Proportion Distortion Assignment
Over the next two classes, we will use the Pixlr app to create TWO artworks using the SAME person. One artwork will depict the person as larger than life. The other artwork will depict the person as smaller than life. Here is an example of what I’m looking for. Notice how I used the same picture of JuiceWrld for both collages, but used drastically different scales in each collage:
Today we will:
- Use the Pixlr app to create TWO artworks using the SAME person
- one artwork will depict the person as larger than life
- the other artwork will depict the person as smaller than life
- each artwork should be created from a minimum of 3 different images (person, background, and bonus image)
- Submit a Doc to Google Classroom with today’s progress. Include:
- the original images you started with
- the final collages OR a screen shot or your progress
- a few sentences describing what was easy and what was difficult.
