“Take That” / a montage by Randall Hoyt

Using your own photographs in PhotoShop make two montages telling a story using multiple figures. There will one multiple-figure montage of you and another montage of someone else. Create an impossible image of:

you participating with five copies of yourself in a scene
someone else participating with five copies of themselves in a scene

Find a Friend

You might need help. Most phones have a timer feature so you can shoot the scene yourself as I have. Getting help is a better idea. If your camera is not the best, use someone elses!

All photographs must be yours. Find environments with good light and depth to contain five versions of a person. Shoot a few and choose the best one.

Take an interesting photograph in the Keene area. Photoshop five or more images yourself (or a friend) into the photograph to create a believable scene where some of the figures are interacting. These interactions may be “normal” or bizarre or a combination of both. The figures should can be photographed in the same scene or a different scene with comparable light. The resulting montages should be dynamically framed with a sense of visual interest with combined or individual activities.
