Our first day of forced perspective was spent reviewing one and two point perspective and introducing the concept of forced perspective. Then it was time to unleash the kiddos to brainstorm, plan and get inspired. There were so many cool images to view that even though their galleries only require 6 final, edited images, the photo shoot lists were into the 20s! The next few days were spent indoors and out shooting images. There were some weird looks from passersby and fellow students as we pretended to "fall" from a wall and cracks in the sidewalk and pretended to be thrown and squished by large rocks, objects and feet...the things you do for great art :) The following day was spent choosing final images to turn in. editing and putting effects like Color Splurge into the images. Check back next week to see all images in our ART 8 Gallery

After practicing our one and two point perspective for a couple days, ART 8 students are experimenting with forced perspective. Forced Perspective is an optical illusion technique mostly used with photography. To create an optical illusion, photographers and subjects vary the distances from the camera of objects and people. ART 8 students are using our IPads from the JCF for this first digital project. Today was an outdoor shooting day and the groups of 3-4 got to play around with many ideas and props. The kids had a ton of fun and were really excited to utilize our new technology! The final group galleries of 6 images will be posted in our ART 8 Gallery next week upon completion of the project. Check out the Resources page of our website for online examples of forced perspective photos. art 8 at workBelow you will see ART 8 students at work on the IPads editing their forced perspective photos and outside doing their photo shoots.
