GRAPHIC DESIGN & LAYOUT
PHOTOGRAPHY & PHOTOJOURNALISMFind shows that are centered around photojournalism, and see how they tell their story visually. Travel shows, like Anthony Bourdain or Art Wolfe, can be great resources for seeing how photojournalism works in the real world. Documentaries like Chefs Table, or Sigur Ros's Heima, are known for their videography. These would be great options to find unique ways to visually tell the story you are in charge of telling. Before learning photography techniques, we need to learn how to responsibly tell stories visually. Once you've gained this skill, you can move on to mastering the camera. :)

PROFESSIONALISM GRADES: These grades will be posted weekly. Please refer to the professionalism rubrics posted in the classroom and on our website. These grades are EARNED not given. If you have concerns about your grade, please see me. To earn a 4 you must go above and beyond expectations. This means coming in on your own time (SOAR, lunch, before or after school.) Missed deadlines, skipping class, complaints from team members or Hela staff or students about behavior - will all result in a 0 for that week's professionalism grade.
Please do not send angry emails. Remember, this class is about building skills that will help you in the workplace. Being respectful and professional is a big part of that. Act with agency, and prepare examples of your work ethic and accomplishments for the week, and we can discuss. 2/3/2020 Bring a Mug to Class!1/21/2020 February "Bonus Check"
