Now that you have an idea of the objectives and techniques behind photojournalism, we'll look at specific photographers, moving onto aspects of composition and finally your own work. Please read the following carefully. Today and Thursday are exploratory days. By the close of Thursday  in class, you will hand in a list of three photo journalists and on Friday, I'll let you know which one is yours. The objective is not to have duplicates.
Photojournalism / Photojournalists
1. Spend today and Thursday  exploring the works of the following photo journalists. The list is by no means exhaustive, so you might have some ideas of your own.
2. Choose three that appeal to you and write down their names in order of preference.
3. On  Friday, I'll tell you who you will be researching.  There should be no duplicates.
4. Monday and Tuesday, March 5 and 6, you will have time in class to reseach and organize your project, which will consist of:
a. Researching the biographical information on your journalist, noting significant influences in their work and philosophical perspectives.
b. Creating a power point  presentation consisting of seven slides: a title slide that includes an image of the photojournalist with his or her name and life dates, followed by 6 images taken by the journalist. Put your presentation on a jump drive!Next  you will present your research to the class
With accompanying notes, you will give an historical overview of your journalist, noting particularly the significance of their work. As well, you should be able to accurately and objectively describe the images, as well as putting them into historical context and location. Be able to answer the question, why the image works.
You must have your work on a jump drive. There is no time to access your material through e-mail.
Note power point attributes: NO WHITE BACKGROUNDS
                                               On the slide with the picture of the photographer, you may include a 
                                                quote.
                                               One very large image on a slide and a cut line only.
                                             
Possible topic choices. If there is someone else you wish to research, please let me know.
