Technique page- Multiple Imagery

Multiple imagery can be create by using a variety of image which may or may not link. The steps below will show how the technique is created within photoshop.

1. Take the desired amount of photo and upload them to photoshop (from 2, 3, 4, 9, 16 ect)
2. Adjust and edit each photo as you wish then flatten each one.
3. Create a new document size may vary depending on how many images you are using however 20 by 20 cm is often good if creating a multiple image with 9 images.
4. Make all the photos which you are using to one size by adjusting the setting on the crop tool (this can be done by adjusting the number which would appear on the top left hand of the screen, as shown in the image below)

The number which are being used should be portional to find out what size to use you can go to adjust the size of the image click 'Image' at the top of the screen to resale a full down set of options chose 'image size'

This option will appear, change the width to 5 or 5.5 or a size of your choosing,( Ensure that is is set to cm and that the resolution is set to pixel/inch). Due to the re-sample option being on automatic it it will automatically adjust the height to size which is proportional. Then use these numbers for the width, height and resolution with the crop option shown above. Ensuring it is set on px/inch on the crop option which can be changed next to the resolution.

5. Put all the chosen images into the new document and move around to a way in which you like.

6. Save the image as a jpeg.

A multiple imagery with two images can be know as diptych and one with three images can be known as a triptych, these are created the same way as described above.
