As we near the end of the school year, my upper level students will take on more of the teaching load. For example my advanced photo students are going to produce
videos that profile their expertise. I've been planning the activity for a while, but when
Ben (a student in the class) showed us the recent
video he shot while he was photographing his
water blur series, it became clear that the many talented photographers I work with every day need to become mentors.
Some of the things they'll teach:

Jeannie
Tyler - how to
