Visual Communication Essentials – Digital Collage

Bring your laptop or tablet, phones may work too! This even works on Chromebooks.
I’ll show you everything you need to know to get started making digital collages using free online tools. This skill makes it super easy to show others exactly what you see in your mind’s eye. You don’t need to rely on your drawing or painting skills. If you can find a picture of it you can put it into your art.

Have you ever had a family gathering and someone couldn’t make it, or someone had their eyes closed but everyone else looked great? I can show you how to fix that! Or show you how difficult it can be, how you need to have certain types of pictures and poses or the idea will look fake.

Digital collage is the computer version of cutting up magazines without the mess or glue. We also have the added functionality of being able to resize, rotate and flip. We have the ability to modify color, make multiple copies and much more.

These skills are awesome for creating things from birthday cards to corporate reports. It is also a great way to visualize things like a dream board or goals. I use digital collage to sketch out ideas for my monsters and other art. It’s a fantastic mode of creating and it makes you super powerful. Make yourself have huge muscles, put yourself in the driver seat of your dream car, make a new type of dog lion bird creature. The possibilities are truly endless.
