Weekly Photography-in-the-News writing assignment....Due EACH Tuesday, Typed, beginning of class.

Photography in the News
Points: 10 per written response


Expectations: Each weekend, you will comb the news for anything photography related. I suggest making a google news alert. I will also share a few curated resources online that are good places to start.

Things to look for: Articles talking about the history of photography, photography-related court cases. (paparazzi lawsuits, etc.), contemporary issues with photography (trends, photography exhibits), new camera technologies. Etc, etc, etc.

What to turn in each Tuesday: A short, TYPED, written response that A) summarizes the news story and B) your response to what you read. This can be a few short paragraphs. (Not sentences)

INCLUDE either a printout, or link to your article, or news coverage. (Youtube link, etc.)



Then comes the fun part....each Tuesday we will break into groups at the beginning of class to discuss what you found. I will then select one or two students to present their articles so that we can discuss as a class.
