Assessment Tasks: Photo Essay and Reflections

A photographic essay is a form of visual storytelling, a way to present a

narrative through a series of images. A great photo essay is powerful, able to evoke
emotion and understanding without using words. A photo essay delivers a story
using a series of photographs and brings the viewer along your narrative journey.
A photo essay tells a story in pictures and there are many different ways to
style your own photo essay. With wide range of topics to explore, a photo essay can
be though-provoking, emotional, funny, unsetting, or all of the above but mostly, they
should be unforgettable.

Task Procedure:
1. Research about the topic. Conduct online searches, read website or the
course reference book to find out more the topic about Human Stages of
Development.
2. Choose your subject. It could be you or any members of the family.
3. Create an outline. Once you have your subject and permission to shoot, take
a few moments to sketch out an idea of what photos you will need. Most
essays need a variety of images to showcase the various aspects of the topic.
4. Take many shots but only include the key photos necessary.
5. Choose your 8-10 images. Make your final selections.
6. Your final images can be captioned to help enhance your visual narrative, but
if you feel like your images could use some text, add it. However, if you think
the images can stand on their own, then you can present them as they are.
