| Marie Colvin, Female war photographer |
- There are many female war photographers, who capture iconic images of the most shocking and disturbing things.
- "Some of today’s top conflict photographers just happen to be women."- Aimee Baldridge
- Women photographers now work on the front lines of the news, where fear and violence are standard occupational hazards. But beyond the chaos and carnage, there are also extraordinary moments of humanity and heroism.
After researching war photographers,we decided it would be fitting for the job of the protagonist. The reason that we have decided this is because of the effects it has on people: watching this trauma going on can have horrific consequences.
An example of a iconic female war photographer is Marie Colvin. She was injured which is the reason she wears her eye patch. She then risked her life taking her war images and was killed in bombings in Syria. This demonstrates the risks that these women go through to show the world the horrific truths of war.
I documented my research using a scoop-it:
Developing the central character as a war photographer adds realistic background reasons for her psychological problems as well as adding visual interest to the cinematography. This is a valuable addition. You have undertaken useful research into war photography and increased your technological skills through learning how to use Pinterest as a research tool.
