Double Exposure

In this project we are going to create digital compositions with two images as double exposure. Similar to the idea of a true double exposure or sandwiched negative, we will be combining two or more images to make an entirely new photograph. Artists have explored this idea for years in traditional film photography, but digital allows us even more control over the final outcome and how much of one image or the other we can see. 

Assignment:
You must create 3 digital composites that focus on double exposure and/or combined imagery. Think about how to make someone have a double take on the image they are viewing. Ever wanted to make your friend have Medusa hair...here's your chance!  The idea of double exposure can have a lot of meaning or be very surreal—you can be more focused on making two images strange, haunting, or beautiful. You must use one portrait and you must make just one section of the image a double exposure; hair instead of the face, or the arms and not the rest of the body, etc.  

Steps:

• Choose 2 images that you think might work together (you can always change them later on)
• Check out PS tutorials on double exposure or this step-by-step system of how to make a double exposure
• Try this video tutorial for visual as well
• These can be portraits, landscapes, still lives, or anything you want
