CREATING IMAGES
Posted in Art, Image and Editing Tools on January 26, 2011 by cre8tiveclassroomCREATING YOUR OWN IMAGES
Where possible I like to use my own images that way I don’t have to worry about copyright. Here is a few ideas I have to share for creating your own images.
DIGITAL CAMERA – ‘DC’
There are so many things you can do with your ‘DC’ here is a photo I have taken of one of my drawings. I then uploaded it onto Befunky a cool photo editing tool. Here are some examples of playing with the same image.
Original image “I See”, Oils on Plaster
“I See”, edited image using Befunky
“I See”, edited using Splashup
‘I See’, edited using GIMP program
IN THE CLASSROOM
You can take photos of anything especially the childrens work. Let them have a play with their images to give them more confidence.
One of the best things about taking the 30 Day Challenge is the exposure to so many different websites and blogs. Check out some of the fantastic Image generator links from this challenge and a few of my own favourites.
