COVID Visual Journal (TWO Images- Pandemic and Coping)

Pandemic Images



Coping Images

 


Student work from Alison Beste

For the COVID Project Journal (TWO Images) you will need to:

Apply your knowledge of flat lay photography (Click here for a tutorial by Christina Greve)

Create TWO personal COVID images- Pandemic and Coping with 5 to 9 different objects in each (specific details below) and edit in Lightroom App or any other editing program.

Title each image and write a 5 sentence artist statement for each. The artist statement explains the objects you have choose for comfort and coping.

Post the TWO images, their titles and artist statements to your Schoology.

IMAGE ONE- Pandemic.
The first image should include objects that symbolize items that are helping you get through the pandemic. (Phone, computer, etc.)
Title the image Pandemic.

IMAGE TWO- Coping.
The second image should include objects that symbolize items that are helping you stay sane, healthy, and happy. (Painting, drawing, yoga mat, game controller)
Title the image Coping.

* If you are struggling with coming up with TWO DIFFERENT images you may do one with the same objects but you will need 2 different photos of this flat lay re-arranged.

For this one I will allow tastefully used brands but sparsely (no more than 2 brands). See examples above.

For CREDIT I am looking for the following:
Images use natural light or appropriate lighting
Images are well edited in PS or LR
Images use a neutral background (NO sidewalks, driveways  or towels) like a nice rug or wood floor.
The images are taken from above.
