  1. Markus

    Right, the photography club needs the poster for their exhibition by Friday. I've got the brief here.

  2. Lena

    Great. What does it actually say?

  3. Markus

    Hang on, let me read it. 'Let the pictures do the talking. Keep text minimal.' That's basically all there is.

  4. Lena

    Sorry, could you read that first bit again? 'Let the pictures do the talking' – what does that mean?

  5. Markus

    'Let the pictures do the talking.' I think that means the photos should be the main thing, not loads of text. But it doesn't say which ones.

  6. Lena

    Right. And 'keep text minimal' – does that mean no text at all, or just a few words?

  7. Markus

    I'd say a few words. People need the date and the venue, don't they? Otherwise nobody knows where to go.

  8. Lena

    Fair point. So we just include the essential information – club name, date, venue. Not whole paragraphs.

  9. Markus

    Yeah. But I'm still not sure about the pictures part. Do they want specific ones, or just any from the club?

  10. Lena

    It doesn't say. Just to check: do they want photos that work on their own, without captions?

  11. Markus

    That's what I'd guess, yeah. Photos that work without explanation. But I could be wrong.

  12. Lena

    Same here. We should check with Mr Hartley before we start choosing. I don't want to finish the whole thing and then find out we got it wrong.

  13. Markus

    Good idea. I'll message him tonight and ask what he meant. Does he want specific photos, or can we choose?

  14. Lena

    And in the meantime, we can get started. I'll sort out the wording – club name, title, date and venue.

  15. Markus

    Just to check – that's four bits of info. The brief says minimal. Have I got that wrong?

  16. Lena

    It means only what people need. I'll keep it to three lines: club name, title, then date and venue together.

  17. Markus

    Right, fair enough. So I'll wait for Mr Hartley's reply about the photos, and you sort out the text.

  18. Lena

    Deal. Let's meet in the library tomorrow at lunch and put it all together.

  19. Markus

    Perfect. See you there.
