French Cute Kid Tells Story  

WALDEN POSTER due Monday, December 8th
Poster requirements
A. Choose a quote from Walden. Then take a photo that illustrates the idea in the quote. superimpose/paste the quote on the photo (see examples). No need to print in color. You may draw or paint your picture.
B. Type 3/4-1 page single-spaced explaining what the quote means AND how your picture illustrates that idea. For example, you will likely talk about the subject of the photo and what it, he, she, they are doing and how this relates to the idea of the quote. Sometimes students discuss lighting and other aspects of the photo, which can be very effective. This sheet of paper will be displayed with your quote, so don't go over 1 page. 
Often photos are more powerful if the subject of the photo is emphasized by blurring the background. The following apps enable you to do this:
