Dr. Mr. president -pink Wilkenson Clear Lyrical Triptych Reflection M-3 11/4/09
This assignment was called the Lyrical triptych; which is three five by seven panels. The rules of this project where to pick a song that we like or means something to us. We also had to find images we though could describe a part of the song lyrics we liked. After that we had to find a way to incorporate the lyrics and the images on the three panels. Not only that but also had to apply the photo shop skills learned such as filters, and lowering the opacity of some images and making some things stand out or fade out.
My triptych was three different panels, with the same concept in a weird kind of way. The song I chose was dear Mr. President by the artist known as pink. On one of my panels shows money with a babe in it talking about minimum wage with a babe on the way. The second one is about soldiers and walking by a house that was just bombed and a the third was a homeless and near a city. I used a couple of opacity tricks, erasing tools magnetic lasso and a filter as well as blending tools.
The way I created images to reflect my lyrics was to pick the things I thought where closes to what I was trying to say but not exactly the example of the lyric. The way I captured the mood on my first one was by putting the babe on in the dollar bill. This symbolized the part of my lyrics where it say’s minimum wage with a babe on the way. And the lyrics pop out with a drop shadow to show the point of the lyrics.
My experience was very helpful because I already work on it at home but I learned a bunch of new skills to use. I actually love it because it different and I can actually bring my ideas to life realistically. I think it’s a successful in the creation because I feel that I really got my message of the lyrics through to my audience. If I was to do this again I’d probably do nothing different I like the ideas and concepts I picked.
