Group Activity: Photobooks
- Round 1 [5 mins per book]
- Read the photobook from the beginning.
- Tell us what the work is about and why you thought that way.
- Then pass the book to the next group.
- Round 2
- Do you want to add to what the book is saying?
- Which ones are the anchor photos?
- Or are all the photos equally contributing?
- Round 3
- Given what two groups have said, what would you title this book?
- Does the cover or title match your reading?
- What text can you find and what is it doing?
- Round 4
- How does the size of the book change the way you hold and read it?
- How does the length (number of pages) shape the pacing?
- What paper is it printed on (glossy, matte, uncoated) and how does it affect the look and feel of the photos?
- Would the work say the same thing at a different size, length, or on different paper?
