Contrast lesson and plans for next class

Scale is Relative A graphic element can appear larger or smaller depending on the size, placement, and color of the elements around it. When elements are all the same size, the design feels flat. Contrast in size can create a sense of tension as well as a feeling of depth and movement. Small shapes tend to recede; large ones move forward.

go to this site contrast lesson and create at least two different contrasting word combinations. You can use Illustrator to create words. If you don't have Futura Bold Font, use Helvetica Bold.

For next class you will need to bring n objects that can be arranged in a creative way on a sheet of film paper to expose in the darkroom. THese are called rayographs. Click here to find out about them.

Remember to have objects with you for next class. If you don't I will give you what I have to experiment with.
Enjoy the day
