Check These Photos Out

Jonathan Gray appears to be a workout warrior. They have his name on the 4th picture doing chin-ups, and I thought it was a mistake...until seeing his picture again later with Jordan Hicks.

 
I've said repeatedly that it amazes me that we can have a photographer in the Oval Office during times of international crisis, but we can't have a photographer giving us insight into the football program at Texas.

Find an undergrad to take pictures during practice and especially during the games. Give them a set number of frames (25?) to tell the story. Have him submit his choices to Nick Voinis' office for approval and then upload them onto the web. During the game, have the pics uploaded closer to real time but keep the number set so there aren't so many they are just a blur. We have plenty of photographers grabbing action shots during the game. What we hardly get to see are quality layouts of pictures of the program.

The images would all be copyrighted, but give a license to the bloggers who apply for one and who are approved (decide on whatever criteria is appropriate, work out whatever deal is appropriate with mainstream media). Let the bloggers and websites use the pics to accent their stories.

I also liked the 360 degree panoramic picture of the Baylor game in the 2012 season (I haven't seen one since). That was an interesting way to show the action in the stands during the game.
