OBJECTIVE: STUDENTS DEVELOP THEIR CREATIVE EYE WHILE LOOKING FOR THE LETTERS OF THEIR NAME IN EVERYDAY OBJECTS.
ASSIGNMENT:Try to spell out your name using photographs of everyday objects. Try to find objects that look like each letter in your name, don't take photographs of actual letters (like ones found on signs, keyboards, textbooks, etc.). This trains your "creative eye" to look at the world around you in a different, more creative way. Take several photos for each letter, that way you'll have more options and can choose the best, clearest photograph to use in your final design.TIPS:Need help finding letters?
- look for shadows on the ground
- notice cracks in the sidewalk
- look in the tree branches
- arrange several objects together (sticks, paintbrushes, etc.) to form a letter
- if a certain object doesn't at first look like it could resemble a letter, look at it from a different point of view (from the side, upside down, from above, etc.) and you might see something completely new!
