Big Idea - How can I inventively create 7 realistic changes to this photo to challenge copyright protection and convey my individual voice?

Assignment 6 - Statue of Liberty.jpg

Learning Goal - To gain a strong understanding of the use of Adobe Photoshop tools to manipulate an image and create an entirely new work. 

Learning Outcomes - understanding of; 

  • File saving formats

  • File Sizing        

  • Tools - cloning tool, various selection tools, layers and masks, adjustment layers, transform/scale and warp tools, healing tools, colouring methods etc.

  • Methods/tools used for success based on individual ideation.   

Goal;

To create a minimum of 7 changes using Adobe Photoshop to the back and white image provided. This original image can be found on the classroom server in the lesson 6 folder.  Possible changes could include colour (colour counts as a max. of two changes), adding people, changing the sky, adding additional images etc.  All of the photographs used in this assignment must be taken by you. Think about scale, depth of field and foreground, middle ground and background when manipulating your image.  Your final image must appear to be as realistic as possible. 

 

I will be demonstrating all the steps in class but if you are away on a demo day or need a review of these steps please see the video tutorials at the bottom of the page.
