5. Challenges
- Country of origin
- Focus area (e.g., urban culture, luxury travel, underground music)
- Any sample covers or social handles
- Photography Tips: Shoot on your phone, but turn the exposure down (tap the screen and slide the sun icon down). Use “Mono” or “Silvertone” filters. Look for reflections—puddles, mirrors, windows.
- Subjects to shoot: Your coffee cup at dawn, a street lamp through the rain, the back of a friend’s coat as they walk into a theater, your own silhouette on the wall.
- The Golden Rule of Foto Negro: If the light is flat, walk away. If the shadow is deep, stop and shoot.
- Movie Reviews: Get the scoop on the latest films featuring black leads and storylines.
- TV Show Recaps: Stay up-to-date on your favorite black-led TV shows.
