Photo Blog #50: Using Props

f Aperture: 1.8, Shutter Speed: 1/60, ISO 138

For this particular project, I thought it would be a fun idea to tell a story that’s been happening recently at Freestyle: Jake’s attempts to get the students of Freestyle to collaborate with him in making the Freestyle yearbook. I thought that the marker and whiteboard would make for a good prop – as it’s telling the story of Jake’s frustrations of having to create these messages over and over again. I considered taking a photo of simply Jake’s messages, but I thought it would be a more interesting picture if I captured him while he was in the process of writing. (And I did get his permission to take this picture and use it for the project.)
