April Assignment

Katie Taft, our March Guest Speaker, concluded her presentation by challenging our group with an assignment, which we shall use as the theme for our next critique/competition. Katie has asked that we construct a scene, setting-up what it is we choose to photograph, and for which there should be a narrative quality. For better ideas of how this works, and to stimulate our creative process, she has supplied the names of some artists who do just this.

Katie has asked that we construct a scene, setting-up what it is we choose to photograph, and for which there should be a narrative quality. For better ideas of how this works, and to stimulate our creative process, she has supplied the names of some artists who do just this. The following names, when each is Googled, provide immediate first page opportunities for viewing their work: “Sandy Skoglund”, “Gregory Crewdson”, and “Jeff Wall”. In addition to this theme, we will add/include photographing sculptures. For this particular assignment, we are eliminating the categories of Beginner and Experienced. Three submissions per member, in any combination of the two sub-categories of a “scene with narrative” and “sculptures”, the photographers’ choice. This is a chance to color outside the lines. Release your Inner Child. Have some fun, and please share your experience!
Submissions: One jpg photo per email, each no larger than 5MB, to Brad at Photos@BCDavidson.com, along with your name, no later than 8 AM on Monday 4/7/08.
