Create a photograph that violates size constancy. There are some examples on p. 192 of the textbook. But yours does not have to look like these –be creative.
Your photograph must be an original photograph created after January 2018. It must be made specifically for this class and not from a prior vacation.
You cannot use Photoshop or otherwise alter the photograph – the illusion must be made by clever photography.
Create a second photograph to show how you took the photograph.
Include the time and place the photographs were taken.
Please let me know if you Do Not want your photograph posted on the class website. Some of these will be really funny, interesting, and creative, so I will post as many of them on a public forum as possible.
Grading is pretty simple – if you create an original size constancy illusion –along with an explanatory photo and description, you get full credit. If not, you don’t. Have fun with it, and explore how 2-dimensional photography creates 3-dimensional illusions rather than worry about grades.
Apply the eye check – if you don’t see a size illusion, neither will I. If you don’t have an illusion, you have not done the project right.
Send photographs and the description via Canvas by the due date listed in the syllabus. Email attachments are not considered submissions. Must be to Canvas assignment dropbox,
If not sent by the due date, no late photographs will be accepted.
