Thursday

Turn in an updated link to your visual journal. Start making photos for Self Portrait.

For this next image you will combine two or more photos to create a moody self portrait that describes who you are.

Last week you learned about how to use layer masks in Photoshop. You will use this technique along with lighting in a creative and expressive way to reveal something interesting or personal about you in a portrait that you take of yourself. If you are an athlete you may want to photograph something that relates to a sport. If you are a dancer maybe you choose something that relates to dancing. If you are a writer maybe a book, letters, or a pencil may relate to you.

Beginning steps:

•  I can sketch multi-image self portrait ideas using a WACOM tablet and pen on a letter sized Adobe Photoshop document.

Note how you would like to use light in your photograph.

• I can open my online portfolio and write a paragraph, using good grammar and punctuation, about what my multi-image portrait will say about me.
•  After brain storming and sketching ideas I can work with an elbow partner and begin making photographs of myself and objects in preparation to create a multi image self portrait using Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop.

It is important to take a moment and reflect about who you are and what is important in your life as you carefully consider what you want to say in your multi image self portrait.

Here’s the one I did. Notice how the light I used in this shot creates the mood for the photographs. This lighting gives me a place to start, gives me a starting place where I can write.

Think metaphorically or symbolically.

I’m using the tunnel in the image below as a metaphor for emotional well being.
