Random Project

Step 1. Flip a coin to decide left or right directions.  It does not matter which side is left or right you still have a 50/50 chance.  Once you have assigned directions to your coin roll a 6 sided die to decide how long you will travel in a given direction.

Step 2.  Set a timer for a corresponding value of time in minutes. ( If I roll a 6 I travel in that direction for 6 minutes).  When the timer goes off you will take a picture of whatever it is you are looking at when you are at the end of your time. 

Step 3. Once the picture is taken you will flip the coin to determine if you will take the next available left or right direction. Once you have your direction you will roll the die again to see how long you will travel in that direction once you turn onto it.  (do not start the timer until you make the randomly decided turn left or right)

Step 4. Take a minimum of 6 pictures for the sake of time if you would like to take more than 6 feel free.  No direction other than left and right shall be given, the only time you will be traveling straight is for the duration of your die roll after you make the turn left or right.

Photoshop:

First step: Change the canvas size to fit the image horizontally in height. ( so if i used a sheet of paper that is 8 1/2 by 11 i would make the height of the canvas 8 1/2)

Step 2: Take all your photos and drag them into photoshop and immediately change all the opacity for every image to 80 %.

Step 3: In order to keep the Randomness you must make sure you line the images horizontally in the order that you took them.  When you place the images, place them exactly half way into the image making the image half overlapped on both sides by different images.

Step 4: Once you have laid all the images into place merge all visible layers into one and random number generate 1 number between 80-100.  Take that number and change the saturation of the large image to alter its appearance.

And that should do it!!
