That damn photo teacher is at it again only this time I have a photo example. He wants us to put two pictures of the same thing next to each other. The photo teacher believes the pinnacle of design was reached in the 90s. Seriously, all of his example layouts and designs belong on a web page optimized for Windows 98. He docks me points if something I make doesn't (in my opinion) scream tacky. Not kidding either, he gave me an F on this assignment because I used a "unimaginative" font and a "dreadfully boring" background. Admittedly I did make this whole poster in 5 minutes using crappy photos I had stored in the depths of my flash drive because I forgot something was due. But that's not the point here, the point is he is against modern design elements.
Clearly he's never heard of flat design or Jony Ive. Also, he's using Photoshop to layout these things when InDesign is a click away. I find his idea of design total bullshit in this day and age so I generally make things that are more simplistic and more pleasing to look at. Teachers like this is why we can't have nice things. My photo teacher only teaches photography, if you could call what he does "teaching." I maintain my position on that he is a waste of tax dollars and that the only reason he is still teaching after many layoffs is because of that damn teachers union making the school keep poor quality established teachers and laying off newer teachers that are arguably more useful. (sorry if that offended you Automatch or other oppo teachers).
Sample of some photos from this week (unedited):
I feel this stuff isn't too bad for being shot with the kit 18-55mm lens.

His idea is still better than Kinja...

How the heck is this teacher still in a line of work? This guy seriously needs to get on the chill pills, or get removed from teaching, he seems like a major disgrace.

I can see the dust on those examples from over the internet. Sounds like he's just lazy and has really poor taste.

Your photos are great, but I'd agree that poster isn't very good. You're obviously going for a modern layout, but nothing catches the eye. It all just melds together. Your typeface also doesn't flow as well as it should. Consider something more along the lines of Futura or Helvetica next time you're going for that style.

Well then, I rest my case.

What the Hell? What kind of teacher is that if he doesn't see creativity.
That looks great! No idea what he's on.

Yeah, like I said, I didn't put any effort into it (didn't know I had something due that hour). Font wise whenever I'm at school I'm stuck with whatever the stock windows package entails. The school has blocked the downloading and installing of fonts. Arial was the best I could do.

Ha! I took a picture of his screen with my potato in the dark. All the noise!

I thought the font was fine, it just didn't mesh...

from now on, use only pics of your asshole. Different filters and effects, different trimmings and accesories. Last project, your whole ass, with a steaming turd on his faculty photo.
Seriously though, can't you lodge a formal complaint, or ask for a neutral party (dept head or board arts director/resident freeloader) to evaluate. He will hate you but you should know if he needs to turn down the Bay City Rollers, or if you suck.
BTW, you don't suck.

Many complaints have been said against him to the administration by many other students but they never seem to do anything. I photoshopped his head onto Bill Gate's mug shot from 1977. I regret nothing.
