America Mood Board

Mood board Part I: Research

America- I perceive America as being a melting pot of lots of different things and people. It also represents freedom and the “American Dream” (white picket fences). I think of outdoor activities, such as picnics and sports.  

Mood board Part II: Visuals

1. Places Visuals:

2.  Textures Visuals:

3. Objects Visuals:

Mood board Part III: Colors

Colors I think of with America include red, white, blue, and green.

Mood board Part IV: Execution

1. Places:  I plan to go to Indiantown Gap to take pictures at the nation cemetery because they have lots of monuments there. I also plan to take pictures at a picnic ground.

2.    Textures: I plan to go around my house and surrounding area to try and find some green grass areas. I also plan to go walking around the nature trail near the local elementary school to get the nature-y textures.

3. Objects: For objects I took pictures down in Washington D.C. and at the National Cemetery.

Mood board Part V:  Bringing it together

I plan to make one of my pictures of a picnic and incorporate in different sports objects. For my other image I plan to incorporate in the idea of the “American Dream”.

I will add in textures to the car picture to make it seem vintage and will add in textures to the monument picture to make it more summer-y so it seems more around Fourth of July.

I plan to add car like objects to the car image and other household items that remind me of America and pictures from around DC (such as small parts of monuments and common surroundings) that are patriotic to the monument picture.
