Exploring the Frame: Storytelling in Stills [Course Assignment]
Through this assignment, I reviewed the iconic works of Gordon Parks and Stanley Kubrick with a focus on composition. I made note of the different composition techniques that both of these photojournalists have used in their work. I learned about how the concept of composition derived hundreds of years ago from paintings and how filmmakers and photographers have since borrowed techniques from it. I love the concept of composition and how it helps create a scene, its environment and the emotional state of said environment. For this project, I revisited some of my own original photographs from a photo essay I did in 2015 called “A Love Story.” It was an amazing trip down memory lane.
