What I've Been Up To! Metamorphosis Project


This is all for a project in which we have to morph one image to another. The theme is social justice and we could pick any social justice theme we wanted. I chose bullying. More specifically, the bullying of girls who are not overweight, but are normal size girls who aren't tall and thin runway models. The morph shows how destructive taunting and bullying can be.


This picture is ALL of the pictures I gathered in the beginning so I could start tracing, collaging, and building the beginning and end pictures of my morph.


After I gathered my pictures, I started sketching and tracing bits and pieces of the images onto vellum paper. Vellum is like tracing paper but more crisp and velvety. I tried a lot of different things and went a lot of different ways in the beginning.


After I was done sketching, being frustrated, and doing absolutely nothing in class except playing with my kneaded eraser for a few days, I came up with these final sketches. I decided to keep these because they best represent my message. The first image for the morph is the top left image, and the last image for the morph is the top right.



This tiny pictures is actually of the morphing process. I have to add one more between number 2 and three so there isn't such a drastic change. I also have other details to add and fix on images 4 and 5. I'll be sure to post the final morph!


Peace and Love!
