Collage

This project used the font poems we had created and the first project and had us bring images and animation into them to add even more meaning to our quote. I brought in different puzzle pieces because a puzzle has to be put together. I also used an image of a heart falling apart to convey the word apart. The background was a simple image of a blue sky in a desert because I wanted it to seem as if the words were falling. Each image we had was brought into a separate layer in the photoshop document. Sometimes we would have to play with the opacity such as multiplying or darkening it to make it look better and worked with the words. It took awhile to arrange the images so that they all worked together and conveyed the message of the quote.

The second part of the project was to add animation to the collage. We had to add a slide and adjust the image or word each slide to make it look as if they were moving and animated. I found this part of the project the most difficult because it was hard to figure out the best way to bring in each word along with the images. It took a lot of time and mistakes to finally figure out how you wanted to arrange all of the layers. Making a layer for each image and word was key in this project. If you had not done this, you would not be able to move the images and words by themselves but as a whole. also you would not be able to change the filters and opacity of each image and word separately.
