Narrative and Sequencing

Narrative

STORY: What is your migrant community story?
Describe in:

  1. 3 words – A migrant community.
  2. A sentence – How migration to Jersey in the past affected current times.
  3. A paragraph – My migrant community story is about how immigration to Jersey from hundreds of years ago has affected current Jersey life and architecture in ethic areas. It focuses on the difference of buildings and genuine life within these areas, depending on which ethnic group resides there.

NARRATIVE: How will you tell your story?

Using my own images from walking round St Helier and comparing my images to images from the Jersey Archives of the same areas from the past and how these areas have changed.

AUDIENCE: Who is it for?

My story will be aimed at the older generation of immigrants to Jersey as I feel like it will resonate well with that age group and create a sense of nostalgia, as well as proving how Jersey has changed throughout the years.

Sequencing

In terms of sequencing, I want to keep a pattern of juxtaposition. To do this, I will use contrasting images of both vibrant colour as well as monochromatic images. I was also alternate between sizing and orientation, and also using double page spreads. This will create my theme of Jersey life, which will feature street photography portraits as to represent the citizens of Jersey in their day-to-day life.

Here is an example of how I would sequence my images to create juxtaposition.
