* Instructions for the Visual Sociology –– Social Problems Photo Essay – Poster Contest Event

A photographic essay is a personal and integrative statement about a social problem important to the student. 

 

The five to eight photographs should

 

·        reflect the social problem under consideration

·        elicit an emotive response from the viewer

·        be a statement of public affirmation of your position on the issue.

 

Title your essay, but no written copy is to accompany the photographs other than the location where the picture was taken in fine print.  Place the photos in such an order of presentation that they “read” like an essay.  Photographs downloaded from the Internet are acceptable as long as copyright laws are not violated.  Please avoid large poster board presentations.

The due date is October 19, 2007 for topic & name.

Judges will evaluate:  appropriateness of Title, whether photographs  reflect the social problem under consideration, demonstrate a given position on the issue, elicit an emotive response from the viewer, if presentation “reads” like an essay, and all instructions were followed.  Images November 30th.

 

DEADLINE – OCTOBER 19, 2007
