Getting started with research

Today we started on the work that you will be doing in this class over the semester.

As I said, the work that you will be doing is focused around the work that you are doing for Tony Scott.

To start things off we are looking at the research that you are doing on your chosen photographers. I asked everyone, at the start of class, to write down what they know about their photographer. I also asked you to think about what you need to find out.

We had some discussion about the areas of research that you might look at. These areas may also suggest a possible structure for a piece of writing or presentation:

Details about life, background
Style - technique (development of style)
Locations
Work - themes
Legacy

I set a task for the 25 February for a 5-7 min presentation of evaluation of a resource associated with your research.
