Collage

Project Rubric
You will be creating a collage using multiple images and text to convey a message of some kind to
your audience. You will need to choose a theme and brainstorm the message you want to project.
Use the Internet (Google Images) to find images to work with. Make sure you are only choosing
Large High Quality images to work with. But, keep in mind; ALL images need to be modified in
multiple ways. Use the skills and techniques we worked with in the classwork assignments during
class. It is up to you what canvas size you will need. Remember to not only edit your photographs
but to create a visually pleasing layout and design. When you have completed your collage, you
iwill need to write a 2 paragaph paper reflecting on what you have create, what techniques you
used, etc.see below.
