  10. THE STORY • What story do you want and need to tell? • What are the key messages? • What should be the tone and style to best communicate your key messages?

  11. THE PHOTOS • What photos will best convey the messages? • Do people taking the photos have the tools to take these photos? • What support do you need for photographers? Workshop, equipment, organizing photos • Choosing the photos - set up criteria: how many and what kinds

  12. THE VOICE • Who are the people whose voice will be represented? • Audio recording or written testimonials • Speaking about the chosen photos - scripted versus spontaneous

  13. THE AUDIENCE • Who needs to hear this story the most? Why? • Dedicate at least 1/3 of your resources to distribution • How will you reach your audience? Hard copy media, online, conferences, presentations (city council), direct e/mail, art & photo gallery

  14. THE IMPACT • What is the ideal outcome for making this Photovoice project? Specific changes to policy, reach # of people, empower further action among participants, etc. • What are the core goals? In case ideal outcomes are beyond resources? • Tie back to distribution - what will people feel? What will people do?
