The document outlines planning details for a mixed media experiment taking place over two days at York College. Materials including felt tip pens, cellophane, acrylic paints, and textured paper will be used. The first experiment will involve using cellophane as a transparent layer and adding colored pen outlines to contrast emotions in scanned images. A second experiment will explore framing techniques and layering colored papers to create a collage-like effect.

Experiment:
Experimenting and using different resources to achieve this Mixed Media look as another layer to the
photography, creating a collage of colours, textures and patterns.
Firstly I will use the cellophane as a transparent layer which I will then add to form a stencil in
coloured pens as an outline and as well as contrasting the emotion and expression of the scanned
image. For example an expressionless face on the outside is a happy smiley face,
As a second experiment with mixed media I will look further at trying out different effects that can be
created such as the framing of the scanography and bringing colour into the image to achieve
something with layered papers and to look collage like.
