Shoot-Feature

Buenas noches!
Great discussion last Thursday about Ethics, thank you for sharing your perspective. Please remember that this is a big part of this class, so keep up the participation!
This week, we embark on another adventure. We are going to start on the less time sensitive aspect of Photojournalism with "Features". We will view a video in class tomorrow that is very powerful and hopefully will help generate some ideas for your own topics, as well as discussion. Please do not miss this day!
We will also do some group brain storming to get your started thinking about how to find your feature. For this assignment, we are going to approach it like a 'photo column' of sorts, or blog even. The photographs should be timeless, an everyday slice of life that is unique. You can generate your own subject on this one! We will also be writing a short paragraph to go along with the photo on your blog.
Due: Thurs. March 20
What: Post to blog 2-3 photographs with 3-5 sentence paragraph to go along with the feature.
see you soon!
