RECAP OF THE PHOTOJOURNALIST PROJECT.

NOTE THAT THE GRAPHIC ORGANIZER AND SHORT

ESSAY IS DUE FROM EVERYONE THIS THURSDAY.

IMPORTANT: ANYONE PARTICIPATING IN FRIDAY'S

FIELD TRIP MUST PRESENT ON THURSDAY.

1. If you were in class on Friday, you spent the time exploring the works of the following photojournalists.

2. You chose three that appealed to you and wrote down their names in order of preference.

3. Today you researching the one of your selection. This is listed at the very end of the blog. There are a couple of duplicates in period 5. My error. If you did not give me a name, select one from the list that has not been taken from someone in your class.

4. Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday you will have time in class to research 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. You will use this information to write a 200 word background report on your selected photojournalist.

b. Creating a power point or Prezi presentation consisting of seven slides: a title slide that includes an image of the photojournalist with his or her name and life dates and a quote from the photographer, followed by 6 images taken by the journalist.

That is a total of 7 images....no more. Only one image should be on a slide, not a compilation.

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.

Your analysis point is 1) what has been selected or deflected and why.

Be able to answer the question, why does the image works.

Note power point attributes: NO WHITE BACKGROUNDS
                                               On the slide with the picture of the photographer, you must include a quote from the photojournalist.
                                                One very large image per slide and a cut line only.
                                                Remember that the point of a power point is to support you and your knowledge. Know your material and talk about it. You may use notes, but should absolutely not read off a piece of paper. Engage the audience through your body language, eye contact and  voice.

Presentations are Thursday and Friday, March 26 and 27. Yup, we'll probably run over to after break, but we'll go by volunteers first and then by drawing. So if your name is called- or you are not listed with a LEGAL absence- you'll receive a generous 50 points.

So what does everyone need to turn in exactly on Thursday, March 26?

1. A graphic organizer, a copy of which is located at the end of this blog.

2. Your minimum 200 word background paragraph on your selected photographer. Please include 3 sources- no Wikipedia!
3. On the 26th you should be ready to share out your power point to the class.

NOTE THAT THERE WILL BE NO CLASS TIME ON THE 26th to use a computer.
