3403 The Photo Essay
sec-
04 The Photo essay, or photo story is always a narrative. They may be
either chronological or thematic in nature. The photo essay tends
mon.- to be more encompassing than a singular image and can also be
wed. thought of as extended feature photography stories. The photo
story should be able to stand alone, it should convey the story
10:00am without the use of text.
11:50am Usually the photo story evolves over time and indicates a
purposeful decision by the photographer to create a visual
narrative. Generally, more than one shooting occasion is used to
create the group of images. Photo essays tend to be published
in books, magazines, and now on the web. They are the often
considered as one of best ways for a photojournalist to showcase
their skills.

Objectives
• To produce a series of 8 images that tells a story in a truthful
fashion – OR explore a concept thematically through the
photographic medium.

3403 Semester’s
sec- Electronic Journal
04
You are required to keep a journal of published imagery related to
mon.- the assignments and assigned readings for the class. The final ver-
wed. sion will be formatted as a single Microsoft Word document and
an Adobe Spark Story Journal. There will be 2 components to the
10:00am journals: a weekly photograph and photographs that relate specif-
11:50am ically to your assignments. When a journal entry is required for an
assignment, details will be specified on the assignment sheet. The
weekly photograph and assignment-based journals should follow
the same basic guidelines and should be news items, not enter-
tainment photos. No single source (publication / website) may be
used more than 3 times throughout the journal.

SECTION 1:
Weekly ‘Striking Photo’ Journal Entries:
Start collecting the weekly photograph during the first week of
classes (Use your Striking Photograph –Journal Entry #1). Publica-
tion date and source should be included with each photo. A total
of 13 weekly photographs will be due. You may search for appro-
priate images using the Internet search engine of your choice but
the images must be news related photos. If your image is too small
or looks like a “bunch of blocks” you need to choose a larger im-
age. A thin border is acceptable around the image.

SECTION 2:
Assignment based Journal Entries:
Assignment based journal entries are due from the following as-
signments:
Technical Portfolio (9, 3 with commentary)
Feature (3)
Illustration/Editorial (1)
Photo Essay (1 essay)

Refer to your individual assignment sheets for further details. Or-
ganization and proper spelling/grammar are strong factors in the
grade. You should organize your journal into 2 sections: weekly
images and by assignment. Assignments should be placed in the
order they were assigned.

PROCEDURE FOR CREATING THE MICROSOFT WORD DOCUMENT
On the top of each page add the following information:
Your Name
Your Section and Year (example CO 3403-4, Spring 2017)
Journal Entry: Striking Photograph Week # or Name of Assignment

Place the .jpg images into the Microsoft Word document pages. You may need to resize the
image(s) to fit on the page. Image must be at least ¾of the page width and remember that
if your image is too small or looks like a “bunch of blocks” you need to choose a larger im-
age.

Follow the directions of each pertinent assignment sheet.

Cite your references in APA format under the image, and write a paragraph describing the
image and thinking through the following questions. What drew you to the photograph? Did
you respond to the colors / tonality? Did you like the scene / subject matter? Did you find
the organization (composition) of the imagery on the page compelling? Explain to the view-
er why you picked this particular image. If you choose a news photograph, you should also
write about how well the story is conveyed through the imagery.

Insert a page break between each entry (Insert > Break > Page Break). If you are combining
multiple documents, you will need to “copy & paste” into the master document.

Save the document with the following title: (NO SPACES)
First Name Last Name_ Course #-Section _Journal.docx
Example:
AngelaLatham_CO3403-04_Journal.docx
