SIDELINE SCHOOL
Rituals: the team tent and the long day
The car ride, the warm-up laps, the team tent, the snack after.
How to shoot it
- Step 1
The team tent
Track meets are long, and teams wait under a tent. Shoot it wide: the bags, the snacks, the team.
- Step 2
The car home
Sunburn, the medal, the sleep in the back seat. One frame on the way home. Take it parked, or hand the phone to whoever isn’t driving.
Pro tip
Meets are mostly waiting. The tent is the season.
