Why don't you just get a video camera?

Susan and I had a fun time shooting photos for this assignment in Washington Square Park on Monday. Susan's idea was to shoot the same scenes from two different points of view, so we walked around the park facing each other and taking pictures. I've never used iMovie or iPhoto or After Effects before, but Susan's a pro, so our final product is pretty impressive for only two days of work. We also discovered a shared love for Ani Defranco and Dar Williams.

  • Best Picture: Susan with the bird in her face OR Rosie with supermodel wind-blown hair

  • Funniest Moment: Susan went to stand by a statue and gave me a big smile like she was posing for a tourist picture before she realized what we were doing and held up my camera to pretend to take a picture at the same time.

  • Technical Difficulty: My camera died about halfway through, so the second half of the time we shared her camera and took pictures of each of holding my (dead) camera.
