Photo-Journalism–Planning!
05 Dec 2013 Comments Off on Photo-Journalism–Planning!
- Create a “working headline” prior to going out. The working headline is a short phrase that explains the pending article—why is one making these photographs? What is the article about? “Animals on Campus” might be an article about the barn and the animals.
- What do you already know or think you know about the subject?
- What questions do you have about the subject? Try to think of 12…
Example:
- What kind of animals do we have?
- Who takes care of the animals?
- What about during the summer/vacation?
- Do the animals get entered in the fair?
- Do they belong to the school?
- Are they purchased or donated?
- Do they all eat the same kind of food?
- Do they ever have babies?
- Do they get eaten?
- Does the soap come from our goats milk?
- What does the name on the barn mean?
- How big is the fenced in area?
- Is it really electric? Could it hurt the animal? Could it hurt me?
Who might be a good source? Think of several people.

RALEIGH — The N.C. Forest Service’s Urban and Community Forestry Program is accepting entries for its 2014 Arbor Day Photo Contest.
The contest is open to North Carolina students in fifth through 12th grades, including public, private and home schools.
The theme is “Young and Old.” “The theme reflects not just the beauty of North Carolina’s trees and forests, but also the values and benefits that many generations have enjoyed,” said Agriculture Commissioner Steve Troxler.
The competition will be divided into fifth through eighth grades and ninth through 12th grades. A panel of judges will select a winner from each division and one grand prize winner. Honorable mentions may also be awarded.
Winners of each division will receive $50 and a tree to plant on their school grounds. The grand prize winner will receive $150, a tree to plant at school and a framed reproduction of the winning photo.
To enter, participants should download and complete an entry form, and include a caption and photographer’s statement. One photo per photographer may be entered.
Entry forms and a list of submission requirements can be found under the http://ncforestservice.gov/Urban/Urban_Forestry.htm Urban and Community Forestry link on the N.C. Forest Service website at http://ncforestservice.gov ] http://ncforestservice.gov.
Entries will be judged on how well the photo and caption express the contest theme; overall aesthetics of the photo; evidence that the student researched the benefits and importance of trees in communities as related to the contest theme; how well the photographer’s statement addresses the contest theme; spelling and grammar. All decisions of the judges are final.
Winners will be selected and notified by March 14. Prizes will be awarded at the N.C. Arbor Day celebration on March 22 in Raleigh.
