Why do we document our lives?
Who was the first and when?
Who is Ansel Adams?
1. What does it mean to be an artist who documents the world around us? Learn the basics of DSLR photography and work on taking pictures with nobody in them. Turn in a series of 5 Black and White Photos that you have edited with Mat to learn about post-production. Send these to Costco for a nice print before critique (3 days notice for Mat to print)
-I have some 3d printed box cameras w/ black and white film if anyone is interested in a challenge?
2. Dia de Los Muertos Art Show: I want to have a party and Art Show on November the 1rst for the Day of The Dead. I anticipate decorating the back learning center to match the theme and invite everyone to make a proper day of the Dead Artwork for the show. I am a huge fan of the skateboard deck paintings and have a small collection of my own to display with student Art. I am open to all genres and would love to see animations or sculptures that match the theme. We will watch Tim Burton's Nightmare Before Christmas to get some creative ideas. Talk to me soon so you can spend the month on something grand.
2. What is stop animation? Who is Tim Burton? Create an original animation of your choice based on your skill level. Some of you are good at this and I expect more than I have seen in the past. Choose a spooky theme for Day of the Dead or use found objects to create "ghost movements"
3. Inktober: get involved-draw everyday and work through your frustration in the name of creativity. Here is the list of themes for each day. I will have an award for anyone who finishes all the prompts and I will feature you as a student artist on our blog and instagram. This is a great portfolio item for juniors and seniors.
-illustrate everyday/ don't give up-save all evidence- no matter how bad you think it is!
-check the site daily for rad examples!
4. Mini ghost sculpture in any medium-clay/ paper mache/ 3d printed/ sculpey/ resin and sheets.
-make a mini ghost and use the idea of the upside down bowl to create a sheet that supports your sculpture.
