What is Collage?

Collage is an art form in which the artist creates or takes a number
of items and places them together within the boundaries of paper,
frame or screen. The goal is to craft a message or feeling by the very
patterns, content and often unexpected interaction.

Manipulate, Cut and Crop a number of different found images sourced from the internet to create your own collage. It can be either a film poster, an art ‘for art’s sake’ collage, or an advertising campaign. Think of a name for a film (‘Robot Monsters‘), a theme for a collage (day dreaming), or a commodity (Orange Juice) for an advertising campaign.  Create your own poster using a collage of  found imagery. Look up examples to give you inspiration. Copy and paste all inspiration into a word document to gather background information for your project.
