The Person Behind the Camera
Start to collect biographical information about your photographer. You will be creating several blog posts as you find the following information. Make sure to add the category biography so that it will be searchable within the blog.
Focus on the following elements:
- Find at least 5 portrait of your photographer.
- Find out as much as you can about their life.
- What inspired their work?
- What significant impact did their work have on the photographic world?
- Try to find a review/critique of their work.
- What is it that makes this photographer’s work different?
- Describe their vision/style?
- If you can not answer any of these questions, email your photographer. Explain that you are a hight school student do ing a research project. Ex plain why you like their work and ask them if they could answer a couple of questions that you were having trouble finding on line.
You may not simply copy articles word for word from the Internet. Reflect on what you have seen and what you have read, and then tell me what you think about the photographer and his/her life’s work. If you use a direct quote sight the quote and link to the article in a new window.
