Create a holiday meme for your favorite celebrity!
Today we are going to use the laptops to do some art using computer technology. We will be looking at the photographs of Annie Leibovitz and colorizing them with our own color schemes. Follow the step-by-step instructions in the word document below in order to colorize your own Annie Leibovitz photograph. Make sure you re-save the work using your name so that you get credit for the assignment today. Please note, Pixlr doesn't work with google chrome.
Today, we will be altering a photo of yourself using Pixlr for an upcoming self portrait we will start for our next project. Follow the directions below to alter your photo. Please print out a 5x7 copy of your photo when you have finished. (we will use this for our next project.)
4. Now, use the crop tool to crop in tight onto your face. 5. You may need to zoom in to see your image better. Select view, then zoom in. 6. Next, click on Adjustment, then hit Hue Saturation in the drop down menu. Bring the Saturation down as far as it will go so the photograph is completely black and white. 7. Next click on adjustment, then Posterize in the drop down menu. 8. Change the levels to 4 and click OK. 9. If the levels look funny (too much grey, not enough white, etc), you may want to UNDO posterize and change the brightness and contrast a bit. Usually making it a little brighter and upping the contrast works to fix it and get the look you want. (Sometimes I have to play with the levels a few times before I get it the way I want it.) Once you have done this, go back to step 7 and 8 to posterize. 10. When you are finished and you have your image posterized with 4 levels and it looks the way you like it, you need to save it to your student number on the computer.
11. Then pull up the image from your number and print out your photograph as a 5x7 image.
1. Choose two of the famous artworks below (right click and choose "Save As" and save to your drive)
2. Make each one into a meme by adding your own text. 3. Add text by using Pixlr Express 4. Complete the Art Reflection Sheet for ONE of your chosen artworks (or fill out the reflection below the gallery). |
