Assignment 3: Photo Montage

Due: April 25, 2009

Goal of this Assignment:

To create an interesting image using photos from your camera, graphic elements, text, and any other digital resources. You will have to use your composition skills, color theory, knowledge of your camera, and knowledge of Photoshop for this assignment.

Content can be anything you choose, but must contain a common theme. We are not creating photograms here. Some ideas are the four seasons, man vs. machine, man vs. food, etc.

Make sure you use a high enough resolution to get good result in your final prints.

Your montages must contain:

  • At least 5 layers
  • At least 1 of the layers must have “Layer Style”
  • You must make at least 1 “Layer Adjustment—curves, levels, saturation, etc)
  • Color or Black and White is fine
  • You can combine straight photos with scanned images and text to create an interesting composition. Or, you can use all photos if you want.
  • This will help lead into our website assignment.

Print your final pieces 8×10 or as close to 8×10 as your image’s aspect ratio will allow.

Turn In (All items must be in a folder with your name on it):

  • 2 Printed Final Pieces
