Culture Clash

Purpose:
  • To create a Clash of Cultures by creating your own Photo montage, combining images from Beijing, China and Yarmouth, Maine, USA;

  • To further develop your Photoshop knowledge and skills;
  • To create a “surreal” landscape by montaging a variety of photographs;
  • To know, use, and understand the Four Collage Techniques to in your Photo Montage: Juxtaposition/fragmentation, Point of View, Scale Change, Overlapping

Throughout this project I have learned how to use photoshop and how to edit/crop some photos. But while making it, there were some challenges. It took a little bit of time to get used to all of the tools. For me, it was also hard to find the right photos that would fit in. I didn't really know where to put a lot of them so it might look kinda scattered. How I dealt with these difficulties was simple. You just need to find any photo that seems realistic, but at the same time it doesn't seem real. Also, when using the tools you pretty much just figure it out on your own when exploring.
