Take a View Point!
Imagine you are working for an Organization,
Magazine (Online or Print), Campaign (not necessarily political),
Movement, or other entity that advocates either
For
or
Against
Something
.
You are retained to make
Photographs for the cause.
They
must
communicate the viewpoint visually.
This assignment is all about creating an image
based on an
idea, concept, belief
, action, opinion, interest, conclusion, etc.
My Organization, Magazine, Web Site, Movement, etc. is:
The Cause, Viewpoint,
Position that I am illustrating is:

Working with People
Now think of other
components
to “Make Visible” your idea or
view point
:
Finding or Creating the right
setting or location
Appropriate (to your theme)
Props, clothing, accessories
,
People!!
Who can help you
, and who would be great to
‘act’ in your photo
.
Ask yourself:
What is the most exciting visual way that I can illustrate
m
y idea?
Only
after you have
an idea that excites you
do you ask, “
Ok, How much of this might I be able to actually
do.
Then go for
as much of
it
as possible
!
This is very much like being a Screen Writer. You
are
telling a story visually.

Journaling:
First thing in the morning take 10 minutes and just write
