Week 3 Practical : Compositing Collage

Lectures

This week lecture was online due to the Raya holidays. During this weeks lecture, Mr Fauzi taught us how to use Photoshop to select and crop out images from images. To select an image that we wish to crop out, we could either use the pen tool (for shapes with multiple colour) and the magic pen tool ( used to highlight flat colours only). After that we could just copy and past them onto our canvas. 

Instructions

Make three collages with different compositions but with almost similar elements with the images provided. 

1. Download all of the images here to your computer:

Work

(I made these collages with filters on top but I dont think we are suppose to yet so I took it off first)

Figure 1.1 Aquarium 

This is based on the one chapter of chainsaw man where the 2 main characters get stuck in an aquarium and eat the fishes there(FUNN).

Figure 1.2 Big Fish

This was actually the first composition I made. It has no particular meaning and is more like a test run. Well I would not say it has no meaning. I wanted to show people walking towards some kind of entrance with an ancient deity (the fish ) looking at them. 

Figure 1.3 DUN DUN!

This collage was inspired by Jaws.
