Her life has been transformed from film to digital causing a massive impact, like a freight train, on her life. She started with black and white and then to digital which changed her partners and herself alot. That wasn't the only step though, she also had to find out what email was and the new ways of sending pictures back to tha main base. Her life was greatly changed by technology.
Her life has been transformed by fiber optics and digital transmission because she basically lived for taking digital pictures and continued taking pictures for 25 years. At first she was using film for most of her career but technology was increasing by so much and getting so much better so she decided to work with the technology. She then went to working with digital pictures.
Annie Griffith didn't want to go to digital from film but had to because everyone else was going to be using digital cameras and that it was the way photographers were going to take pictures. Since she moved on to digital i think that she is taking better pictures and that means a lot to photographers.
i think it was a good thing she switched to digital photography because the other pictures aren't as good. if she wouldv'e stayed with film photography she probably wouldn't have won any awards or got paid as much as she did. digital photography is so easy and you can send it and receive it instantly.
Her life has transformed because now she can instantly send the photos home and the pictures are more clearer. She has had a major change from film because now you can just look at your pictures without getting them developed first and you can also upload them on your computer. I think shes happier with the new technology now.
I think she can take good pictures. I also think that it was a good thing that she switched to a digital photography and not stay in the film stuff or she would have lost her job or soemthing would have happened.
I think Annie made a good decision switching to a digital camera because it is easier and if the picture wasnt right you could delete it instead of taking up film. She can now send it to her editor right away instead of having to wait for her picyured to come in. Lots of people these days have digital cameras.
I think that Annie Griffiths live has been different since she has been using digital cameras because if she was still using fiber obtics cameras who knows if her picture would of should up like it did.
Annie Griffith made a huge change when she switched from film cameras, to digital cameras! I think digital is much easier to use and it has helped her become a better photographer. I can't imagine using film and being a photographer, because you may think you took a good picture but its actually blurry! Her work is very good.
I think that Annie Griffith is a decent photographer. The jump from film photography to digital is a big one, because when you did it on film you had a certain amount of pictures that you had to make all good and you took your picture into the dark room and proccesed them with no editing. Nowadays you can take alot of pictures if you have a decent camera and then you can just upload and edit the pictures how ever you want and then just send them around the world with the click of a button.
Annie Griffith has had quite a ride..... she went from using film to using technology. I think this is a challenge for her because she takes amazing photos but needs to use digital camera's. I hope she keeps going on what she doing.
Using film for 25 years is a long time. The world is changing everyday and someone comes up with something new like fiber optics and digital transmission. If she wanted to continue being a photographer she had to get the lastest technology because soon the film she has been using for so long will soon be forgotten.
Before Anne Griffith would have to develop the film her self and wait to actually get the picture and now when she switched she dosen't have to wait for the picture to show up and now all she has to do is hook it up to a computer and send the picture.
this picture is really neat with the sunset and waterfall , i love how the waterfall looks in the background.
I think its a good thing that this type of technology is made because it just makes our lives easier. digital photographs are beautiful and plus if you dont like a picture you can delete it and retake the picture. She did a good thing getting on board digitally you can also change the colour and other little things like that.
lots of photographer did not like the though or change to digital photophy. so may people liked the old film ya but after they relized that you could take pictors and delite then and then take the same one again but differently. now all most all familys have a digital camora, but not all do.
Technology has really changed the world and origonoly photographers didn't like the idea of digital photoghraphyl, but know almost everyone uses digital internet and computer have been advanced from dial-up to broadband to fiber optic highspeed. dial-up and bradband use electic pulses moiving through copper wires but fiber optic use different light pulses moving through bendable glass thinner than a human hair. Did you know that fiber optics can send a pulse of light around the world seven times in one second!
Her life changed dramatically. It is now easier to take pictures, and faster to send them to an editor. You can take as many pictures as you want and delete the ones you don't.
I think our technology is amazing then it was back then.Its really cool how long cameras were made in the past.
