Ch 9: Layering and Collage

Tonight you are going to learn about layering and collage. Collage is a way to combine multiple images into a single document. Collage is not a new technique, but we will be using the newest technology to create ours!

Please read Chapter 9: Layering and Collage in your textbook and do the exercises it shows. These exercises will teach you how to combine images using Adobe Photoshop and use blending modes to make them blend together.

Once you complete the book's exercises, I want you to go online and find three separate images: one animal, one architectural and one object. Then, I want you to combine these three objects into one document, or collage, using the techniques learned in chapter 9. Put some thought into this and make it look good. Don't just throw together the first three images you think of!

HOMEWORK:

• Complete all the exercises in Chapter 9: Layering and Collage

• Save your exercise files in a FOLDER named: lastname_layering&collage

• Find three images online. One of an animal, one of a piece of architecture and one of an object.

• Use those three images to create your own collage using techniques from Chapter 9.

• Save your PHOTOSHOP DOCUMENT (filename will end in .psd) as: lastname_collage.psd

All of these assignments are due at the beginning of class on Monday!
