Assignment #4: The Invisibles

Critique: April 1


3 Invisible Person Images
  • Shoot photographs following directions given in class.
  • Utilizing the skillsets, tools, and filters that you will learn in class, build 3 images in which you create a realistic depiction of an invisible person wearing visible clothing.
  • Images should be believable.  
    • Cuts should be clean, with no slivers of skin showing.
    • Any clothing or props you have had to reconstruct should be seamlessly integrated.
    • Areas around deleted body parts should be feathered and blended with the background.
    • Make sure to fill in any areas where the viewer should be able to see inside the clothing.
  • You can have more than one model in an image if you like.
  • Having props for your invisible person to interact with (objects the person is carrying, something in the environment the person is using, hats, glasses, jewelry, etc.) will make for a more visually interesting image.
Posting your work and commenting on the work of others:
  • The finished images (in .jpg format) should be uploaded to your blog BEFORE 9:00 PM THURSDAY, MARCH 31. 
  • Write some comments in your post about the assignment and your thoughts on each image you made.
  • Then, AT 9:00 PM THURSDAY NIGHT, log into Blogger, go to each of your peers' blogs, check out their images, and leave a comment about their work.  
    • What have they done well?
    • What might they have done differently?
    • Are the images believable, or can you see the process?
    • Did the student create an interesting narrative?  
    • If you have obligations that interfere with this schedule, let me know IN ADVANCE so that we can make alternative plans.
