One Subject, Multiple View Questions
Directions: Select and open up your One Subject...final
photographs in separate post - label each with the 'view' it represents. Then open up Word and create a
new document. Answer the following questions below in the Word Document. Email your answers to me by Friday Oct 18. 5PM.
- You DO NOT have to copy and
paste the questions onto the Word Document, but if it helps you, go ahead.
Just simply number your answers on the document.
- There is no requirement for length of answers--I’m just looking to see if you are observing and reflecting.
The Questions:
1. Which one of your
photographs is the most successful in terms of composition? Give
supporting statements of why (for ex. a successful use of light/dark or
positive/negative space, the subject is placed most effectively in a particular
photo, a perspective shot is more engaging, etc.)
2. Which one of
your photographs “tells a story” or has the potential for a constructed
narrative (story) most effectively? Please explain why.
3. Based on the
viewpoint, which one of your photographs “pulls in” the viewer so that he or
she actually “feels” like they are part of the scene? Please explain why.
4. Do anyone one
of your photographs appear more “artistic” in interpretation, or have more of
an “art” feel than others (trying to create an interesting image for “arts
sake”)? Which one and why?
5. Out of all your
photos, which one highlights the subject most effectively, and elevates their
importance? Please explain how and why.
