Caption Tips

Write Captions in active voice. Tim runs... John scores the winning shot... Tina cries... Seniors dance the night away...

Avoid 'ing' and never let it dangle!

Use complete sentences

Tell us more than what's simply in the photo

Quotes add human context

Look for interesting points of view
Interview a coach, a parent, a fan, a kid on the bench, a freshman... their PoV is often fresher than the star's.
