New Order part 1
Make a Google image search of your chosen image. Download the first 50 image results or the first 50 different results.
Develop a visual sequence that you find interesting from your results using only 15 to 20 of the images. Make one more different sequence.
Explain your ideas for the narrative.
Possibilities
- Think about linear and nonlinear sequences;
- What happens to certain images when they are placed next to each other;
- Story telling;
- Abstraction;
- Repetition;
- Movement;
- Tension;
- Colour (if you are working with a colour image).
Present your sequences in a portrait (vertical) A5 format (which means the spread is A4). You can have one image per page or spread or a combination of the two. The images must keep their proportions.
Timetable:
Two weeks divided as follow
13 September: Working on the sequence after choosing and downloading your images. Use the resources of the school: printer, photocopier, etc
20 September: Presentation of 2 sequences in A5 format (spread is A4).
