  15. Your assignment – part 1 • You will select an artist and type up a visual analysis about one of their pieces of artwork. • Visual analysis: • Describe • Analyze • Interpret • Judge

  16. Your assignment – part 2 • 1. Decide whether you will create a Dream or Nightmare image. • 2. Photograph at least 10 different objects/scenarios that you associate with a dream or nightmare. • 3. Create your own 7-10 layer photomontage inspired by the artist's theme, images, composition, techniques, and title. You may also use images that you shot for other projects. • 4. Be sure to use a range of Adjustments: color, curves, levels; Filters: solarize, find edges, watercolor, etc.; Transformations: scale, perspective, distort, etc.; Opacity, and Blending Modes, including “Blend If…”

  17. Your assignment – part 3 • 1. Now use the same/similar images to create the opposite of what you did first: Make your Dream a Nightmare or vice versa. • 2. You may shuffle your layers, change opacity, blending modes, etc. to create the opposite effect. • 3. In a word document title each photomontage and give a brief interpretation of what the meaning was for your dream/nightmare image. (Think in terms of the visual analysis part – Interpretation) There should be a title and interpretation for each image. • 4. Print out the word document and cut up the two interpretations separately. • 5. Mount both photomontages with their interpretations onto black paper.
