Photomontage – A montage is a collection of objects that form a unified whole. A photomontage uses photographs or magazine
imagery, which are put together to form the illusion of a cohesive single image. A photomontage can look normal or surreal.
When making your photomontage, have an open mind. If using magazines, you may have to work with what you find. It is usually
a good idea to let the pictures suggest the composition rather than looking for pictures that satisfy a preconceived idea.
Written paper
You’ll also need to complete ONE written paper for your THREE photomontages, which should include the following:
a. How you went about your process from beginning to end.
b. Describe several prominent visual elements and principles of design, which you incorporated into each photomontage.
What makes your compositions effective? (See study guide 1, parts 2 & 3)
c. How would you assess your technical skills and what would you have done differently?
d. Were each your three photomontages successful? Why or why not?
For the written paper – Font size should not be larger than Times New Roman 12, if you are using a different font style.
Normal margins – 1” top, bottom & sides. Don’t aim to make larger margins and less text. Better to have smaller margins and
more text. One written paper for all three photomontages should be approximately 500 -750+ words.
Selecting interesting imagery for each type of photomontage.
 Creating effective compositions which reach its given parameters.
 Choosing effective values and colors which work well together.
 Technical skills and craftsmanship.
 Quality and thoroughness of your written analysis.
 Following directions.
