CANVAS PHOTOG..





I decided to use one of my images for this project. The campus image is just outside the Art and Music building. I liked the open space because I wanted to make my image appear like a banner attached at the top and bottom of the open space, while giving it the effect of wind blowing against it. The idea came to me from a ad I saw for Nike and the work of John Baldesarri. The reason I chose this image is because the art building not only has art and music but Photography as well. It would be a good addition to the empty space in which students could display a really large piece of work in this form.

  3. I like the idea of using a banner. It reminds me of some of the signs you see on the light posts around the school.

  4. What a great idea. Maybe the school could have a photo contest each semester. Post the photo entries somewhere and let each student vote once for their favorite. The contest would give campus photographers a chance to show off their work even if they didn't win. The winning photo would be displayed as a banner throughout the next semester. - Ginni Kitchen

  8. Nice work Jimmy. The campus could definitely use this type of work and like the many comments above will help promote the photography courses. Watch out Fashion Institute of NYC would like this.
