For this assignment we were supposed to make three different projects based off of a movie we watched in class called The Power of One. For the first project, we were supposed to make a movie poster for the movie. A poster you'd see to advertise the movie outside of theaters. This was really fun to do because I wanted to incorporate all of the really important characters so I put all of them in the background of the poster and made the main character, Peekay, somewhat transparent.
For this part of the project, we were supposed to pick a word from the movie that would portray an importance. I chose the word POWER because it is in the title but it is obviously a powerful word and is just that in the movie. This project was fun also because you got to choose basically anything to do and I filled in the letters with a safari background and made that layer on top of a boxing gloves picture. I think it turned out to be really cool.
For this portion of the assignment we were to make a series of six projects that had to do with racism and or heritage/culture. So I did mine based on african culture. But instead of posting six different projects I put all six into one. I manipulated each individual picture by either putting a filter on it or desaturating a portion of the image or layering two different pictures together etc. I really liked this project and what I did with it because its all different parts of the culture almost coming together in a way. This was really fun to do and I like that I was able to be creative with the out coming product.
