PICTURE COLOURIZATION INK & PC
INTRODUCTION:
The object of this exercise is not to colour the whole image, but to surprise, shock or emphasize.
Check out some of the samples for ideas.
PART 1: INK – 4 images
Use some Black and White prints you made in the Darkroom (or print new ones) and colourize them.
You can use Felt markers or watercolour pencils (ask for the set).
DON’T colour the whole image – you should just do a small part for effect.
PART 2: PC – 2 images
1. Scan in some Black and White images and save them.
2. In Photoshop, load the image and create a new layer to colour on.
3. Masks a part of the image, then use ‘Edit/Fill’ ‘use: Colour…’ to fill with solid colour.
4. Use layer transparency to get a realistic effect.
DON’T colour the whole image – you should just do a small part for effect.
5. Submit your 2 best images placed on ONE folder
KEY CRITERIA:
Creative use of colour, neat application, surprise effect
PHOTO TWO:
Take one of your images and colour ALL parts (Either on PC or on a photo print – NOT on paper)
• Use a variety of brushes, textures and colour blends
• The final object should look quite abstract, but still maintain the image
