4. It is not ethically acceptable to change a person's appearance like in those photos. This is because the editor is changing the psychical appearance of a person and changing who they appear to be as a person. A person should accept who they are because they cannot naturally change how they appear to look in the real world.
5. There are circumstances in which it would be more ethically wrong to do this type of manipulation. For example, if the model did not know the changes that were going to be made to her body on the computer. If a person is going to be edited to that degree then they should at least be aware of it.
6. There are a few things that would be okay to edit. For example, if a the model wanted to remove small blemishes on their body but do it without changing the overall appearance of their body that would be ethically acceptable. Also, the lighting of the picture would be okay to edit, and this can affect the model's skin tone.
7. Photojournalism is when the photographer captures their subject in their natural state and very little editing is done to the pictures. Fashion photography involves model's being taken pictures of and then those photos are edited so much that in some cases the model is unrecognizable.
8. In photojournalism, this type of photography is very closely related to reality, as the photos are not edited very much. On the other hand, fashion photography has a very distant relationship with reality. These photos are edited to a point of extreme unethical practices. Photojournalism is very ethical because of the lack of editing/photoshop.
9. I think these videos were shown to us because you wanted us to see what not to do. You want us to capture our subjects in their natural states and positions. You want us to avoid using photoshop, and if we do have to use it, use it sparingly.
10. None of these videos are of guys because women feel more pressured to appear stereotypically "beautiful" and to fit in with the rest of the world. In reality, the model are doing anything but fitting in. They are giving women around the world false hope for looking like the model's edited selves. Guys are less pressured to appear stereotypical and feel less judged.
