Due April 9, 12 pm, Noon. 4 pts.
A final project proposal of 300 words min plus a gallery of images for inspiration otherwise known as a mood board.
The goal of the Final Project is to create a series of 10 related images on a theme.
You may choose to do either:
A series of portraits (not 10 pictures of 1 person but 10 pictures of 10 people) OR
A portrait of a neighborhood
OR another theme that you are passionate about: dogs, skateboarders, basketball players, street fashion to name a few possibilities.
Decide which assignment(s) you most enjoyed. What are you most interested in? Then consider: do you have people to work with? What is your schedule like and what is practical?
Final Project statement: Describe your project. What is your theme? What is the story you want to tell? What is the subject matter? Where will you shoot and when will you shoot? What kinds of techniques will you use?
Find a minimum of 6 images by 6 different photographers that show what you want your project to look like. Put them in a gallery in the post with your final project statement.
