HOCKNEY JOINER COLLAGES

PHOTOGRAPHIC JOINERS

YOU WILL NEED THESE READY FOR 
 FOR GEORGINA'S  LESSON WEDNESDAY 18TH SEPTEMBER  

I hope you have remembered to bring cameraphones/download/charging cables/sketchbooks Pritt stick (or money for this £1) in with you,   



You may need to top up on printing credit ( new students all start with £5 credit on your card you can bring money to put some on your student card and take it to the student HUB, soon it will be done by Wisepay).


A few tips for when you do your photo joiners:
  • It helps to take your photos all from approximately the same position. Move the camera to capture different sections, rather than wandering around - otherwise you may end up with a set of very disjointed images.
  • Whilst you are going for a fragmented look if you vary the zoom or viewpoint too much the whole thing quickly becomes incoherent.
  • You will be surprised at how many photos you need to make an effective joiner, as there is inevitably some that aren't useful - I'd suggest a minimum of 30 shots.
  • I found when working at A3 scale (for final joiner collages) that selecting the "Wallet Prints" option from the printer wizard was the most effective - this gives you 9 images on an A4 printed page. 
  • Produce at least 2 of your own joiners in response to David Hockney's work. 

After you have taken your photographs, this is the procedure to print.
