15.  Click  on  the  “File”  menu.  Holding  the mouse/trackball button down, drag down to “Close.” You   have   just   successfully   retrieved   and compressed a digital image. The image is now ready to be  transmitted  by  modem  using  the  telecommunications software of your choice. Repeat Steps 5 through 14 for each   image   you   desire   to   transmit.   When   you   are finished, quit the Adobe Photoshop application. In this section we attempted to give you the basics of still digital photography. Further information maybe obtained from the Photography (Advanced) TRAMAN or by contacting the CHINFO News Photo Division. PHOTO JOB ORDERS LEARNING OBJECTIVE: Identify the purpose of  the  photo  job  order  and  list  the  required photo job order information. In areas where Navy imaging facilities are located, one  of  the  easiest  means  of  getting  photographic coverage is by properly filling out a job order form. The title of the form may change to include other services, but you should have an understanding of the purpose and basic information needed to fill out the request for services  properly. A  job  order  serves  as  the  authority  for  requested work the record of the imaging facility and its receipt. It  accompanies  the  work  being  performed  through  every phase of the photographic process. To   use   the   job   order   successfully,   you   should develop  a  good  understanding  and  relationship  between your unit and the imaging facility. In  submitting  a  job  order,  all  information  pertaining to  the  job  should  be  recorded  to  avoid  confusing  the photographer  performing  the  actual  work.  The  job  order information you must provide includes the following: Name of your activity Your  activity  job  number Job security classification Number of views needed Size and finish of prints Priority and date required Location of work Name   and   telephone   number   of   person requesting job Person  to  whom  the  photographer  should  report; also the date and time the services are required Description of the job to be photographed Uniform the photographer should be wearing The most important information of the job order is the concise description of the job to be photographed. All information pertaining to the job should be described as  clearly  and  complete]  y  as  possible  to  avoid  any confusion  for  the  photographer. Your  relationship  with  the  imaging  facility personnel should include an understanding that your job orders always allow for a creative or imaginative shot along with the requested standard or sure-shot. In cases where  the  photographer’s  shot  is  better  than  the  shot requested, use the better shot. Never request “one to 10 of  every  shot.”  Should  you  be  allowed  to  select  your prints by screening proof sheets or negatives, select only the best shots to satisfy your requirements. Another  method  you  should  use  to  foster  good relations  with  the  imaging  facility  is  to  rely  on  the judgment of an experienced photographer and request the “best view of ...”  when ordering prints. 11-42
