Composition Types

Ben Heine (Pencil vs. Camera)

Johan Thörnqvist  (Hand Altered Photos)

Take an original photograph to alter for our color pencil project/problem.
Take photo with DRAlter concept in mind.  Submit photo via gmail, flash drive, or bring in camera.  

Remember what you've learned about composition.  Consider using format:

1. Leading Lines
2. Rule of Thirds
3. Framing the Scene
4. Cropping
5. Vantage Point
6. Non-Distracting Background
7. Symmetry
8. Repetition & Patterns
9. Shifting Horizon (out of middle of frame) Low or High
10. Consider Best Lighting & Time of Day (mood you wish to communicate)

We'll alter your image in Adobe Photoshop to make it black & white & reduce the opacity/make it more faded.  Then I'll copy them onto heavy drawing paper and we'll begin to make drawn color additions.

DRAlter!
