Your proposals should be a minimum of 4 paragraphs long, with 5 sentences minimum per paragraph. In your proposals, you should explain:
- What is your idea for your Tableau project? What narrative are you choosing to work with? Is this an existing narrative or one you have made up? Explain briefly what happens in your chosen narrative.
- Why are you choosing the narrative you've chosen for your project? What are you drawing on for inspiration? How can you best communicate your conceptual ideas through photographs? Make sure that your concept aligns with the project goal for Tableaux images.
- How are you going to shoot your images this weekend? Do you have ideas for images in mind? Will you need to secure models for your shoot? Will you need any special props to make your images? Detail any equipment or technical needs here. (For example, if you plan to do long exposures, you will need a tripod. Or, perhaps you want a wider angle image, so you will need a wide angle focal length lens.)
- Where and when do you plan to create your images? Do you have a set location or locations in mind? What kind of light will you need to make your photographs? Be aware that quality of light/time of day can communicate a mood or idea. For example, images made at twilight can signify a turning point between the safety of daytime and the covert, potentially threatening time of night.
