Photo Story

The Photo Story method stimulates creative thinking and encourages fresh perspectives. By viewing thematically relevant series of images, participants collect words that spontaneously come to mind. These words are then used to formulate creative sentences, which are discussed within the group.

Organisation

  • Complexity
    Simple
  • Group size
    1 to 14 persons

This activity is suitable online.

Description Long

Three image sequences, each consisting of five pictures related to the topic, are prepared. When selecting the images, care should be taken to include images that are as contrasting as possible, in order to encourage a broader perspective on the theme. The sequences are projected using a beamer, with each image shown for a few seconds. During this time, each participant writes down three words that spontaneously come to mind. The exercise is repeated two or three times. After the slideshow, each person selects three words from their list and uses them to formulate a sentence related to the topic. These sentences are then read aloud to the group.

Preparation

  • Search for contrasting images that highlight the topic from different perspectives (e.g., plastic in the ocean, clean-up efforts related to ocean plastic, and alternative products to plastic).
  • Provide writing materials or digital tools so that participants can document their words and sentences.

Execution

  1. Explain the process and the aim of the method.
  2. Project the images, with each image displayed for 5 to 10 seconds.
  3. Participants write down three words for each image.
  4. Participants select their preferred words and use them to formulate a sentence.
  5. The results are discussed within the group.

Hints from experience

  • Online: Use tools such as Miro or Mentimeter to collect the words and sentences digitally.
