11 BOOK


2++ Contact Sheets
8++ Prints in a Book
All images have a similar theme
Cover with a title and your name (cover can be the same image as one in book).

Photograph a basic topic (i.e. flowers) and compile a series of 8 (or more) photos in a book. Each image should have a strong composition and be able to stand on its own, but share a common thread. The book should be no more than 5 x 7 in size (unless you have it published) and must have a cover that reflects the contents of the book with a title and your name. Each image should be framed in a consistent and unique way that showcases your series effectively. You must take at least two "rolls" (min. 20 images each) or engage in 2+ shoots to construct your series and submit at least 2 contact sheets of your idea development. You can also further develop your ideas from you "Photographer" Project.
