Bakalauro darbo tikslas — išspausdinti ofsetine dvispalve spauda sepijos fotografijos atvirutes, reprezentuojančias Kelmės miestelį, pritaikius teorijoje išnagrinėtą dvispalvės spaudos procesą. Siekiant įgyvendinti šį tikslą buvo aptarti menininkų darbai (V. Balčyčio, A. Budvyčio G. Trimako, R. Treigio, A. Ostašenkovo), kuriuose naudojama tonuota fotografija — sepija, kaip idėjos realizavimo forma urbanistiniame peizaže; išanalizuota literatūra, susijusi su sepija technologija fotografijoje; aptarta sepijos tono problematika dvispalvėje spaudoje; pasirinkti tinkamiausi spaudos paruošimo variantai kūrybinės idėjos įgyvendinimui. Darbo objektas — tonuotos fotografijos – sepijos panaudojimas tiražinėje spaudoje vaizduojant urbanistinį peizažą. Bakalauro darbą sudaro teorinė ir kūrybinė dalys. Teorinėje dalyje analizuojama, kaip ir kokie aspektai reikalingi reprezentuoti miestelį kaip kultūrinį identitetą fotografijoje, perteikiant mažo miestelio istorinį veidą. Literatūros analizė padėjo atskleisti sepijos tono subtilius aspektus ofsetinėje spaudoje ir išryškino galimus sepijos tono pasikeitimų manipuliacijas. Kūrybinėje dalyje pristatomas Kelmės miestelį reprezentuojantis mažasis leidinys – atvirutės, atspausdintos ofsetine dvispalve spauda, kuriuose panaudotas sepija tonas. Atlikta menininkų kūrybinių darbų, kuriuose naudojama tonuota fotografija, sepija analizė parodo, kad sepijos tonas yra mėgiamas menininkų dėl rusvo minkšto atspalvio, kuris leidžia paryškinti fotografijai...

Seeking to fulfil the purpose, artists' works were discussed (V. Balčytis, A. Budvytis, G. Trimakas, R. Treigys, A. Ostašenkovas'), in which toned photography – sepia is used like the form of realization of the idea in the urban landscape; literature, connected with sepia technology in photography is analysed; sepia tone problems in bicolour press are columniated; the most suitable variants of press preparation, accomplishing the creative idea, are chosen. The object of work is using toned photography – sepia in the circulating press, representing urban landscape. Bachelor's work consists of theoretical and creative parts. Its theoretical part analyses, how and what aspects are necessary to represent the town like cultural identity in photography, rendering the historical aspect of a little town. Literature analysis helped to reveal the subtle sepia tone aspects in offset press and revealed the manipulations in possible sepia tone changes. The creative part introduces Kelme's town representing little edition – postcards, printed in offset bicolour press, in which sepia tone in used. The analysis of artists works, in which toned photography is used, shows, that sepia tone, used in creative works, is favourite one because of its brownish soft tint, which allows to...

Research has shown that collegiate female athletes are oftentimes faced with negotiating meanings of their femininity and their athleticism. Athleticism has traditionally been equated with masculinity, and to be a collegiate athlete requires certain levels of skill, experience, and athletic ability. Therefore, female collegiate athletes are conflicted with managing their identities in order to avoid accusations of their sexuality, which often results in being labeled as deviant. A primary indicator of athleticism is muscularity, which is also considered a masculine trait. In order to stay within gender boundaries, female athletes may go above and beyond to emphasize their femininity, or they may hold back on performance and training to avoid a muscular physique. An area of collegiate athletics that has become increasingly important is the strength and conditioning coach and weight room. These coaches are responsible for training athletes in power and speed development to enhance sport performance and prevent injury. Research has shown, however, that the weight room and activity of lifting weights has not been deemed socially appropriate for women. The purpose of this study was to understand first, how do Division-I female athletes negotiate their femininity and muscularity within the strength and conditioning environment? Second, is there a difference in femininity and muscularity negotiations and management between underclassmen female collegiate athletes and upperclassmen female collegiate athletes? Finally, what aspects of the weight room influence the negotiations of femininity and muscularity among female collegiate athletes? To gain a rich understanding of how female athletes negotiate their femininity with muscularity in the strength and conditioning environment, a qualitative methodology was used. Semi-structured, in-depth interviews were conducted with 14 athletes, from 7 different sports, at a Midwestern Division-I university. Using a critical feminist interactionist theoretical framework, this study found that female collegiate athletes negotiate their meanings of muscularity and femininity in the strength and conditioning environment. Athletes viewed it necessary to place boundaries on their muscularity in regards to size, preferring the `toned' physique. All athletes acknowledged a positive impact on their sport performance, yet some athletes admitted to holding back during strength and conditioning sessions. Others believed that the weight lifting program was not threatening to their muscularity, but explained they would hold back if it did have a `bulking' effect. Finally, some athletes performed additional cardiovascular training to reduce body size. Additional findings suggest that the weight room environment is influential for the female athletes. The public weight room was described as a gendered space that was intimidating. In contrast, the collegiate weight room was a place that was welcoming to the female athletes. The strength and conditioning coach played an important role to the environment and the female athletes. Concluding results show that inconsistent with previous research, there were no consistent findings in attitude or behavior differences between underclassmen and upperclassmen athletes.
