Hollywood Crop Flats and Flat Adventures
If you are participating in Flat Adventures, then this post is for you.
Creating a Flat is an optional activity that can be lots of fun.
What is a Flat?
A flat is our version of Flat Stanley. You create a flat image of yourself that can go on a variety of adventures with other members of the community.
How do you create a Flat?
Don't overthink it. Flats are meant to be fun caricatures. You can dress up your flat using photos and/or your digital art library. You can custom cut yourself out of a photo and using it as a flat or cut your head out of a photo and piece it together with a variety of shapes. When in doubt, be sure to checkout our Week 1 Webinar where we will briefly review the creation of a Flat. All Flats should be saved in .PNG format without a background. This will make it much easier to go on a variety of Flat Adventures.
Recommended Kits:
There are plenty of kits that have elements you can use to create or support your flat. You can even find some elements in the freebie kits being distributed to you , or content you already have in your library. The following kits were designed with Flat adventures in mind.
