Section 3 – First DS 106 Assignment

For my first assignment for this section I decided to do Time Lapse Composite which is in the Visual Assignments section. The point of this assignment is to make a photo of a place and a thing that demonstrates motion and time. The example given for this assignment looked like this…

This photo shows a picture of airplanes departing in the runway. When looking at the picture i thought of many ideas but soccer came to mind the most so i decided to do soccer.

The shooter is Steven Gerrard, a midfielder for Liverpool. It shows him shooting and I edited to make it so that the ball going in all directions.

Directions – I first found a picture of Gerrard shooting the ball from a distance and then also found a picture of a ball. I opened up adobe Photoshop and edited the balls size so that the ball fits the picture. Pressing ctrl+t allows the program to edit and then repeating the process of copy pasting and moving the picture to appropriate places.

Composite Image Assignment

I think this airport composite image is stunning. It is a work by Korean artist Ryu HoYeol entitled “Flughafen.”

I think this can be a great assignment for digital media students: Make a composite image that demonstrates motion and the passage of time with all of the people, creatures or vehicles passing through a single area by cutting and pasting multiple images into a main photograph using photo editing software.
