The purpose of this assignment is to understand a proper color management workflow while experimenting and utilizing advanced layer mask techniques. You are to photograph the same scene throughout the day (or multiple days!?) and combine at least 6 files together in a seamless composition. This assignment is inspired by the work of Stephen Wilkes (among others), so I suggest familiarizing yourself with this technique before starting. I would also advise you to use a tripod and choose a location that is not only interesting, but a location that you have the ability to easily go back to on multiple occasions.
Details regarding the assignment:
- Always Shoot Raw!
- Composite in Photoshop using the techniques discussed in class
- Output a Digital C-Print or Inkjet Print on Photo Quality Paper (surface of your choice)
- Utilize a proper color management workflow with correctly assigned profiles
Be Creative and have fun!
