Unit 5
Telling Stories in Photos
I listened first to photographer Jason Eskenazi’s video on the art of using photography as a method of storytelling. I never thought of the idea of changing a 3D world to a 2D world – the words “clean, simple, direct” are often not associated with art. …
She Might Kill Me For This!
Another visual assignment I did this week was turning an ordinary portrait of someone into an extraordinary portrait. Naturally, I chose my wife. I picked one of my favorite pictures of her (isn’t she just beautiful!) and made her look like a pop-art vampire. I did this by airbrushing the…

Normal To Extraordinary
For my first visual assignment I chose to do a 3 Star assignment. I chose my sisters as my person and changed her normal pictures into something extraordinary (Hopefully). I love the movie Funny Face by the fabulous Audrey Hepburn. It’s the story of how a simple…
Extra-Ordinary
Half Man, Half Scare Crow. Though I didn’t do his make up myself I really liked this photo. It was his makeup for Cornstalkers in Halloween Haunt which I think made him look pretty extraordinary. I used the app ColorSplash on my iPhone to do the black and white with…
Pop Art From the Heart
This visual assignment was about turning a normal picture into something extraordinary. When I first read this, I knew exactly what picture I could use. My roommate from last year edited this picture of us when we went to the river together last spring. She gave me a cowboy hat…
Normal to Extraordinary
We had a lot of fun with this picture. My friend loves to do her makeup, and usually takes hours getting ready so I thought I’d ask her to do this for me. We took paint and dripped it down her face. Set her up against the Eagle Landing courtyard…
Normal To Extrordinary: The dot effect
I really liked the assignment for Normal to Extraordinary. It creates normal pictures (of extraordinary people) into something different. I knew I immediately wanted to do my best friend, so I went through the pictures I have of her and came across one she sent me when she was bored…
“flash” in time
Okay——–This will definitely NOT earn me a “Grandmother of the Year” award! Anyway, my visual remix is a picture of my grandsons at Orange Beech this summer. I used pixlr for my project as a last resort. My initial plan was to “creep” this photo into the final beech scene…
Remix #1
This is a photo of my youngest daughter, Erica, from Easter 2011. I’ve always loved the expression on her face and the bright colors in the picture. I tried to add effects that made the picture more dream-like. Erica is my free-spirited child who often loses herself in imaginary play…

Visual Assignment: Normal to Extraordinary
“Take a friend and turn him/her from a normal looking person to an extraordinary looking. Put the shots side by side for comparison.” I would say that extraordinary is subjective.
