Things
to Consider:
- Be sure to have a ‘story’ that flows from one photo to the next.
- Be safe and careful when photographing your project.
- Try to create interesting compositions that hold the viewer’s attention. Apply what you know: focal point, leading lines, frame within frame, rule of thirds, filling the frame, etc.
- Consider photographing and interviewing someone. If it is a sensitive topic, this must be checked with teacher and individual.
- Who is your most important audience?
