👉 Here you have the video tutorials to create the mosaic with the film frames. 

You can do any version of the mosaic of portraits ... If you want to use the film framed, here you have the png frame 📷

👀 First you have to prepare the canvas with a resolution of 3300 x 2340 pixels so that you can print it out to a DIN A3 size with 200 dpi as the exercises demands. And then apdapt and calculate the film frame size by dividing the total canvas dimensions into equal rectangles...

Since the photos were taken in a landscape orientation, and there are some of them with two or more people, it is better to mantain this horizontal position in order to be able to keep all people in the take when cropping the image.

👀 Now, once you have the canvas ready with all the film frames you have to set all the portrait pics inside the frames... To do this you have to measure the frame resolution to crop the picture with this aspect ratio and scale it later. See here how you may do it...

👀 And finally crop the final result, export it as jpg and it is done.
