Is that my face?

My favorite assignment so far.. Picasso Yourself!  For this assignment I used my super silly boyfriend and the ever-so-amazing Macbook Photobooth.

With this assignment came a lot of laughter! There are sooo many effects that you can make using photobooth (which comes as an app for any Mac computer owner).

I used “Strech” effect to make my face, and my boyfriends face all distorted.  We laugh for a good 5 minutes after every picture we took.  I felt that this effect was as close as I could get to Picasso’s Cubism.  Cubism basically involved distortion of images, in particular faces and I present that in my photograph.

The beauty about photobooth and my MacBook is that the camera on my laptop is of a pretty good quality and photobooth takes amazing pictures so not much editing had to be done on the photo.  I did have to crop the picture and I just did an auto enhancer and ta-da!  It came out to look super silly all on its own.  Gotta love art!
