I wanted to create a portrait which represented poor internet connection/pixelated. This could have been created by taking photographs during a video call with poor internet connection, but I wanted to mimic this look digitally. To do this I opened my digital image on Photoshop. I then went to Filter > Pixelate > Mosaic. Once on this option, you are able to choose how many tiles you would like your image to have. Either more pixelated or less pixelated. To emphasise how this is due to poor internet connection during a video call, I wanted to show a loading symbol. I took a PNG of a loading symbol and added this as an additional layer on top of the portrait. I wanted this portrait to represent the feeling of being/feeling disconnected. This links to my recent work orientated around COVID-19.
