How to write good articles and take good photos?
Hi, right now I've got practical working experience for two weeks, as a journalist and photographer. I'm going to do a report about a motorcykle club tomorrow, are there any good things to write about, and what pictures should I take? I want to know how to write good articles and how to do good reports. What questions should I ask, how should I write, what to think about, how to make my article good and attractive. how to plan my work. Any advice?
I also want to know how to take good pictures. What is important, and what makes a good picture?
And how can I be good at pictures? How can I make my pictures look special? I'm REALLY grateful if someone who's good at this can give me great advices. :D
Your question suggests only people who think they are good at this should answer and although I have had a couple of magazine pieces published I can't claim to be good at it.
But I'll give you my best ideas.
If the club has a building or meeting place try and get on the roof and photograph all the bikes from above. That should make an interesting photo. Also perhaps lie on your back and take a picture from below of a man mounted on his bike. Same unusual angle to create interest. Also get a group picture of the individuals on or near their bikes.
Questions: You are a club so how would you compare yourselves to say, the Lions club or the Elks etc? Do you do things within the community that are beneficial? Do you feel some people give bikers a bad rap? Does the law treat you fairly in your opinion? Is there any better motorcycle than a Harley in your opinion and why? What would you like the public to know about bikers in general and your club. What would you like motorists to know about dealing with bikers on the road. Do you all wear helmets and why or why not? What thing have you done together as a club that you are proudest of? What is the most memorable trip or ride you have taken as a group?
I am not a motorcyclist and these are questions I would be interested in the answers to. The club will want to be put in a good light since so many people gangsterize motorcycle groups, so give them the opportunity to show their best side. Take the angle of "Bikers are people too." approach.
These are just suggestions and the answers to some of these questions may give you a theme to work the story around. Good Luck!
