Description:

There is a trend in art posters of taking popular movies and television shows and paring them down to their most basic graphic elements. An example is Jurassic Park as an outline of the glass or a stylized paper clip for MacGyver.

Pick a movie or TV show and try to make as simple an image as possible that would convey the feeling of the show. Think about composition and color. I have included some web sites with examples.

Shoot the Glass

An ATC is 3.5 x 2.5 inches on cardstock. Include your swapbot name and movie/tv title show on the back. Make one card for one recipient. Any art media allowed.

Newbies and International are welcome. Flakers are not. Please contact me directly if there are any problems or questions. I provide prompt answers cheerfully.

This is SUPER COOL! Just watching for now - I'm assessing my current time constraints...but if I have enough time, I'm totally joining!

This has got to be one of the best ATC swaps I've seen in a long time. VERY cool idea!!! Already got like five ideas, so my swap partner may be getting an envelope-full.
