"So, it turns out that next week is already our last class," said Prompto, at the beginning of class, looking a little stunned by this revelation and shaking his head, "so that means it's actually time to dole out your final assignment, but it's going to be a pretty easy one. For next week, I just want you guys to put together a portfolio of work showing off some of the skills you've picked up in this class, and what you've learned, what you've liked, maybe even a little of what you didn't, and we'll do over them. Pretty simple, right? But, obviously, if you have any questions, you know I'm here for them.

"Today, though," he said, "I figured we'd delve into another documentary, especially since there's just a lot of good film media out there about photography, and it'd be a shame to let it go to waste. Maybe you'll find some good inspiration in there, too. So let's just settle in and get going; it's another look at another well-known and notable Earth photographer, someone who wasn't even a photographer professionally, she was a hobbyist, like I've been most of my life, but her work found new life after she passed on. Really interesting stuff, and maybe good inspiration for a conversation afterwards. Really interested to hear your thoughts!"

And, with that, he dimmed down the lights and got the documentary started.

Taking a camera with you!

Any questions about your final portfolio for next week? Best ask them now before getting into the movie, although they can definitely be asked whenever you think of them, too!

A documentary on the late Vivian Maier, a nanny whose previously unknown cache of 100,000 photographs earned her a posthumous reputation as one of the most accomplished street photographers.

And after yesterday's conversation with Liliana? The feeling of kinship he feels with Maier and her desire to just constantly capture the world around her hits even harder than before.

He's obviously there. There might be feels, but he's never let that stop him before!
