Week 5
Sept. 20 * * *
TOPICS: Photojournalism editing for print and Web; photojournalism ethics
DUE: Update your blog
READ: Kobré "B" (see Books)
EXAMINE: Living Proof, from Magnum in Motion (don't worry about the video; pay attention to the photo composition, variety and pacing) -- we will discuss these pictures in class. There is a pause control at lower left, below the photo (roll over to see it). You can also use this control to review the pictures one by one. (Length: 12 minutes.)
BLOG: Take notes as you read the book. When you've finished all the reading, make a new blog post about what you've learned. Summarize the points you most want to remember. (This will be your second photojournalism post. It will be graded within your Blogging 2 assignment.)
In Class Today * * *
We will be editing photos in Photoshop during class today. BRING YOUR PHOTO files from last week.
