Typographic Portraits
Typographic Portraits- using type to create an image! Above are examples of different ways Mrs. Riehle has created, but there are many different ways to do it! Here are some more links to examples of typographic portraits.
When you are ready to begin I have started uploading video to youtube for you to use. I will be ready to help if you have any questions!
What you will do:
1. Pick a portrait to do- It has to be someone you know- it can not be an image from google images etc. It has to be a photo taken by you or someone you know.
You can bring a real photo in for me to scan or in on a flash drive or upload it to your google docs.
2. Decide how you are going to create your image. Mrs. Riehle will have tutorials on various ways to do it, but not all ways- you may have to do a little searching!
3. When we are all done you are going to print this out HUGE! We will learn how to do that.
4. Have fun!
Here are a couple more examples using color and custom brushes instead of words.
Editing Shapes
How do you edit something that isn't rasterized????
1. Create your shape- custom shapes are located under the Shape tool. You can find them under the square shape tool.
2. Inorder to erase areas of your shape you will need to rasterize it.
3. Go to Layer- Rasterize- Choose LAYER.
4. Now you can edit your layer.
Black and White Problem What you will be graded on:
1. CREATIVITY- BE DIFFERENT!!!
2. Use of negative/possitive space
3. Reconizable quality of theme chosen.
4. Neatness
5. Use of tools
You will need to upload your BEST black and white problem to your blog and link up your blog. All the others need to be put in your GOOGLE docs photoshop folder.
Questions that need to be answered on your blog-
Why you picked your theme. How you came up with your idea for your image. Why this one is your best. What would you do differently next time. Did you use shapes, brushes or both.
You will have classtime on Monday to finish up your blog and black and white problem. I will also show you the next assignment examples.
