Now with more participation
Monday, January 4th, 2010Over the holidays I was thinking about how lucky I am to do what I do. But I was thinking about how there isn’t enough interaction with this blog. Sure, some of you post comments, and that’s great, but I’d like to generate more dialogue and participation. So, thought I, what can I do that would encourage participation & dialogue, while also helping you with your marketing. Then it came to me: assignments.
At least once a month, I’m going to post an assignment (like a theme or concept) and a due date. Your job, should you choose to accept it, will be to shoot something on that theme and to submit it before that due date. I’ll pick several and post them here for everyone to look at and talk about.
What I hope is that this will generate not only discussion among you photographers, but also spread to the other creatives, your targets, so that maybe there will be some connections made.
So, with that in mind, here is the first assignment:
Concept/theme: Peace
Due Date: 23 January 2010
EMAIL your jpegs (this is for web, so don’t make ‘em huge).
Now get off your butts and show me what you’ve got!
***UPDATE*** I should have made this clear: you have to shoot something NEW for this. The point is to get you to think and shoot; not to find an image that fits, but to MAKE an image that fits. And be creative with the theme!
