Assignment 5: Telling Stories
A
picture is worth a thousand words
For
the last week of the Pure Photo Workshop I want you to make a series of photographs that
are intended to tell a story or evoke a series of emotions in the viewer.
Preparation:
You
can take a look at magazines, children’s books (prentenboek), the newspaper,
comics, the Telling Stories pinboard or anything else that may inspire you.
Choose
a theme and make a plan or choose to take spontaneous photos to form your
story.
A story
can exist of an introduction, a plot and a conclusion.
When
planning your story you can think of the following points: Find a subject of
your story and a setting. Create your shot list(opening, close up, wide angle,
action, closing etc.). Get to know your subject (find information, look,
explore etc.). Take the shots. Edith your story with your theme in mind.

Assignment:
Make
a story that exists of 2 till 6 photos. If you like you can also tell us a little about the
story – or just let the pictures speak for themselves. The story can be obvious
to everyone that sees the photos or leave people guessing what happened.
Try to
make the photos in your style, take the point of view in consideration, maybe
add motion or water in the story, make use of framing or other things you
learned the past weeks.
Be
creative: add words on the photos if that helps, use a collage if that works,
use symbols in your photos if you like that, add humour if that fits, anything
that will make your story wonderful.
