...The Fine Line Between Art and Truth Photo manipulation has been around for over a century, but the recent focus on Photoshop has caused news photography to be looked at in a new light. As a result, pictures that have been manipulated have been called into question, and therefore have had a significant effect on the credibility of various forms of print media. In this new age of media, where circulation is down and corporations are cutting employees, credibility is a much talked about commodity. Although photo manipulation has a great effect on the credibility of media, it should be considered an art form and given a certain amount of freedom. To accurately understand the argument, the history of pre-Photoshop manipulation opens the paper, followed by modern manipulation and the backlash it has caused, what credibility is, how newspapers are addressing photo manipulation, and how modern manipulation should be handled and the standards that it is held to. Photoshop is a tool that has made the practice of photo manipulation both easy and affordable. But what is photo manipulation? It is simply altering an original image, taking the negative or digital image and changing it in some way. This practice has always been common, as photographers have enhanced lighting or used filters to eliminate a certain color. However, in the context of this paper most of the examples addressed deal with the current, narrower view of photo manipulation. According to the 2006 edition of Merriam...

...graphic. Understanding the laws for using images can be a bit tricky, especially because there is wiggle room within the laws. And, with the mass distribution of images on the internet, it’s no wonder we’re all asking the same question over and over again: can I use that picture? While conducting research for this question and this paper, I ran across an organization that provides guidance regarding the legal, and ethical issues associated. The organization: International Visual Sociology Association (IVSA) is a nonprofit, democratic, and academically -oriented professional organization devoted to the visual study of society, culture, and social relationships. The individuals that comprise this organization come from a wide spectrum of disciplines, including sociology, anthropology, education, visual communication, photography, filmmaking, art, and journalism. The purpose of IVSA is to promote the study, production, and use of imagery, visual data, and visually-oriented materials in teaching, research, and applied activities. We also foster the use of still photography, film, video, and electronically transmitted images in sociology and other related fields. Together we work to encourage: documentary studies of everyday life in contemporary communities, the interpretive analysis of art and popular visual representations of society, studies about the social impact of advertising and the commercial use of images, the analysis of archival images as sources of data on society and...

...“With digital technology came digital photo manipulation. While the tenets of ethical news photography still held, there were notable breaches.” (Bersak 2006). The availability of new editing tools in the new century changed photojournalism radically. One of the most important issues in this era is to ensure that the photographs that are shown to the public are truthful, but photographic manipulation questions both ethics and repercussions of this type of editing in the field of photojournalism. One of the most well known cases of digital manipulation in documentary photography is the one by Brian Walski on March 30, 2003. That day, Walski had taken around 300 photographs of the fighting in Iraq, the civilians, and the British troops. He thought...

He read British magazines that explained how they were making their own gelatin emulsions to coat the plates so that they would not be wet plates. He perfected the process and began making his own gelatin emulsions and coated plates. By 1880 he invented a dry plate formula and patented a machine for preparing a large number of plates and that is how Eastman Kodak began. His company began to grow but faced collapse when the dry plates began to go bad in the hands of dealers. He recalled the plates and replaced them to make good on the plates and saving his reputation. He realized that what he was doing was making photography an everyday affair and strived make the camera as convenient as the use of the pencil. By 1885 he developed a film that was lighter than dry glass plates and that could be used...

...is currently an exotic dancer in order to save up money to one day open a photography studio. She is currently considering going overseas for an elective cosmetic medical procedure. The assigned question is, “What should Christine do?” I have identified the following ethical questions. 1. Does Christina really need cosmetic surgery? There is always a risk involved whether in the United States or overseas. Does Christina really think it is necessary for her to get cosmetic surgery and spend all that money? After all she does want to save enough money to start an art studio. 2. Is it right that Americans have to pay more than double on health care when the quality of health care in other countries is just as good as it is here? 3. Is it right that that hard working Americans do not have the freedom to go overseas to get cheaper medical procedures? While Christina is involved in a very non ethical line of work and is able to beat the system. 4. Is it right that struggling foreigners overseas cannot afford routine medical attention while Christina is able to come over there with money made from stripping and can get surgery a that is not needed? 5. Is it right that Christina should have to pay the extra 70 to 80% percent on a surgery when she has the job flexibility to go overseas and pay less for the same amount of care if not better? I believe that issue five is the most central issue at hand. I think that if Christina wants to be able to get cosmetic medical...

...The ever popular debate about photo manipulation is known to all photographers; amateurs and experts alike. Does this process enhance images or distort the truth? Photo manipulation has been around about as long as photography. There are examples that date back to as early as 1860. With the digital age, photo manipulation has taken huge leaps. You can see examples of digital manipulation in almost everything in today’s digital age, from advertisements to high end photo galleries. It is second nature. So second nature that we do not even think about some aspects of it and how it has changed and is continuing to change the world of photography.

