Your task is going to be to do the same. You will tell us about someone with images. We will use captions in favor of narration, but the idea is the same.
Specifics:
- Choose someone to tell us about (friend, family, coworker, etc).
- Narrow down your story, what specifically about them would you like to tell us? A hobby of theirs? A specific event? A trait? etc.
- You will be shooting a BUNCH of images of this person. From these 7 will become your tell of their tale?
Today's Task:
Watch a handful of the above clips then post a comment on this blog answering the following questions:
- Which 1 in 8 million photo essay did you like the best? why?
- Which image in that essay did you find most interesting?
- What did the photographer do to make their images interesting and unique, not just snapshots? Compositionally? Lighting? etc.
