Need help telling a story.
 

I am in need ideas for a narrative series for photo class. My previous series of kitties scheming to steal the treats was denied. please help I need to take 4 pictures that tell a story. Nothing comes to mind as of now though.

Whose ever idea I like most will get a 5er.

Mark

Sharpening a knife sounds like something you could illustrate with 4 pictures....

How about lighting a cigar.

Re: Need help telling a story.
 

How about the growth of a plant or crop? Maybe you could find corn in four stages of growth? Good luck!

A series showing how you use a cigar to unwind. First picture is something busy, a desk with papers and a open notebook. Second picture is quitting time, a photo of a watch showing 6-22pm. Third picture is coming home, the humidor and beer fridge in the back, 4th picture is nub cigar in ashtray, empty beer glass with suds still clinging to the side and your feet up in the distance.

The story, work hard, come home, relax with a stogie.

Gluck.

Liking the ideas so far. Keep em coming.

A series demonstrating how to procrastinate....

Edit: Although that might not be able to tell a story alone. Maybe installing computer software (pics of the purchase, opening the box, the screen with the install going, then you using the software)

I like the life cycle idea. But as easily offended as these mamby pambies are in this class I would be yelled at lol. :hm maybe I should do that for the sole purpose of pissing someone off. :ss

Re: Need help telling a story.
 

What happens if you featured KFC's new healthier grilled chicken vs. the delicious, greasy and addictive original recipe... would that help to ease concerns?

No you aint.

Re: Need help telling a story.
 

They might yell but it will be thought and conversation provoking

Re: Need help telling a story.
 

Go steal stuff at shilala.com for the chicken idea.
You can steal pics, too. Even pics of chickens in the eggs.

Re: Need help telling a story.
 

I checked that out. Is there something that you don't do Scott?:dance:

Re: Need help telling a story.
 

Thanks Scott i checked it out and there are many awsome pictures but they are too small for my needs. Needs to be able to print at 8x10 at 300 dpi

Re: Need help telling a story.
 

You oughta ask me for the originals. That might help. ;)
I might be able to find them.

Re: Need help telling a story.
 

That site doesn't belong to me anymore. The ex got it in the divorce, although I own the content. I have another chicken site, too. I own it with a partner. It's called eggbid.com.
I'm just waiting for the ex to run shilala.com into the ground so I can get my domain name back.
No. There's nothing I don't do. You wouldn't even believe it if I told you. :r
