And so the story begins… In the fun & friendly town of FOTOVILLE. A group of yearbook students strived to take unique & fabulous pictures!
PERSONALITY ACTION REACTION Yearbook journalists… were taking literally hundreds & thousands of great photos for their student publications…
But as time passed… with each photo they took the quality slowly became more mundane with less storytelling of the Fotovillians & friends…
NO FOCUS BORING Unbeknownist… to these fine Fotovillian photographers, Lazy Larry and his other lazy friends had also settled into town. Their bad habits & lackluster ways were soon the norm of all middle school publication photographs…
Now, in almost every situation & circumstance, mediocrity had taken over & this became the norm for the once fabulous Fotovillian photographers…
Finally, one dreadfully dreary day, someone spoke up from the student body. “Enough is enough! Your images have just got to be more powerful than a locomotive…”
And, for the perfect angle on any photograph, you should be willing to leap tall buildings in a single bound…
Not to mention, you have to empower your X-ray vision as a photographer so you can anticipate the subject’s every move…
