A sentence
i will be photographing 2 weeks of isolation due to being tested positive for COVID 19
A paragraph
My photo book will have a series of photographs on how being tested positive has affected the life of a family. Having to self isolate for 2 weeks has affected them physically and mentally so therefore, i will try a capture photographs of their emotions, reactions and activities that they did through out the 2 weeks.
Design: Consider the following
- How you want your book to look and feel -my photobook will be a hard cover, with a smooth feel to it.
- Paper and ink – the paper will be a ‘classic’ due to its Smooth semi-matte finish and High brightness, excellent colour reproduction.
- Format, size and orientation
- Binding and cover
- Title – locked up ore isolation
- Structure and architecture
- Design and layout – i will have single and double pages photographs
- Editing and sequencing – all photographs will be in black and white (monochrome) showing life during isolation
Kevin : you seem to have most sections under control here, but you must aim to develop your essay so that it is clearly underpinned by the theoretical learning you have done in class recently.
The photographers you have chosen : frame their methodology with theory / history / tradition and use the literary source material to help you with key texts and important quotes

Your title may need expanding a little — as it may limit your thinking and writing. See me or Mr Toft for help with this
