Collage style from one photo - whats it called?

heidi · 10-09-2007, 23:36

I'm trying to remember what the term is when you take one photo - cut it up into lots of images to print at say 6x4 and put the image back together using the individual 6x4s.

I found this which is something like what I'm after but not quite:

If anyone knows the terminology I'm after - my google searches are not useful - it would be most appreciated.

Photo montage?

Thanks Mark.

I searched photo montage and got tutorials on multiple image montages but thats cool.

The good news is I worked out a faster way of doing them without trying to remember the word!

Should be fun. I've been so bored at work I've done two already!

Kind of. What I ended up doing was taking the photo over into Image Ready. Splicing it evenly and saving the splices as individual jpegs. Printed the jpegs as 6x4s and reassembled the pieces with a small gap between each and it's now tiled on the wall. Have taken a photo of what it looks like on the wall, so will upload that tonight.

Wow! That looks some pic, Heidi! I didn't know there were that many cars in NZ!

So, how many frames did you shoot to get that?

It is the same car. Exposure about three weeks

LOL. Thats about enough of that you two!

Was shot on Sensia and cross-processed. I'm quite pleased with it but I've got a few from the same time to choose from with different exposure times - none of which were three weeks -

Will have to upload the complete image.
