“Posed” photos: viewers can instantly detect the set-up aspects.

Deception is unlikely, so the TTG-IC label is usually not necessary.

• Examples of “posed” news photos: One • Two • Three

“Staged” photos: viewers cannot instantly detect the set-up aspects.

Deception is likely, so the TTG-IC label is required to meet P8.

• Thus “staged” photos can qualify as TTG if they fully meet the Trust Test (and are labeled TTG-IC as per P8).
