The beauty of human skin in every color in this unit we have learned that the primary focus of portraits in the individual's face or expression. in this talk, dass says that the primary focus of her portraits is what? based on this, do you believe that her photos are considered portraits? in this unit you have studied the ways in which portrait photography allows you to see a person's true personality and interests on film. in relation to this idea, what does dass say that these portraits us rethink? this unit of study has imparted very specific tips and instruction for creating excellent portraits. what are some of the specific guidelines you have learned about and do you think that dass adhered to these during her photography sessions? we have learned about how to take different portraits such as children, groups, and taking formal photographs. dass discusses taking portraits of refugees and people living in shelters. can you think of a topic for an additional lesson that might be beneficial for this portrait course? why? "up" what is the technique that this video offers for portraits? why is this technique often a good one to use for portraits? where should the subject's eyes, head, or face be located using this technique? why? do you like this perspective in the photographs?

1. I believe the primary focus is:  To show color outside of white and black by taking photographs of the subjects face. Dass aimed to eliminate the prejudice that we have on which skin color is considered better and bring the audience to see the beauty in the human geniune expression rather than the color alone.

2. Yes, i think it would be considered as a potraits.
A potratis is a picture of an individual. Since the expression shown is part of the individuals themselves, i would argue that the artwork could be conisidered as a ptraits.

3. She says they help us rethink color and the person behind the skin. She wants people to be seen for their heart and personally, she believed that her artworks would help the society to eliminate racism/social prejudices that we imposed to other people simply based on the color of their skin

4. Some of the noticable guidelines that she adhered to were:
- Taking some candid photos in order to show the natural expression from the people in the portrait.
- Making sure that the portraits have clear backgrounds in order to bring the focus to the individuals.

5. I would say that we can learn about the struggles that people in shelters /refugee camp face as the additional lesson from the photos.
With this lesson, the photographers conveys that we should try to get in touch with our humanistic value and make some efforts to help them elevate some of their miseries.

6. The technique would be to Center the subject.
Centering the subject would provide a better frame for the main pictures that the creator wish to dominate the frame.
Doing this would  directly focus the attention of the viewer at the subject that we want to bring up  the most.

7. This technique is very good for a portrait because It minimizes the distraction, and it adds impact to the image.
And often times, this technique would make the audiences aware of the details that they might miss under normal circumstances.

8. When using this technique, the subject eyes should be located In a horizontal line and a vertical third line.
This location would most likely provide equal spacing in the top, bottom, left, and right part of the background and would place the face/expression of the portraits as the main focus in the frame.

9. Personally, No.
Using this perspective in the photograph would make face seems to big to be considered as 'aesthetically pleasing'.
On top of that, this perspective also make it difficult to observe the body language of the figure in the portrait.
