PROJECT #3: A DAY IN THE LIFE


Ian Fisher: American Soldier (CLICK HERE).

Due for developing/contact sheeting on Wednesday, March 30, 2011 (ten points).

Directions: Choose a person(s) and tell the story of their day in five photos. You will turn in a contact sheet with a minimum of 36 images, but you can (and probably should!) take more than this.

Rule: Your subject cannot be a member of your immediate family (Parent, sibling, friend).

Photographs may be more memorable than moving images, because they are a neat slice of time, not a flow. Each still photograph is a privileged moment turned into a slim object that one can keep and look at again. - Susan Sontag, On Photography by Susan Sontag
