Create > Forced Perspective Photographs

Create > Forced Perspective Photographs




Goal: Create two effective images that exploit the illusion of forced perspective


Studio Activity:
Intentionally change the perspective of the photo by placing a small item close to the camera and a large item further away behind it.  Utilize a deep depth-of-field so make sure that your foreground and background remain in focus.  Work in aperture priority mode if possible.


Trigger Mechanisms: Creativity, Illusion, Depth-of-field

  • Where are the dominant shapes, forms, colors, or textures that carry expressive significance?
  • Why Is the work ordered and balanced or chaotic and disturbing?
  • What gives the work its uniqueness?
  • Is symbolism used in the work to convey meaning other than what one sees?
  • Does the work evoke any feelings?
