tutorial: the photoessay | FLOW MEDIA
Today i wanna give you a short introduction on how to do a photoessay, based on my experiences, so as always there might be better or more compelling ways. So feel free to add those in the comments. The photoessay is also, when it comes to multimedia productions, the body of it as it tries to tell a story, so it is interesting to get a bit into that. Here are some ideas to think about. 1. Topic: At first and before any further thoughts what pictures you might need, you should think about the topic. 2. 3. 4. 5. The establishing shot gives you an introduction and shows you where the story is taking place. The medium shot is leading into the subject. The close-up is a classic detail shot, giving you important single parts of the story. The portrait is bringing the subject close and personal. The moment is giving you special moments of the story.

CiteLighter – Handy online research, citation, bibliography, sharing tool
Yes. I admit it. I watch the Food Channel. So sue me. It’s not like I’m addicted or anything. But I don’t watch as much since Alton Brown’s Good Eats was moved to a weekday morning time slot. The only one-task item you need in your kitchen is the fire extinguisher. His argument? Yeah. I had a flashback to Alton Brown and Good Eats this morning while reviewing a new online tool I recently ran across called CiteLighter. CiteLighter is a browser plugin that gives users the ability to collect online information, store it online, make comments on that information, add auto-researched Knowledge Cards to your project, automatically create a formatted bibliography from all of that information, edit that bibliography, share your project via email, export your project to Word, and learn tons of stuff / get an A in the process. It’s the ultimate Alton Brown multi-tasking tool. I’ve attached a PDF saved from the Word export option to give you an idea of what the final version might look like. Like this:
Works Cited, References, and Bibliography -
For a detailed treatment on citing sources using MLA style with many more examples, please use the official MLA Handbook: All information relating to MLA style as presented in this Web site has been based on this authoritative publication from the Modern Language Association of America. Gibaldi, Joseph. MLA Handbook. 6th ed. New York: MLA, 2003. Works Cited is sometimes referred to as References. Works Cited and Bibliography are not the same. Entries in Works Cited, References, or Bibliography are put in alphabetical order by last names of authors, editors, translators, etc. or by first words of titles. If the first word of the title is "The", "A", or "An", and the word is being used as an article, e.g., in the title: The Little Book of Irish Clans, the entry is placed under "Little" and the article "The" is ignored. Sometimes the article "The" is used as part of the name of a company or magazine or journal for emphasis, e.g., The Champ, or The Sports Network. Remember: 1. 2. 3. 4.
