To make this photo, you will take at least 5 images (you can take as many as you want, as long as you are careful, usually 7 or 8 is about all you can get) of the exact same background, but you will have to physically move around in each image. As you can see above this student took 5 photos and moved from left to right across the background as she went.
Students have done a variety of things through the years of doing this assignment, from spelling out words with their arms (think YMCA), to writing words on a paper and showing a different word in each photo. Also, you should think about how you can position yourself besides across the plane of the photo, think about height and depth as well.
In a blog called Merger Photo, please answer the following questions.
1. Is there something you see in the photo above that you think could be a problem when you take your photos? Look carefully.
2. Where do you think would be a great place to take this type of picture here on the Bowie campus?
3. Can you think of something creative to actually DO in the photo when you take yours?
4. Is there something you could wear that would help you when you do this photo?
Finally I want you to post 5 images on merger photos that you can find on the internet and tell me what you liked/found interesting about each one.
