Studio Project #2: Sketches Post

To help you prepare for your last studio project, as I mentioned in class last week, I want each of you to compile your thinking, research, and ideas for studio project #2 into a post on your blogs. You will be meeting with the your assigned small groups to discuss your ideas this week, so be sure that you are prepared to get the most learning value from this conversation by insuring that you are ready to discuss your ideas and have your post on your blog BEFORE class starts today.

Here’s what I’m looking to see in this post:

1.) 3 sketches of different ideas for the project. Try to push into exploring several different concepts, so each drawing or sketch describes a different idea. Use whatever materials make sense to you to work out your ideas, but insure that digital images or scans of your sketches are posted on you blogs so that I can give you credit for your ideas so far.

2.) Indicate what surface design techniques you plan to use and what materials you plan to use. Anything we learn in class is fair game. You can also incorporate other materials along with fabric into this project, but please discuss any unconventional material ideas with the professor to insure they are appropriate.

3.) Indicate your construction plan this project. How will you make it? How will it be presented for the critique? Where in the studio will it be presented? Do you need to make any special plans or preparations to ensure it is presented properly to best express your idea?

5.) Indicate the shape and scale of the work. How big is your project? How does the form and scale of the work relate to your ideas? How does the form and scale of the work relate to your research artist?

6.) Indicate the particular body of work or work you are responding to and describe your response. How does your work differ from your artist source and how is it related?

Please do not consider this post and our small group conversations that we will have on Thursday as an approval process. You are encouraged to start on you project when you have found an idea that you are excited to explore. You are free to get started on your project before you meet with your group, if you have not started already.

Awesome/Terrible Banners Project Sketches and Ideas Post

To help you prepare for your first studio project, I want each of you to compile your thinking, research, and ideas for studio project #1 that was introduced last week into a post on your blogs. You will be assigned small groups on Thursday to discuss your ideas with, so be prepared with a post on your blog BEFORE class starts on Thursday.

Here’s what I’m looking to see in this post:

1.) 3 sketches of different ideas for the project. Try to push into exploring several different concepts, so each drawing or sketch describes a different idea. Use whatever materials make sense to you to work out your ideas, but insure that digital images or scans of your sketches are posted on you blogs so that I can give you credit for your ideas so far.

2.) Indicate what surface design techniques you plan to use and what materials you plan to use. Anything we learn in class is fair game. You can also incorporate other materials along with fabric into this project, but please discuss any unconventional material ideas with the professor to insure they are appropriate.

3.) Indicate your construction plan this project. How will you make it? Will it be made from one large piece of fabric or smaller pieces sewn together? Are you sewing on the sewing machine or by hand? How does the flag hang?

4.) Indicate how does your project to take into account both sides of the work. Is there a specific front or back or does the work read the same on either side? 

5.) Indicate the shape and scale of the work. Are you using the typical flag rectangular size? Are you making something the same proportion as a regular flag (3 feet by 5 feet) or a different size or shape? How do these choices reflect the ideas you want your flag to describe?

Please do not consider this post and our small group conversations that we will have on Thursday as an approval process. You are encouraged to start on you project when you have found an idea that you are excited to explore. You are free to get started on your project before you meet with your group, if you have not started already. 

Your post is due by the start of class on Thursday, September 28th.
