Caught Our Eye

When covering topics involving students on screens, it can be really easy to default to a dominant photo that doesn’t offer much compositionally. Rather than settling for a large photo of students looking at a computer, the Talon staff shows wonderful planning and creativity by incorporating a portrait that focuses on the Magic 8 Ball with a message “Outlook not so good.” The staff wanted to show that the school’s transition to Microsoft had been difficult, and this portrait does that perfectly. An outside-the-box approach definitely takes more coordination as a staff, but the end result is so worth it.
