REMINDERS for "Spaced Out"

Spaced Out Assignment Reminders:

You must incorporate at least 30 images into your photo collage construction.
You might want to check out the examples that I posted before spring break.

Check out Alex's.  She is already finished.

You may manipulate your images to best reflect the concepts described in this assignment.

You may be creative and adjust colors, etc in your photos.

To begin construction of your photo design, create a new blank page in Paint.NET that is 24" wide by 18" tall at 200 dpi (pixels/inch) resolution. NOTE: You have to change the dpi first and THEN put in the dimensions.  Also, make sure you change the dimensions in INCHES and not PIXELS!

Then, you will paste your image pieces onto this blank canvas to construct your image. Be warned! You will have to reduce the size of each piece-- they will be too large to fit all of them onto the blank page. You may want to shrink the size down before you copy and paste.  It won't take as long.

When you are happy with your collage, flatten all of your layers.  Save your work as a .jpg at the full size (ex: Space.jpg.). Then shrink the file down to 25% of the original size and save again, but make sure you change the title (ex: SpaceSMALL.jpg). Post the small version to your blog.
