Take photos from different angles (side, front,view, from below, from above etc.)

Take close up & full face photos

Think about your background!

Use the crop tool in powerpoint to re-shape your photos

Try to imagine you are making a collage - use layering, they don't need to line up!

The more photos you take and arrange, the greater sense of movement you will have :)!

Hockney started to explore photo collages in the early 1980's that he called 'joiners'.
He began with grid-like compositions made up of polaroid photographs.

Play around with composition - angles & perspective

Think about your media choice

Focus on shape & line - key!

Think about how to use your concertina & enhance the drawings across the pages

This is not about creating a detail object, (like in task 2.) - Keep the object 2D.

Explore and experiment with your chosen object!

Assignment is to be completed and uplaoded before Friday's P1 lesson.
