Analysis Paper: Stories and narratives Photography is more complicated than click and shoot. It is about telling a story. Even simple portraitscan tell complex narratives. These photographs convey ideas, concepts, and paradigms. Sometimes it is capturing a specific moment while many times, it is staging a set or multiple set, or editing multiple images through darkroom or post production manipulation. Please take some time and browse through these articles and ted talk for a better understanding of visual storytelling. https://contrastly.com/storytelling/ https://www.magnumphotos.com/theory-and-practice/telling-stories-single-image-series/ https://www.nationalgeographic.com/travel/intelligent-travel/2013/05/03/do-yourpictures-tell-a-story/ https://streetbounty.com/art-storytelling-photography/ https://www.david-campbell.org/2010/11/18/photography-and-narrative/ https://www.keptlight.com/narrative-and-meaning-in-photography/ https://www.ted.com/talks/david_griffin_on_how_photography_connects Please write a 4 page paper (NOT COUNTING REFERENCES): 1) introducing the artist(s) of your choice, give a little background (0.5 points) 2) explain the reasons why this particular photographer stands out to you (0.5 points) 3) analyze one or more of the artist’s work a.

The Tips doc has a list of vocabulary that will be very useful in writing the paper. You may choose from this list of photographers. I am introducing you to many contemporary artists from all over the world. These are photographers that work on their personal art projects AND make a living in the advertising/commercial world. You can choose works from their commercial projects or their personal work.
