2 Day Project -
Students will explore taking multiple steps to complete a final product. First the students will be given a photo (of the Millenium Park Bean in Chicago) that will require some adjustment repairs to be made using the healing brushes, clone stamp, and crop tools. Next students will use layer modes to blend the Chicago flag over the image. Finally students will include text with a layer style to create a city themed postcard.
After they have done a postcard of Chicago, I want them them to do one for anywhere in Alberta (Calgary, Banff, Edmonton etc. - they can even do a humorous poster such as the one linked below).
If you finish in one class - you have rushed the project. A professional Graphic Designer would take a couple of hours at least - play around and be a perfectionist. Use filters and explore features of Photoshop. For example try posterize. Check out the humorous example and try to replicate the style

If you have any questions, please email. I will endeavour to get back to you within three calendar days.
The fastest way to get a password to access student content is by asking for one in person. If you are not a student you should be able to acquire one from your child/ward.
