Photo Assignment Calendar/Trello

Photo Assignment Steps

1. A photo request for an event or story is put in the Trello system under the Editorial *New* Photo Request column by either an editor or writer in BU Today. It will contain the who, what, when, where, and why of the story and assignment.
2. We then copy the info from the Photo Request card and paste it into a Photo Active Calendar card, placing it on the correct date if it’s an event.
   1. If the request required scheduling with a subject, the card will be made in the Photo Active Calendar after plans are made with the subject.
   2. If the card is missing information or clarity, we’d contact the writer/editor for more details.
3. The card from the Editorial *New* Photo Request column is then moved into the Editorial Scheduled Photo Request column.
4. The photo assignment will be assigned to a photographer in the Photo Active Calendar depending on who is available at the time of the assignment. If staff photographers are unable to cover an assignment, a freelance photographer will be hired.
