week 5
- overlay large words on photo
- repetition of one word
raw photos
For the photo component of this project, I took some pictures of my sister sitting on a stool. I took the pictures in the morning, so the light was a little bit softer.
edited photo
To edit this photo, I used mostly Photoshop. I added the words and layered two different shades of each word to make them look 3D. I wasn't able to find the font that I wanted, so the font is a lot thicker and bolder than I was hoping for. Ideally, I would have used a font that was hollow, or more of an outline. The word I used was "solamente," which means "only" in Spanish. I used the english translation in the middle of the photo and adjusted the opacity so the photo in the back would be slightly more visible.
final
For the final printed and matted version of this photo, I used 5x7 glossy paper and a white mat board. I think that the colors of the text in the photo printed a lot more dull and dark than the actual colors. I'm not really sure how I feel about this photo. I think that it is a lot different than the photos I usually make, so I feel like I challenged myself in some way.
