THE PLAN
AWBAT combine type and image to create a "self-portrait confession" using computer software.
1. Design Software (we used a free, open-source program called Scribus)
2. Typefaces (computers come with a variety of system fonts, but you can always add to existing options)
3. Student portraits (I had them take photos with my phone)
1. Take photo
2. Write and select a positive and negative "confession" about yourself.
3. Compose your self portrait, combining image manipulation (cropping, filtering, etc.) with type manipulation (weight, case, color, etc.)
