Choices/Portfolio Planning

1. What is your theme for your final project?Example: My theme project is Music in Seattle.

2. Why did you choose this as your theme? Be specific. 1-2 sentences

3. What type of locations will you choose to shoot your pictures? Why? Keep in mind that you will need to leave campus and most likely leave Shoreline.

4. What type of pictures do you hope to take? Action, portrait, landscape etc? A good photo essay will have a variety.

5. What kind of composition will you focus on in your pictures? You will need at least three composition elements (not counting rule-of-thirds). Yes, I want to know what you are attempting before you shoot.

5b. How will your pictures convey emotion, either from your subject or from the viewer of the pictures?

6. How much work will be done at school and how much away from school? You will have 3 in class days to shoot for this.

7. If you don't have a car, how will you make sure you get to your locations? Can your parents help? How about public transit?

8. This project should showcase everything you have learned in Photography. How will you ensure this happens? What techniques will you use (camera and darkroom)?

9. Is there anything you are unclear about in terms of composition or shot styles and angles etc? This is the time to ask.

10. Please find 3 example pictures that you think embody your topic and paste images or links to them in this document.
