B. Based on the photo collection above, make a minimum of three A3 (photoshop or lowtech) collages and try to visualize sound. Shapes, colors, ideas and meanings are being combined in an intuitive/improvised way. The collages could reveal ideas that would otherwise remain hidden.
C. To each collage write a short conclusion, or statement. To what unexpected results did you come? The collages will be used as the starting point for further research and to develop your visual essay.
PART TWO.
Start visual essay (immediately after kickoff)
- the visual essay presents your ideas on sound and design and argues your statement about this clear and convincing. Your essay shows how you come to your concept, why you make certain choices, and how this concept is translated in to the visual proposal.
Be aware of this tight schedule, you can't afford to miss and or skip class!
