Umm, I'll Be On KBS1 Tonight

OK -- So, this is one of the things keeping us busy these days, besides Seoul Fashion Week. I'm going to be on the KBS1 show "Love in Asia" tonight (Tuesday, October 21 at 7:25). The KBS producers saw the Hangyoreh Shinmun story and decided to do one on me -- and since my parents also happened to be in town, it was a perfect chance.

Apparently, you'll get to see me and a few other folks working on a special project that's been taking a lot of my time these days (still classified, by the way), as well as shots of my messy apartment, my mom chiding me for inviting KBS1 over to such a cluttered pad, shots of me shooting people in the streets, and even me in the classroom with my high school girls.

The producers assure me that I didn't come out as nearly as awkward as I actually was. Sometimes, when shooting, the camera guy would ask me some simple question, and it'd take me 4-5 attempts to answer it. I would say, "I told you I was awkward on camera." He chuckled and nodded in agreement.

Hehe. Anyway, I wonder how it'll come out. I'm NOT going to watch it myself -- so you all tell me how it all goes. I shudder at the thought of watching myself on TV (I don't own one, either), and I sincerely apologize for inflicting myself upon you, in your living rooms.

But my photography and projects gotta get some attention somehow, right? So, heeeeere we go. Tonight, at 7:25! And leave a comment to tell me how it went, alright?

"Why Be Critical?"

  • Before you say this site is "anti-Korean" or bashing Korea – read this: "Why Be Critical?" Chances are, if you're simply angry because I am a social critic in Korea but not actually Korean, see if your argument isn't just a kneejerk response that follows these patterns.

Photo Classes!

  • Session 1: Just the Basics Dealing with the basic operations and functions of your DSLR, explaining each function, button, and doo-hickey. The bulk of the session is likely going to stick around the relationship between aperture and shutter, as well as depth-of-field. Basically everything on your camera has something to do with this relationship.

    Session 2: Composition and Shooting (Shooting Session 1) We'll take those examples and look at them on the big screen, while also answering the concrete questions that will pop up about the stuff we learned before. Then we'll talk about composition and other framing issues, including lens lengths and why some lenses are worth $100 bucks and some are worth $10,000.

    Session 3: Flashes and Advanced Exposure (Shooting Session 2) Dealing with flash, in terms of compensating above and below exposure levels (bracketing), as well as other bracketing techniques in general.

    Session 4: Final Session/Critiques Keeping it open, determined by the class.

    Four 3-hour sessions, as well as shooting sessions, photo discussions, and critiques. An individual photo essay will also be done as part of the ongoing class assignments. Inquire at the email address at the top right of this page.
