For a digital journalism class assignment, I had to photograph a person throughout the day to try and tell his story through photography. I chose my Resident Assistant, Brian Timmreck. I thought using an RA as my subject would be interesting because sometimes students simply look at the RA as the person who can get you in trouble. These photographs show that there are many different aspects of Timmreck's life and duties as an RA.
After completing a photography module on Poynter's NewsU website, I learned a lot of new information on the visual elements involved in photography and how to use them to create better photographs. Although I am still just a beginner, this project definitely helped me improve my skills.
I tried using perspective in many of my photographs, showing the duties of an RA that many residents might not normally see or pay attention to. I also took several personality portraits, trying to show the reader Brian's personality. I also used the "graphic" element in several of my photos.
