The Composited Image

In this project you are going to explore the composited image. This composite will be a series of photos taken in one place overlapped to help reinforce the ideas of memory and evoke a feeling from your viewer. Take us on a journey—of a space, or a memory, a conversation, or a roadtrip—and take several images in a short span of time. By overlapping these photos in post-production we are literally creating an image that focuses on the idea of time, capturing an emotion or a representation of a moment in time. Using color and movement to inform the image and explore the idea of the passing of time.  Will your image be happy or melancholic? Is it a representation of your favorite childhood memory, or a conversation with your best friend? What about a walk through the woods? How can you use this technique to give us a story in one single image? 
Assignment:

Create 3 composite journey images. You can use object, take a walk outside, photograph several portraits in a row, or explore even more conceptual ideas about the passing of time. Remember to take several images that overlap with one another, try 10 images or 50 images...how might more images be interesting? 

Steps:
  • Start by checking out Al Wildey's work
  • Think of ideas—how can you best represent a journey or the passing of time?
  • You are creating 3 images, this will be 3 separate shoots to create the overlapped imagery 
  • Post-production is where these will really come together, try to think about a lot of change in your images and also about small movements if you want the image to hold together more clearly

Objective: To use separate images (taken over a short period of time) to create the feeling of time and memory.
