The Photo essay is a collection of images that are stylistically or thematically unified in order to tell a story. We will explore the idea of story and how to capture the audience and tell a particular tale. The class will cover basic photography, and the students will be able to tell a fiction or non-fiction story. The class will shoot on 35mm cameras, and we will critique and discuss each other’s work, as well as looking at master photographers’ works and essayists. The year will end with a final gallery showing of the students’ work.

Graylen Gatewood: Proposal & Inspiration Slideshow

Proposal:
For my photo essay, I want to make a series of images that convey a feeling of happiness. I think I can achieve this by shooting people doing what they love, and what makes them happy. For example, my mom loves playing guitar. I would shoot her playing guitar. This ties in with my "philosophical ideas" from media class, that everyone should be happy, and that's what is most important in life.
