Creative Process for Narrative Photography

Narrative photography on studio

“You have reached the end of the course. Thank you very much for accompanying me on this adventure. I hope you have learned a lot during this course and that it will be of great help to you so that you can create unique photographic series. For the course project you will have to make a photographic series for an editorial of 4-6 images in a studio or in a controlled environment, of the theme that you prefer. Use as a base the creative process to arrive at the idea and the different resources of the visual narrative to tell a story... your story! Before I say goodbye, I'd like to show you an example of how I expect to see your project: The idea Answer the questions that will lead you to the topic of your project. Do a brainstorming where you put all the words that you can think of about the subject you want to photograph, choose 3 keywords and from those you get the final theme of your project. The storyboard Lean on your brainstorming to represent your theme with 4 photos, then make a storyboard to define the final photos.

The mood board Make a mood board where you can define the narrative resources such as: light, poses, color palette, art direction, etc. This way you will have a document to communicate to your team. The session and the photographs Carry out the shooting of your project and select the most powerful photos. Make the adjustments you consider necessary and choose the order in which you will present your project. Share your project by clicking "Create your project". In addition to the photographs of each stage of the process, share a short text in which you talk about your experience in carrying it out. I will give you feedback as soon as possible. However, I ask you to be patient, as it may take a while for me to reply to you. While you wait, I invite you to exchange ideas and advice with the rest of your classmates. See you!”
