The Last Post

HEY! There are NO MORE blog responses in here...

BUT

You should read the board (yellow poster)
It pertains to the final project.

You will be held accountable for that information.

READ IT.

LIVE IT.

LOVE IT.
(that is optional)

TEXT assignment #4

Ransom Name.

Spell out your name from PHOTOS.

PHOTOS not word fonts- see above.

ONE of your images must be an implied letter... That means it is not a letter- but LOOKS LIKE a letter... This can be found on the internet, but, depending on your name and ingenuity- it might just be EASIER to take the photo yourself... YOU decide...

IT SHOULD BE ALL nice and clean and similar sized like my example above- you'll need to use the CANVAS SIZE tool and maybe the clone or paint tools to edit your images- NO LITTLE edges of other letters should be in/on your letter!

This goes in your TEXT WEEK album in PhotoBucket- and DON'T forget to fill out an EVALUATION SHEET when you have completed all 4 text week projects....

Thank you buddy.

TEXT EXTra CREDit #4

Arrange items to spell out the NAME of the ITEMS you are using.

(don't do these example ones)
Arrange pencils to spell the word PENCIL.

Arrange your pocket change to spell MONEY.

or

Get creative and use PHOTOshop's Infinite Clone to spell out the word FRIEND using a ton of cloned pictures of your best buddy...

AWWWWWW......

Post this in your TEXT WEEK album- mention it on the Evaluation Sheet you do for TEXT WEEK today... This ex.cred it worth 10 hot, sweet, salty points!!!

TEXT #3- Motivational Poster

Today's TEXT assignment is creating a Motivational Poster AND a deMotivational Poster.

You see these things ALL OVER the internet... All over your dentist's office... All over the insides of your eyelids.

They can be inspirational and SINCERE- (click here)

Or sarcastic and contain cutting humor (click this)

Which do you like better?

ONE of yours needs to be MOTIVATIONAL and contain a positive message.

... the OTHER ONE can be deMOTIVATIONAL and on the funny side.

ONE of the above two needs to use ONE OF YOUR photos, the other one can
use an internet image.

THE TEXT can be taken from another poster (we call it 'appropriation' in the art world) or created NEW by YOU- if you're a clever, original person!!!

I will be showing people how to create these in PHOTOSHOP, but if you made a cube, you can use THIS SITE to make them, too!!!

MY tEX(tra credit) GIRLFRIEND
