  1. Photo Essay Evaluation By Kyle Boten

  2. Characteristics of the Genre • The characteristics I focused on were to make the audience feel uplifting and joyous. I also wanted the audience to feel as though they were traveling the globe at sporting events. • My audience for the piece was my GT class and teacher of the class and (possibly in the future) parents. • Some mentor texts that inspired me to create this were biographies of famous sport players and books of different cultures studies.

  3. Writing Process • The idea for this piece started when I was looking at photo essays online when I saw one for food people eat across the globe. I thought an around the world type essay would be a great idea. I also read and article about Brazil winning a soccer tournament when the two articles combined into my photo essay. • I had to research sports from corners of the globe and learn how they were played by using Google. I found my images by figuring out the name of sports and Google-ing the sport name. I also searched for uplifting music to fit my genre.

  4. Technology Technology skills I applied during this project were learning how to use PhotoStory 3 and learning what kinds of music fit moods. For example, when I wanted my slides to feel uplifting, I didn’t want to make it sound like the commercials for abused animals. I had to learn what was best fitting by searching uplifting on FreePlayMusic.com. When I was learning how to use PhotoStory 3, I had to think of it as something other than a new program, but one that I know how to work.

  5. Affective Development I learned that I like sports more than I really thought. For example, I would only play tag and think that football was a sport for jocks. Know I know that sports are actually one of my core values. I have now realized that I enjoy photos more than I used to. For example, when I looked at photos, I saw them as pictures and not moments.

  6. Evaluation I think my work was very amazing and that the effort I put it paid off at the end of it all. In 1 to 10 scale I’d say 8.5. I am proud of my musical choices because they were very happy and enjoyable. I am proud of these because it took a lot of time to find the music needed Some of the challenges I faced were narrating while many others were too. I had to wait my turn even when others didn’t notice I was working. For my next project, I’d like to use PhotoStory again but to summarize a book (just an idea) with pictures and narration. I would like this because while PhotoStory 3 is fresh in my mind, and I’m interested in pictures and reading novels.
