FUTURISM...What is Futurism?
As inspiration, you will be the early 1900's school of thought that was engaged in the newest technologies of the time (electricity, sound, automobiles, photography etc.). Their emphasis was on art that expressed energy and a had a modern feel. Kind of like... Photoshop and other forms of CGI. Your assignment is to create an illustration (to include text) that creates a narrative or tells a story.
You must use at least 3 different images (taken by you). Use the automation tools in Photoshop, in addition to the tools we have discussed so far (transparency, filters [motion blur etc.], masks, blending tools etc.) and used in some of the units over the course of the semester to create your illustration. Your illustration should capture the feel or mood or essence of the Futurist school of thought - as well as encompass the ideas, concepts and techniques seen today in the areas of high-speed photography, advertising and contemporary animation (and film making in general).
