 TASK A
Instruction: Creating Mobile Phone Art /
Computer-generated Art
Depending on the devices available to you, capture an image showing a
tradition or history of a community (e.g landscapes, images of people at
work and play, portrait studies) using your cellphone camera.
Save your captured image or finished illustration in preparation for
transforming it into an example of cellular phone art or computer-
generated art.
Using any of the applications installed in your available device(s),
experiment with different effects and features to modify your saved image
or illustration. You may try some of the following effects, as well as others
offered by the application(s) you are using:
✓ re-size
✓ crop
✓ skew / warp
✓ rotate
✓ flip
✓ adjust brightness
✓ adjust sharpness
✓ change colors
✓ gray scale
✓ sepia tone
✓ apply a texture
✓ superimpose text, trying different fonts
✓ apply frames, borders, or banners
✓ edit out an element that you do not want to appear
✓ add an element that is not in the original image
Save the most unique, striking, or remarkable modified images. Then, print it together with
the original/raw photo and paste it on the worksheet. Be guided by the given criteria
below.
