Good morning class
Today we are going to start the first part of our modified famous photographer project. Our first photographer is William Eggleston. I chose him for two reasons: his unbelievable use of color and his subject matter which revolves around recognizing the beauty in every day objects.
To complete the assignment to the following tasks:
1. Watch the introductory video to learn all about the aspects of the assignment.(10 min.)
First period Edpuzzle
2. Get familiar with William Eggleston and his work. (5 min.)
This video gives an inside perspective by his son who traveled and worked with his dad over the years.
First period Edpuzzle
3. Go to the following link and explore some of William Eggleston‘s photographs. (10 min.)
Select two images that are your favorite. Spend a little bit of time looking closely at the image decide why you love it and be ready to describe the image.

Really take some time and explore the site. I have included a quick loom video to guide you through how to get the most out of all the info provided.
4. Create a Flipgrid to Describe the selected photographs. (10 min)
Take your time and really give us as much detail. Don't show us the image until the end. Really use your words to describe it first.
First period Flipgrid
5. Embrace your inner William Eggleston. (Over the next week)
For the shooting assignment take at least 20 images all of completely different subjects. Explore every day objects, focus on color, light and shadow, reflections, anything that you see that you can find beauty in.
*****For this assignment there is no reason to have to leave the house. It can all be done where you are. But if you decide with the family to go on a walk or you’re already out and about keep your camera with you. No need to try to shoot it all in one sitting. Just keep the camera with you and shoot over the next week.
6. Post all elements of the assignment to your website. Post the link to the exact page when you turn in this assignment
