    Default September Assignments

    Post your suggestions for September Assignments in this thread.

    Remember we are doing 2 per month so add a couple of suggestions if desired.


    My suggestions are:

    #1 Inventive/creative use of Photoshop(or equiv) on an image. Outside the box image construction. Severe image manipulation.

    #2 A portraiture of any kind

    idea... I suggest for these monthly assignments that stock images should not be allowed... for example images posted for September Assigments must be taken between Sept 1 - 30th...

    I like Travis's number one suggestion, naturally.

    No, not worth two cents.. You may have all the time in the world, but not everyone can shoot the type of shot one week and submit it within a few days to stay in the two week time period. We have other responsibilities.

    meh.... IMO these are classroom style assignments.. you can't just use your homework from last years class..

    participation is optional.... if you are busy there is no obligation for submission....

    what do others think??

    heck no.... this is a learning environment..... feel free to post and make topic suggestions...

    as you can see from this thread... I've pitched an idea that submissions be current... Tegans not a fan of it.... no one else has chimed in yet....

    hmmm - tricky... i think the submissons should be as recent as possible, (the idea is to get out and experiment/learn now) but if someone has a super great shot that was taken earlier, they should be allowed to submit it.

    i also like the severe image manipulation idea.

    a couple other sept assignment ideas - back-to-school, changing seasons, (up north where i live, the leaves are already dropping to the ground!), and maybe everyone should submit their images in sepia tone... hahaha...
