Unit 1
TASK 1:
Working in small groups, set your camera to black and white
mode (mono). Explore the school grounds and photograph
objects that mimic the look of a letter. Take a checklist with
you to ensure that you do not miss out any letter. Attempt to
take a range of 2-3 images of each letter.
TASK 2:
Edit and crop your individual images. Open your images in
Photoshop and crop it to the desired size/orientation. Decide
if you want to use square or rectangular images. You can
enhance the images by selecting image - adjustments -
curves. This is a very useful tool when working with
monochrome images.
TASK 3:
Create an A3 collage using Photoshop. Your teacher will
demonstrate how to use Photoshop to organise and edit your
alphabet. Save your work as a jpeg upon completion.

Example:
Paste your A3 poster here

Reflect on the project and discuss the following
topics:
a) What did you enjoy about the project and
why?
I enjoyed taking the photos and being creative
with the letters that I could find in all the
landscape.
b) List one feature of this project that you found
difficult?
I found it difficult finding particular letters, such
as 'r'.
c) What do you think we could do to improve
this project.
I think if we had more time to take pictures we
would find more creative shapes and therefore
produce a more interesting work.
