Narrative Photograpy Step One: The Story

Narrative photography tells a story within the confines of a single image. For our work, we are going to tell a story before we take a single shot. Your assignment, therefore, is to write a one page, single-spaced narrative that we will you as a basis for creating your image.

A couple of suggestions:

• Use settings that you will have access to for your image.
• An emotional plot may be easier to capture in an image.
• Keep it simple. Don't get too many characters, settings, or events involved in your story.
• There must be a conflict in your story!

Post a copy of your written narrative to your blog.