I did not know technology has gone so far. I always thought it was close to the same as five years ago with some minor changes. I remember when i was a kid and my parents used those cameras and had to take the film to superstore.
I think thid video shows how digital throughout/photography is advancing throughout the years. Photos can be uploaded anywhere, when befrore it took a week for them to be printed.
Photography has changed her life in many different ways. For her it is easier to send pictures to her editor, and it is alot easier for her to take pictures as well. She has used many different kinds of cameras. She also has went from having to send pictures in the mail to sending pictures on the internet my e-mail.
Griffith's life - and any other photographers' - has been dramatically changed with film. It is much quicker and easier with digital cameras. You don't like a picture, you delete it. You like a picture, you can send it away on email. With film, you have to get back to your house or a store just to get it developed. Whether or not it will be a good picture, you have to wait and see.
Digital photography changed her life alot because she is a photographer so the most easily and most reliable way of taking pictures is what she is going to use.
Her life has changed alot because of the digital change. I know she probably misses the good old days, but the new way makes her life alot easier. She can send her photos from anywhere in the world to whomever she wants and they will arrive there in a very short time. I personally think this change is for the better.
Annie Griffith's life was changed because with technologie you can send a pictour and it will get to the place you want in just a few min. other than a few days or weeks. With film you have to go into a dark room and do a whole bunch of stuff and with a digital camera you just put the pictures on the coumputer or a labtop and you can send them in a matter of min..
Her life has benn changed greatly by digital photography. Before she had to take the photo, take it to the red room, publish it, and the mail it to the editor. Now she can take the picture then send it to the editor within minutes. Technology has come a long way in that sense.
The digital camera is a revalution in photography because it enables people to take picture and veiw the pictures right after you take them and if you dont like it then you can delete it and take another one. The fiber optic cable allow peolple to send the pictures across the world it not time at all.
I think that technology has greatly increased over the years and now it is was easier to take and deleat pictures. Also online mailing has made it so pictures or anything can be sent as soon as you press the send button.
Annie Griffith life has changed by fiber optics because the old cameras are becoming out-dated.But it has made her life easier because she can now send pictures via e-mail quickly.
Her life has been transformed because she now has fiber optics so she can transfer her pictures really far, really fast. She is able to delete the photos that don't work with whats she's doing. It's so simple to send photos to anyone. Fiber optics make it more faster for people that need to share there photo's fast and without this you would have to wait a whole week to even see your photo's.
I think that Annie Griffith's life had beenn transfprmed because digital photes because back in thr day, they had film in there cameras and hada to take the pictures and then go in a black room and make the picture . Now you can take a picture and if u dont liike iit u can deleit it and take piictures tiill you like one
Her life has changed alot from the tecnology now. It makes her job alot easier and she can take as manny pictures as she wants to, if some don't turn out she can just delete them and take another one. Now it take she can just send the picture to where ever and she doesn't have to do much. with the old cameras she would have had to take it to a place wait for them to turn them to pictures and then send it.
I think that the digital photography is much more simpiler.
Technology has bettered. Its way easier now to share pictures with others just by email.
I think the transformation of technology was a really good change because it saves alot of time. Pictures are much more clearer and you can delete them with a click of a button and retake a new one. Email was also a really good change from actual mail. Sending pictures through email is much more convenient now than just regular mail.
Annie Griffith's life was changed by fiberoptics because she could now take, transport, and publish pictures so much easier than it was years ago.
I think it is interesting because it used to be all film pictures. Then digital cameras came out. For most of us that is what we will remember. In the next few years technology will be even more advanced then most of us are going to be ready for. I think using film nowadays would be a little confusing for most people. Now with fiber optics things are a lot faster and easier.
peoples lives changed as technology has progressed especially w9ith young people.
The digital era has transformed lots of potographers lives. With the new cameras you no longer have to wait for a picture to be devoloped or not knowing if you got the "perfect shot". With new cameras the picture just shows up on the digiatal screan and away you go.
social media is Social media is an umbrella term that defines the various activities that integrate technology, social interaction, and the construction of words and pictures.
