Placement & Collage Design

Video Transcript

"I've just got this piece I cut out with my knife, and I want to talk to you about placement. I cut this out because it has a nice corner and bottom edge, so I'll use that on the bottom edge here. I could also use it here. So I can start in corners, or you can start in the middle. There are no rules. Again, whatever you want to do. But you want to look for shapes that you think will fit, if that?s what you want to do, or you can just cut out anything that catches your eye, and just arrange them as puzzle pieces. I'm laying out things before I adhere them with the glue or tape today so I can try different ways, I can put this here, whatever. You can just experiment, and move things around, and see what looks good to your eye, and what shapes fit where. I think I'd like to put this in the bottom left-hand corner for now, and we can move it around later if we find something else that fits."
