ASSIGNMENT #10 Illustration

(Due Monday December 12th)

Part I:

Make an illustration for the following topic:

The New Great Depression

In 2011, America and much of the world is going through a tough and turbulent period. Many are calling an economic depression. A depression is a sustained, long-term downturn in economic activity in one or more economies that often include long-term unemployment for many, and tears at people’s lives and at the fabric of society. Create a photo illustration on this subject.

Do all necessary research and create or select images to make an illustrative image.

Remember, an illustration is a Non-Documentary photograph, and can be completely set up, manipulated, or orchestrated.

The image’s message must be communicated clearly, with a clear preconceived visual solution.

This is an opportunity to take an idea and transform it into a representative visual, with manipulated guidance.

BE CREATIVE AND CONCEPTUAL. Please review photo illustrations in the PPP.

Photo can be montage, multiple images, computer or darkroom altered images.

Image alteration is allowed, BUT not required. OK to use images taken found on the internet, BUT BE SURE TO GIVE CREDIT in caption.

Life was wildly successful for generations before its prestige was diminished by economics and changing tastes. Since 1972, Life has twice ceased publication and resumed in a different form, before ceasing once again with the issue dated April 20, 2007.

Eddie Adams won the Pulitzer Prize for for his picture of a Viet Cong lieutenant being executed at close range on a Saigon street by a South Vietnamese general.

How about this Diane Arbus image?
