For this project we are to show time in some way using photos and making them into a collage with numerous photos. I instantly got a ton of ideas and once I started getting really ambitious there came even more.
Some of my ideas are the Chi O fountain and Jayhawk Boulevard, downtown Lawrence, Clinton Lake, hookah, and SKC game (going to one over spring break).
And then I started thinking outside the box. I was inspired by the Hallmark Lecturer we had last Thursday by Matt Shlian. He is a paper engineer so he folds paper. I saw one of his first pieces and was instantly inspired. What if I cut slits in a printed photo and folded them to create a 3D effect? From there I started thinking about doing buildings and having 3D effects on the edges on a few areas. A friend in my class then suggested what if I took pictures of someone folding a piece of paper and making something our of paper and the image is then slit and folded to mimic that work. IT WOULD BE SO COOL!
Then I started thinking about shooting a hallway with doors and maybe a couple of the doors are 3D and they have a little pocket that then holds a picture of the inside of that room.
My mind is going bonkers over this project and I love it.
For homework we were to take photos of a couple of our ideas and put together a mock up of a collage with a few photos. Here is what I came up with. You'll notice I have two ideas that aren't listed above as initial ideas that I had. I don't have a vehicle or an easy way to get to downtown or Clinton Lake so I improvised and came up with two other ideas. One is looking out my window in my living room and capturing day and night with the different things that show up in the window. The other is just my cat Gus and his shenanigans and the different things he does throughout the day.
