We are made wise not by the recollection of our past, but by the responsibility for our future. - George Bernard Shaw

Week 6, Thing 14: Movie Poster!

Thing 14 was the best yet! Image generators can be a lot of fun, you're limited only by your imagination. I went to Big Huge Labs where the tagline is 'Helping you do cool stuff with your digital photos since 2005'. You can create vintage photos, magazine covers, jigsaws, movie posters, and more with your own photos. I used a photograph from the Whitby Online Historic Photographs Collection to make a funny movie poster! In a way this is kind of like public history. Cultural institutions could use image generators to make historic photos more relevant and even a little funny.
