Mix and Match

This assignment was designed for us as an opener into the Photoshop application. We had to juxtapose the image that we had taken from around Philly with other images that we had gathered in Philly.

The first one is of a Steve Madden and Barnes and Nobles. I places these to images together because they both show linear perspective and they are contracting in both the literal and subliminal sense. For instance, the Steve Madden is in black and white, and it is also displaying people and shoes; while the Barnes and Nobles is clearly displaying books and is in Color.

The second is of a very famous architectural building in Philly (which i don't know the name of) and a Mannequin. I again juxtaposed color, but also mixing an organic shaped form with a more inorganic, geometric shaped form.

This is my final Mix and Match, where i chose a Fire Hydrant and a window display. Again differences in Black and white, but also the subliminal messaging of desirable and undesirable.
