Final Week!


We are getting down to the end, everyone...Grades have to go in next week on Thursday the 20th... So be sure to check off all of the assignments and make sure you have several good ones from each week... at a minimum, they need to be sharp (usually) and exhibit a sensitive appreciation of light (no flash and most indoor light from lights).... I have responded to each image I felt was worthy of credit in your fotothing portfolios.

Our last project is fun and gets you to play with composited images and and dreamscapes... It is hard to combine images without photoshop and so I have asked you to head over to the Wadsworth Atheneum site where they have kept up a very cool java application that lets you create your own surreal masterpieces in no time... Read my instructions carefully how to capture it and post it here and to your fotothing acct. Basically you press "print screen" on your computer keyboard (pc's)... that puts the whole screen in the computer's memory as an image then you need to open paint (start>all programs>accessories>paint. Now paste (edit>paste) the screen shot in and use the square select tool and outline your image. Next go edit>copy to and name your file and save it to a place where you can find it again... From there you can up load it to here and fotothing...

Here is an example from a previous Mod....
