The Amateur Camera Club Annual Report
Purpose
The intention of this report is to outline the annual activity of the Amateur Camera Club which has been working in our college since 2005. The information below summarizes various events connected with this club which came about during last year as well as the fundamental details related to membership and its main projects. This data will be followed by the experimental ideas proposed for the upcoming twelve months.

Membership
The Amateur Camera Club is sponsored by the head office of Los Angeles Valley College. The club is open to anyone who has an interest in photography. However, all members must attend the Los Angeles Valley College. Camera Club membership is renewable in September. The Treasurer collects Camera Club dues in October. To apply for membership, the candidate must fill the Amateur Camera Club Membership Application Form out and mail it to the Treasurer at the address given on the bottom of the form. The important thing is to attach a check for the single membership fee for the sum of $20. The applicant may also bring the form and a check to a club meeting and give it to the Treasurer.

Special Projects
Every year the Amateur Camera Club organizes a few essential events. The most important is the Open Summer Sun Contest. Each year it takes place in different venues but always at the same time: the second weekend of the July. For instance the previous year competitions were situated in the picturesque California Palace of the Legion of Honor. Participants could prove their abilities during sessions in the building and its surroundings. There are three main prizes for the best photos from all three days of contest, and those prizes constitute various photographic equipment. In addition to this huge contest there are numerous field workshops organized every month in various fascinating places of Los Angeles and its suburbs. The purpose of them is to meliorate member’s photographic skills.

    Four out of fifty states have passed laws requiring some officers to wear body cameras. Oklahoma is not yet one of them. The Sooner State currently has a law that if body cameras are worn all camera data is released to the public under the open record law. This law does not require the officer to be equipped with the camera. It states that if footage is recorded the police may be able to temporarily withhold the records from the public, had the footage not contain a death or violence to a person not caused by an officer. NewsOk states that governor Mary Fallin passed this law in 2015. Although I think Oklahoma does have a decent law in tact I think that stations throughout the state should still be required by law to have most if not all active officers wear body cameras.…

    The Museum of Modern Art’s exhibition had a lot to offer educationally, and offered a lot of creative ideas. As a student it’s very easy to try and capture the most famous scenic image that we know for example, the Manhattan skyline, the Brooklyn Bridge, or images from Central Park. These artists featured in the Museum of Modern Art are exploring ideas that are much more personal to them. Personal ideas, feelings, and issues are coming up as a topic of discussion in photography, which hopefully can expand outward, beyond photography so that we don’t overlook and dismiss our own feelings and the feelings of the people around…

    Ever since 1839 photography has become an essential means of communication and expression. In its early years, photography 's unique powers of visual description have been used to record, report, and inform. As stated by Beaumont Newhall (1982: 7), photography "is at once a science and an art" and both aspects are inseparably associated throughout its astounding rise from a substitute for skill of hand to an independent art form. A central role of photography was and still is that it has documented and recorded people 's lives and the world in…

We enjoyed it because it was particularly interesting how the 1960’s was portrayed through photography. It showed not only white Americans but African-Americans making it easily relatable. It showed hard times, fun times and how they made the hard times fun times.…

    Photography, meaning “drawing with lights” in Greek, is an art as well as a science of capturing light and storing it on a medium with unprecedented accuracy. Yet, up until the late 18th century, history was mainly recorded through the techniques of painting and the press. These mediums unarguably contained a certain degree of a truth, though, it was not uncommon for events, such as war to be composed with glorified details, or an unfavorable bias from the artist at hand. Beginning in the 1830’s, cameras provided a revolutionary solution by combining the advancements in optics and chemistry. Consequently, the new medium of photography was established and forever changed how history would be visually captured. Unlike other methods, photography…
