Text/Photo Projects
(grades 8-12)
 
  For several years, I've worked with photo and video students at New Trier High School. Collaborating with teachers Stephen Murphy and Kathy Pilat. After sharing examples of photo/video projects that use language in an interesting way, we then help students develop text for projects ranging from video diaries, to animating still photographs with narrative, to memory pieces. The pieces below reflect student writing and photography, using images from street photography in Chicago and suburbs.
