Student Ministry “Not-Of-This-World” Photo Shoot, September 20, 2009, after
Sunday School class: Preparation Instructions

1. Choose what you’re going to wear as well as what else you want in the picture. Remember, if you’re on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine, the photographer wants to capture something that is uniquely YOU. So, think through the clothes you’re going to wear, accessories you want (musical instruments, hats, sporting equipment, etc.) that say something about who you are and what you’re about!
2. Find a MEDIUM to write on that is NOT LARGER than 22” x 28”. IT CAN BE SMALLER, BUT NOT LARGER. It needs to be a light color that you can write LARGE & DARK ENOUGH for the words to be seen. It can be anything that size: An actual poster board you purchase, a sheet of butcher paper you cut to that size, a paint canvas, a cardboard box you cut out, a piece of plywood—USE YOUR IMAGINATION, and make sure it’s within size limits.
3. Design the sign that will be in the picture with you—EVERYBODY WILL HAVE THEIR SIGN IN THEIR PHOTO! That’s the point! You can choose if you’ll hold it or where you’ll put it in your picture but you will have a sign made BEFORE YOUR PHOTO SHOOT. You can choose from the following words or phrases, AND YOU NEED TO CONTACT BRENT to RESERVE YOUR PHRASE (each person is supposed to have something different than all the rest!) and they’re first come, first served, but ONLY THESE WORDS CAN BE ON YOUR SIGN and they need to be readable—so be choosy with what you want to put around/through/behind the words!
