2. Concept
Whats the first thing you do in the morning? How do you take
your coffee? Are you always running late for the train? What
does your alarm sound like?
Whether its what you have for breakfast or the people you
cross paths with on the way to work, we want you to tell your
Morning Story.
Through text, images, video and audio, we want you to create
a snapshot of your morning ritual and share it with us via
email, Twitter, Instagram or ABC Pool. The end result will be a
collection of mornings; a collage of your daily experience.

8. Sonorous notes of spring envelope me as I wake slowly,
laconic from slumber. Shy rays of sunshine bathe my bed
spread with tepid warmth and I am instantly elated. The
covers are pushed back without trepidation and my feet
remain bare on floorboards warmed ever so slightly. There
has been a turn, a gear shift, a new path is paved towards
watermelon and sunshine.
9. Curation
Most submissions were posted on the
Tumblr page, with those of exceptional quality
being promoted on Twitter as well
Tone of submissions was demonstrated
through example posts by group members,
inspiration sourced from other sites
Face-to-face request for submissions proved
to be successful, with more of an investment
from the contributor
Those specifically requested submissions
were generally more elaborate
10. Results
Over 100 photo entries
Dozens of text entries
