Assignment

Hi folks, as we talked about in class, your assignment this week (and next) is to research and propose your story idea for your final project. This should be a topic that holds your interest. It needs to be a subject that can revisit several times. It needs to be something with a real story behind it. Something you can dig you teeth into.

This is not a 2 paragraph proposal. You need to have details. Names, events, locations and the angle from which you plan to approach the story. 

Here are the examples that we saw in class:

Moment

I took this photo this past Saturday at Boomer Lake. I followed this guy and his friend around for a bit as they were playing something called Frisbee golf I believe, which I'm unfamiliar with. When I got to the lake is was really pretty and sunny, and almost immediately got cloudy and cold when I started taking photos, so I was pretty disappointed with the lighting. I liked this photo because he still has his arm fully extended after tossing it, and the Frisbee is still in view as well.

Un momento por favor

This is my moment of Ryan Stewart getting to talk to former OSU assistant coach James Dickey.
Ryan grew up a life long OSU basketball fan and said it was one of the greatest thrills in his life to talk to Dickey, who now coaches at Stillwater high.

I took this picture while baking cupcakes with my nephews. Like many kids his favorite part is licking the mixing spoon. I love this picture because it takes me back to when I was a kid and would help my mom bake :)

The only thing that bothers me is the reflection in his glasses....

This moment came from my most recent shoot with "Cowboy" Kenny Bartram. Resting between runs, Kenny emphatically described a jump on one of the new ramps at his personal track.

No matter what i did I couldn't get the blur out of the pictures, but I thought this picture was cool because the shoe is in focus but the body isn't. Hopefully this is what he wanted!