...Concepts Dr. Thomas A. Swinney March 18, 2014 Abstract Kodak and Fujifilm shared the market of photographic films, digital cameras, supplying various products for the photography sector, and medical imaging equipment. Over time, both companies had to come up with new and improved products that would keep the consumers wants and needs satisfied. Both companies had their very own style of management, which allowed them to advance with the innovation of new and improved technology. Kodak, until January 2012, was the leader in the photographic and film market. Kodak’s unwillingness to adapt to the digital age gave Fujifilm an advantage. Technical advances gave Fujifilm a competitive edge. Fujifilm took advantage of the changing market. When it comes to ethics and social responsibility the companies are for the most part on the same level, but have some differences. Adapting to the changing market conditions affected each company’s management differently in many ways, and affected the growth and innovation process for both companies. After researching both companies the determination that all companies should be diversified in some way, in order to keep up in the changing market and economy is crucial for growth and success. Kodak vs Fujifilm: Who Wins? Fujifilm. Kodak was the innovator in the photography business. Their development overwhelmed the United States and also different parts of the world. It had practical experience in the photographic film and Polaroid market...

...HCS/335 Administrative Ethics January 31, 2012 Confidentiality is implicit in maintaining a patient's privacy, but confidentiality between provider and client is not an absolute right. Privacy is defined as the ability of the individual to maintain information in a protected way. Confidentiality in health care is the obligation of the health care provider not to disclose information. Within this paper I am going to discuss the confidentiality in regards to minors of how it affects them, relate to the facts, discuss the ethical/ legal issues, explain the managerial responsibilities and identify the proposed solutions. When dealing with confidentiality in the healthcare profession the acting provider does not suppose to disclose information. Take minors for example; they are protected under (FERPA) Family Educational Rights Privacy Act. FERPA has been known to protect minors in regards to educational purposes, important files, documents, photography and etc. After the minor reaches the age of 18 their rights are then transferred to them from their parent. Confidentiality is very risky and complicated when dealing with a minor, social workers and other persons involved are very cautious when giving out information about minors. Reasons being is because children as minors go through so much in regards to mental abuse, sexual abuse and physical abuse so keeping important documents and files confidential is mandatory. The arguments used in this particular article was the use...

...Instagram, as a free online photo sharing application with unique filters and social media networking opportunities, has first been launched by Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger in October 6, 2010 on Apple’s App Store. The development of the application first began in San Francisco Silicon Valley, with the attempt of the creators to launch the service application using their HTML5 mobile web application knowledge which they have first started through a check-in project named Brbn. With the inspiration the two owners got from their observations through Brbn that people would actually tend to share more photos on online applications, they decided to evolve the idea into a more specialized and innovative one, which is Instagram. The mobile photography application was first started on launch, with the seed funding $500.000 which was once provided by Baseline Ventures and Andreessen Horowitz in March 2010 while the owners were working for Brbn. Starting from November 2010 after the launch of the application on Apple’s App Store, new employees as community manager, engineers and community evangelist were started to be hired for the Instagram project, which has become a company by then. It is stated by the owners that it took only 8 weeks to build and ship Instagram, however, it was a product of a year of work. The co-founders were at working for Brbn at the beginning of their idea generation and innovation stage, which was giving the service of being able to create profiles and sharing...

...| Innovation of the TwoVianna DooleyProfessor GallowayStrayer University08/05/2014 | | Eastman Kodak Company and Fujifilm are competing corporations in the photography industry. When the industry changed both companies were affected, but due to very different management styles and ability to adapt to change Fujifilm took a lead while Kodak fell behind. George Eastman founded Kodak, in 1888. The company’s early success was based on the new technology for cameras. The camera simplified the photo taking process (Williams, C. 2013) Kodak’s main focus was photography and imaging. They had an array of products that ranged from photography equipment, film, paper and color chemicals. In the1980’s, Kodak’s market share reached 90%. This was a very special moment in the company’s history. Kodak developed the first concept of the digital camera in 1975. Their executives could not imagine the world without traditional film; unfortunately, the idea was dropped because they feared it would threaten the company’s film business. Digital cameras would become common; the technology started to spread and film sales dropped considerably at the late 1990’s. Kodak made a slow transition to digital technology. Unfortunately, their competitors adapted to change. This lead to Kodak’s loss of market shares both in the United States and worldwide. The company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. After one year of continuous battle to keep the company prosperous, the court approved financing...

Every planet in the solar system contains communities governed under the Federation of Space Expedition. Individuals are free to live throughout the galaxy, without the regulations of the past. Does this scenario sounds too good to be true, individuals who inhabited the planet thousands of years ago would disagree probably. Today, however a scientific advantage allows aircrafts to travel back and forth into space, space stations, and the moon. Astronauts are assigned missions that gather materials from space, conduct experiments, and maintain equipment for future use. The methods of understanding research processes, and terminology, begins with a basic understanding of the fields themselves. The quest to fulfill the requirement of research starts with the principles of why the research is need in the first place.
