Multiply Yourself!
Creating this assignment is a lot easier than it looks!
First though, you'll need an idea. In class, we will be learning HOW to layer
your photos and create one image, but outside of class you will need to take
the time to create the photographs.
Taking the Pictures
To make clones of yourself, put your camera on a tripod and
take multiple pictures of yourself in different spots within the same scene. If
your camera has a timer (shown next), start the timer, and then move in front
of the camera so it takes a picture of you. Shoot a minimum of you 3x.
Choose a different pose for each picture. you can take
pictures and then move in front of the camera before the shutter clicks. try to
make your “characters” look like they’re interacting with each other by their
facial expressions. Click the below images to download them so you can try it
yourself!
Opening the Pictures as Layers
Open the files in Photoshop as layers, with one on top of
the other. You can open multiple pictures as layers by selecting File | Scripts
| Load Files Into Stack. You’ll see your photos as multiple layers within a
single picture, as shown next. You can use more than two pictures.
DUE DATE:
You'll need to have your photos Wednesday, in case you have to re-shoot. TAKE MORE THAN YOU NEED in case a few images do not fit.
I would like EVERYONE to post their final image to their blog followed by your
original images by FRIDAY.
HINT! The more creative your narrative, the more successful the project!
