Hi Folks - need some help - am on PJ course and need a PJ story subject. The course project has disciplines: 10 photos - incl 1) story opening 2) subject profile 3) landscape 4) portrait 5) action 6) detail 7) Group 8) Conclusion 9) Summary 10) Final - each photo can have a short description with an opening story overview and conclusion summary. The story cannot be constructed and false it has to be factual. It has to evoke emotion and each photo should tell a story on its won and part of the photo string. apart from that its simple eh?? Please help looking forward tp your comments and ideas[/size][/font]
It sounds like you need to pick your subject of the story, first. What photographic story do you have interest in? And, what area do you have access to for photography which can be used to create a story?

Does PJ mean Photography Journalism by chance?
PJ = PhotoJournalism

Yes it does and its the story which is the problem - a story easy to photo - with emotion - a story exapmple is :- girl and favorite doll - doll found run over in road - doll goes to hospital and is mended - found doll photo sign attached to lamppost - visit from child's mother - doll reunited with little girl - smiles and tears
