Tri 2 Week 1: Time Travel Project

Forrest Gump and JFK

Forrest Gump and LBJ

This week, we will be promoting Studio 143 creating posters that show our students (you) in famous photographs from the past. 

Tasks:
1. Find an old photograph from a famous event. Use the internet, my US History book, or one of my historical books from the back of the room to find the photo. (if we need to scan a pic in we can).

2. Place yourself in this photo by using Photoshop filters or tools to make you look as if you belong. This means, you must match the graininess of the photo, you must be dressed in time period clothing, and you must be aligned appropriately so as not to stick out like a sore thumb.

Requirements:
1. 8 x 10 or 10 x 8, 300 ppi
2. Use a black border (Like an inspirational poster -- thicker on the bottom than top and sides)
3. Text must read: "Studio 143 - (add a catchy phrase here)" and underneath should list in smaller font the event name, date, and place.
4. Post on your blog - We will print the top 5 from each class (in full color if necessary).
