EXTRA CREDIT: EXAGGERATED SCALE ADVERTISEMENT

2D Design NSCC

MATERIALS:

Bristol pad paper, xacto knife, cutting mat, glue stick, magazine/internet/found images OR Photoshop

REVIEW:

“SCALE {element of design}” and “PROPORTION {principle of design}” on 2ddesignnscc.blogspot.com

OBJECTIVE:

A photomontage using exaggerated scale (disproportion) to create a surreal or unreal image.

The image should be able to act as an advertisement for something (a product, a show, a political campaign, etc.)

No text allowed.  

Rules

- use collage with two or more found images of different sizes

To Consider

-        begin by researching advertisements and other images that use scale in interesting ways

-        at least one of your images should use exaggerated scale (size)

-        the advertisement aspect of your image may be something you come up with after creating the piece or may be something you think of beforehand.

-        The image does not need to directly relate to the product you are advertising (i.e. Cave men have nothing to do with GEICO auto insurance).

PRESENTATION:

Collage/Photoshop image of any size on Bristol pad paper (should have a border around it)

WRITTEN ASSESSMENT:

What are you intending to advertise?  How is exaggerated scale used in your image?  Is your image funny, surprising, strange?  How do you think that helps to communicate an idea more effectively?
