Ethics in Fashion

1. Many changes were made to the model to make her fit certain beauty standards. Some of the changes that were made include...

• changing her hair a bit
• enlarging her eyes
• stretching her neck
• making her shoulders and face thinner
• bringing her eyes further down
• adding a slight bit of makeup

2. The model's body, face and hair in the end are are completely different from what she actually looks like. Changes to the model's body include...

• enlarging her eyes 
• changing her hair slightly    
• lightening her skin tone and smoothing her skin
• picking her shoulders up
• extending her arms and legs
• making her stomach and neck appear thinner 
• changing her nose and lips
• and extending her neck
• changing her feet and toes

3.  Changes made were...

• making the pizza into a person
• adding clothes

4. I think it's acceptable to change a person's appearance slightly if they are okay with it, It isn't being used to manipulate others, and it is know that the person's appearance is altered if the photo is being used in advertising. 

5. Yes, there are absolutely certain situations which it is more ethically wrong to manipulate photos. If the subject or model does not want their appearance changed and you change it anyways that is very wrong and could hurt them and damage their self esteem.

6. I think getting rid of blemishes or maybe touching up some of the model's insecurities is okay, ONLY if they ask you to. I don't think it's okay to completely change the way someone looks.

7.  I think photojournalism is more about taking photos of certain events that are interesting or some things that should be shared. I think fashion photography is about a model.

8. I think all photography is about capturing and sharing beautiful moments. When photos are manipulated and altered, it takes away from the moment you captured and it is no longer realistic.

9. I think you are showing us these videos to teach us about what is ethically right and wrong. I think we can learn from it and make a difference.

10. I think it i more socially acceptable for men to look any way they to look whereas women are set to nearly impossible to achieve beauty standards. Women are often photoshopped to achieve these standards.
