The topic of my project is about emotion and expression. In our life, we would have different facial expressions such as happiness, sadness, fear or anger. Different people in a day would have different expressions. The emotion will be changeable because of the things that we meet in our life.


I feel interested about that since I I think facial expressions are very important in our life. For the facial expressions, these are not only the emotion. These are a vital part of communication. The expressions can show the emotion and mood of us. When people see our facial expression, they can get the feeling of us. Marcos (2016) reported that Our facial expressions – whether it be consciously or unconsciously – play a significant role in social interaction. “As humans, we are social creatures and much of our communication is nonverbal. One example of nonverbal communication is facial expressions,” Sambrano said. “We use facial expressions to help us judge how we should interact socially.””

In addition, sometime we would affected by the facial expression of others. One person’s facial expression can affect another person’s behavior. “Emotions are essential to how we interact with others and can be an integral part of who we are,” Sambrano said. “In the case of facial expressions, we use them to help navigate our social landscape by helping us decide when and to what extent to interact with others.” “For example, a student might want to ask a professor for an extension for their paper, and when they get there they may notice that the professor has an angry facial expression; that might indicate that maybe that’s not the best time to ask for an extension,” he said.” (Marcos, 2016).

Therefore, in this project, I would like to record the facial expressions of people through photos.
