ASSIGNMENT: Photo Story 2/Multimedia Project

Due on the server by Tuesday, April 28, at 7 p.m. is your final audio slide show. This should be approximately 90 seconds in length. 

(For those who were at the Honors Day ceremony, the handout for SoundSlides is on the class site. See me or a friend for more info.) (Oh, and the Audacity handout is there, as well.)

Remember to convert your captions into cutlines so that they flow from one image to the next. When you're done, export, rename the "publish_to_web" folder and submit the whole folder to the server. 

And, of course, test your project - double click on the index.html file inside your renamed "publish_to_web" folder and make sure it works. 

ASSIGNMENT: Photo Essay (part 1)

Find a person to profile, someone with a good story to tell and who can tell it. You will need to make 4-6 visits over the next few weeks, so make sure access won’t become an issue.

By 7 p.m., Tuesday, April 7, have a 3-5 photo package on the server, including one portrait.

ASSIGNMENT: Campus Feature

One feature photo from the UGA campus, due on the server by 7 p.m. on Tuesday, March 31. 

Look for a great moment, a telling slice-of-life image that speaks to what living, studying or working on the UGA campus is like in 2009. Think about composition and light, use them to advance the story.

Burnett in Vietnam

Here's the post I mentioned (to the afternoon section) about how David Burnett missed the photo of Kim Phuc running after being hit with napalm in Vietnam. (This came up when someone asked how Nachtwey managed to reload film in combat situations.)

Regardless of this instance, Burnett is still my hero ...
