Scanography & Glitch Tutorial
What is scanography?
Scanography (also spelled scannography), more commonly referred to as scanner photography, is the process of capturing digitized images of objects for the purpose of creating printable art using a flatbed "photo" scanner with a CCD (charge-coupled device) array capturing device. (Wikipedia) Website devoted to scanning Tutorial on Scanography National Geographic Scanography Submissions You will create 1 to 2 scanographs using objects and food provided as well as things you brought in Think about: Self Portrait or portrait of someone (keep your eyes closed) I Spy composition Pattern/Repetition Study of a botanical object YOU are responsible for cleaning up the scanner and the area around it - no liquid, sugar, sand, etc. that could scratch the glass or ruin the electronics! |
This project is going to test your compositional skills. You need to make sure you composition is balanced and has a clear sense of organization, Too much empty space will cause your image to lack interest/energy.
How do the examples above use compositional rules to create a stable image? |
Glitch Tutorial
What is a glitch? A glitch is the unexpected result of a malfunction, digital or analog errors of electronic devices like TV, VHS tape, SD card, etc. CHOOSE: The Text Editor and online Glitch Tool (make 7-10 images) OR do the Photoshop Tutorial (1 to 2 images). Use your own images |
ONLINE GLITCH TOOL

Advanced Photoshop tutorial USING THE TEXT EDITOR
!. Make a copy of the image you want to use. Save it as a different file name. 2. Open the image in Text Edit 3. After loading, a document with a wealth of text will appear. The first few lines of text are important and contain information that tells the image how to open. Scroll down to about midway through the text file and select and copy a few lines of text. 4. Paste the copied text into other areas around the middle of the file. 5. Click File > Save As and open the glitched image in Preview to view the result. Always rename your file or you will corrupt the original. Try as many variations as you can to get the best result. |

HDR stands for High Dynamic Range. The dynamic range of a scene tells you how different the brightest parts of the scene (the highlights) are from the darkest parts of the scene (the shadows). The human eye can see a much greater dynamic range than any camera, including the camera of your iPhone.
While your cell phone will do all the HDR work for you, we will learn how to create HDR images through the SLR camera and Photoshop. You will need to take 5 exposures (one underexposed by two stops, one underexposed by one stop, one exposed correctly, one overexposed by one stop, one overexposed two stops) to get the full dynamic range. Tripods are a MUST to line up the scene. |
