Starting a Blog!

Welcome CHS digital photography students! Blogs are a quick, easy, and convenient way to share your work with others, record ideas, and log inspirational work from others. Getting feedback from others on your work while also looking at and commenting on others work will help make you a better photographer.

Students will create blogs to post their digital photography projects, inspirational photos, thoughts and ideas. Here are the general guidelines:

1) All blogs are considered school assignments and should be treated as such and normal school standards will apply to this site since it is an assignment.

2) You should upload at least one image from each assignment as well as inspirational work from other photographers that will give you ideas for each assignment.

3) When creating your school blog, name it :

* chsphotofirstnamelastname

* Ex. chsphotojohnsmith.blogspot.com

4) Set up a profile but do not include too much information. Keep it simple and professional.

5) Please begin with an introductory statement telling everyone a little bit about yourself and the type of photography you enjoy (with a few examples of your work or the work of photographers you admire)

6) You will be required to update this blog weekly. Here are some things you can consider posting:

· New photos

· Journal style entry with thoughts about a particular style, good location for photos, problems/obstacles

· Photos you find on the Internet that will serve as inspiration for your own ideas

We will use www.blogger.com to create our blogs.
