Illustrated Photo

Part A

You will need to take a good landscape (like the photo size below, not above) photo of a person (either a random person on the street, friend, or family member) outside and make sure the photo has good lighting on the subject. Choose a subject that is wearing bright colors with a pose of doing a task while not looking at the camera. Use focal point rule of thirds.

Your background should also have bright contrasting colors. It should be creative and having a purpose in doing something, not just a normal photo looking at the camera. Take three different locations/purpose in doing something and Mr. Heil will approve your best one that you will later edit in class. The background objects/colors are also very important as you can see in the example above.

Email your three photos to WordPress and the link to the spreadsheet.

Part B

Follow the directions in class (not at home) to create a your photo illustration. Then post to the MF Picasa album and post that link and the file to your WordPress.

Finished!

This assignment is a bonus opportunity. It can be challenging and take some time but the bonus points from it can really help your grade. The better it looks, the more points you get. This is optional so if you do not want to do it then just don't do it or post anything to the spreadsheet.
