Photoshop Projects Assignment Descriptions

Monochrome Project:
Using a grayscale image, colorize it using your knowledge of layers, opacity, and the basic photoshop
tools.

Split/Reality 
Based on the examples shown in class, create your own version of the “Split Reality.” The artist we
looked at in class is Instagram handle Ugurgallen, for some inspiration. Please use high quality images
and spend the time to blend them appropriately.

Mini Technique Lesson:

Find a technique (using your own experience or YouTube or another source).  You will demonstrate that
technique to the class and walk everyone through it. Ideally, this should take right around 5 minutes to
demonstrate the new technique.
DUE: March 10th, In Class. 

Digital Forgery 
You're an art thief! Create a detailed forgery of another digital artist's work: 
 Choose a digital artist and get them approved, then select three images of their style and create
your forgery in your chosen artist’s style. I recommend DeviantArt is a good place to source
digital artists and their work.  
 You will submit your digital forgery in both photoshop file form AND as an exported graphics
format (.jpeg or .png). 
 You will also submit the three images from your chosen artist that you used as inspiration.  
 Pay particular attention to sizing, signature, and some of the other things. These are the details
that make for a successful forgery! 
DUE: March 12th  by 11:59 PM

Digital Poster 
You’ve been assigned to the marketing team at the theater of your choice. For an upcoming show or
event, you are to create a poster that will be plastered around town to advertise the show.

For the poster, the qualifications are: 

 The poster can be either 11x17 or 18x24 size. 
 Poster is single sided. 
Please include the following information: 
 Producing Company
 Producing Venue (Name of place, and address) 
 Ticket Prices and where to purchase
 Performance Dates & Times of the production 
 Any necessary contact info
 Any other relevant information! 

DUE: March 15th by 11:59 PM. 

Analog Forgery
You're an art thief! Create a detailed forgery of another artist's work. Just like the digital project, with one
twist: The original artist must be an analog artist! So- an artist working in a traditional medium- acrylic,
marker, watercolor, oil, gouache, pen and ink, colored pencil, crayon, pastel, you get the picture. 
 Choose a digital artist and get them approved, then select three images of their style and create
your forgery in your chosen artist’s style.
 You will submit your analog forgery in both photoshop file form AND as an exported graphics
format (.jpeg or .png). 
 You will also submit the three images from your chosen artist that you used as inspiration.  
 Pay particular attention to sizing, signature, and some of the other things. These are the details
that make for a successful forgery!
