smiling, on the left of the photo.
