Story Proposal
Finding a Subject
Focus your photos this week on possibilities for a photo story or narrative. Explore some options that might give you both good opportunities for visually appealing photos as well as material for a good story. The story may be easier if it’s non-fiction, and you find a person or team or family or organization that has a story to tell.
Propose Subject(s)
Propose 2 subjects for your story, each with accompanying photos (about 5-7 photos each); as well as a short narrative for each subject. Your narrative should be 2-3 paragraphs describing the main content of the story, its audience (who would be interested), and why you think it might be interesting for your audience.
Post your 2 galleries with a Story Title above the gallery/slideshow, and the text description beneath each one. Then use a horizontal rule to divide each section as below
For galleries use the following settings (you may use Size: Large as the photos will scale for the browser window and this will fill the window):
We will review your story ideas so you can continue work on them. You might consider photos you could take during Thanksgiving break, also.
