Having Fun with Visual Puns

Simply put, a pun is a play on words. A visual pun is a drawing, cartoon, photograph, etc. that arranges objects in a particular way in an effort to illustrate that play on words.

The Sixth Grade Photoshop class made some visual puns of their own! The first step in this project was to brainstorm ideas that were creative and humorous. After that, the students used Adobe Photoshop to blend multiple images together to create the desired effect.

Sneaker Designs

Sixth Graders are off to a great start in third quarter Photoshop! They jumped right in to designing their own sneakers, learning about layers, swatches, paint tools, selections, effects, and gradients in the process. Check out their original creations, and stay tuned for a very "punny" project next.

Redesign Menu

    Eighth Graders continued to learn about redesigning on a grid by choosing their favorite restaurant menu and redesigning it.  They considered different formats and how to align their columns and rows to create a visually appealling menu that would be easy for people to read and attract people to the restaurant.  Check out the new and improved menus below!





Let's Get Punny!!

Second quarter Photoshop made some visual puns by brainstorming ideas that were creative and humorous. After that, the students used many skills to prepare for a more advanced morphing project  to blend multiple images together, creating the desired effect. Hope we make you chuckle......
