Every single person in America is being touched by this event in some way.
Photography has a vital role to play.
The next weeks of class will not just consist of completing high school photography projects. You will be documenting actual history in some small (or big) way.
Please take a look at the website of Valerie Mosely. She used to be a photographer for the Springfield News-Leader but now has her own business in Colorado.
Valerie uses photography to create visual stories.
Here is her website.
Here is her work when she was a photojournalist
Valerie does not rely on Photoshop filters or fancy tricks to make an impact. The strength of her work lies in the personal connections that she makes with the people she works with.
Carefully look at her work.
What Principles of Design does she use? What types of Perspective? She takes photos from both close-up and wide angle views.
For this first assignment today I would like you to spend some quality time looking at Valerie's work. Find one photo that really makes an impression on you.
In a new blog post copy and the photo and explain in as much detail as you can the photo you chose has made an impact on you. I will post further details of the project on Wednesday.
