    The document provides instructions for creating photograms, which are photographic prints made without a camera by placing objects directly onto light-sensitive paper. Students are asked to create a series of 3 photogram prints that demonstrate 2 design elements that create 1 principle of design. The document outlines preliminary planning steps and darkroom procedures for arranging objects, making a test strip, and printing photograms, including experimenting with multiple exposures to imply movement.

    make"

    What is a Photogram?

    A photogram is a photographic image made without a camera by


    placing objects directly onto the surface of a photo-sensitive material
    such as photographic paper and then exposing it to light.

    Art Problem:
    • Create a series of 3 photogram prints that are unified
    compositionally through common elements and principles of
    design.

    Below please fill in two elements you will explore in order to create the
    principle of design. For example: ( Line + Value= Movement)

    ___________________+___________________=________________________
    Element Element Principle

    Preliminary Planning:

    You have brought in your objects now you


    will need to do the following:

    1. Make a small drawing (4" X 5") in


    your sketchbook of each object
    and make a list of 10 qualities or
    characteristics of the object
    (smooth, solid, clear, shiny,
    bumpy, ugly, squishy).

    2. Using the specific elements to


    make a specific principle
    compose a thumbnail of each of
    the 3 compositions in your
    journal. This will help you plan
    your arrangement. These 3
    thumbnails will be done in class
    before you make your photogram
    photographs.
    In The Darkroom…..

    First:
    Arrange your objects into
    an interesting composition
    that demonstrates your
    chosen elements and
    principles of design. Refer
    to your thumbnail sketches!

    Remember! Second! Make a Test Strip.

    object or move an object during the exposure time.
