Photojournalism class Assignment _ Spring 2009

Hi this is an experiment, but a real assignment.

On Sunday there are Super Bowl gatherings all over the world. Your assignment is to turn in 2 or 3 photographs that show how one person or many persons are enjoying the event, or not. This is a feature photo assignment. Look for something unusual. Please NO staging of this photo. There are many ways to photograph this assignment, beginning with people who are actually watching the game and enjoying it …. Under these circumstances I would suggest that you photograph during the game, or during the pre show or half time. There will also be people watching the game in many other circumstances. And there will of course be people who are doing something to ignore or ridicule the super bowl. Maybe there is a way of showing the connection at local parks or elsewhere. Look for a photograph that you would pay attention to.

You might try to get some interesting quotes from the people you photograph.

You must identify who they are in the caption

The deadline for this assignment is Thursday, February 5^th.

Remember I have changed the schedule. The lecture part of the class will begin at 7:00 pm. You have the opportunity to print your photographs between 4 pm and 7 pm.

Sincerely,

John
