Color Matching: Learning how to see color themes with High School.

This is the first step of a much larger project that has to do with color in photography.

1. Student have to go out and find images that all have matching colors. (6-8 images)
    - Late in the assignment student ask what should I take a picture of, and you can say, "What did you collect for your color assignment?" These are obviously things they like to look at so see how you can recreate your own versions.
2. They then have to place all the images in Photoshop
3. Students then use the ruler tool to separate to the space in Photoshop
4. Then have them resize their images so they all fit together proportionately in the picture.

You then get these really cool little designs. It isn't the hardest or most intense assignment, it only take a day and a half to complete, but the practice is good, and it helps student to start to see color theming in photography.


Here are some Examples:
