Color Schemes and Composition
Due Date: Thursday, 12/6
In order to further your understanding of color schemes and composition please complete the following:
1. Make either a 1.5” square or a 1” x 1.5”rectangular viewfinder (I will show you how). Choose either a square or rectangle for the activity.
2. Using your viewfinder, as you might use a camera, look for an interesting shot. Look through magazines and find interesting compositions by sliding the “frame” over the page.
3. When you find one you like, lightly trace the frame, and cut it out.
4. Arrange them on your sketchbook page, categorizing them by color scheme.
5. Using at least 3 columns and 5 rows, glue (using a glue stick and gluing all the way to the edges) the squares/rectangles down to your page.
6. There should be equal amounts of white space between and around each composition.
7. Pay close attention to the cutting and the gluing. Craftsmanship Counts!!!
