Pictures Say A thousand words? |
Ok, my issue is that i have an assignment for english in which we have to take 15+ pictures of an event and write an essay about them can be persuasive whatever not really describing pictures themselves or the effects of a photograph in its context but the event is your topic to base the essay off - I get the concept that pictures have such a dramatic statement and you can do w/o words or words are less important in a lot of cases such as editing and croping in news and scandal however i cant write about pictures generally like that it has to be specific of the picture- I just need some ideas or ex. of a good photo essay & again its not just captions under the pictures its a full essay basing the topic off the event of the picture- I took some really great pictures of cali but i dunno what the essay would really be there its an event because its a trip but not sure what would be the topic there - So any ideas would help me thinking outside the box better i guess This sounds more like a journalism class. First rule is to write what you know. Find a subject that you are interested in and write a draft of the piece. Then with note book and camera in hand go interview people, gather more detailed information and photograph the more visually interesting aspects of your subject. Return and flush out your story and include the photos that support or help visually explain what you are saying. Source(s): Editorial, sports and glamour photographer This may or may not help you in your exploration of photos but if a picture were to say a thousand words to me it would be along the lines of something like this. http://www.afiaphotos.com/galleries/port... Those pictures say a million words to me. You should definitely do what the first poster said & thats to go with what you know & what interest you.. you'll know where to start & to go from there. This sounds like a wonderful project & I hope it goes well for you. |
