Week # 1 Poses Tian

  • Assignment: Excitement Poses
  • Approx. 0.5 hours to draw.
  • Excitement – dancing, jumping, cheering. I find it is hard to grip the body proportion, especially in moving process. To represent body language is interesting and so useful to catch the points to improve my drawing.

Week # 1 Drawing–Head Tian

  • Assignment: Head
  • Time: Approx. 1 hr to draw/ Approx. 0.5 hr to process (scan, compare, upload )
  • What I Discovered In this Exercise: I find that it is quite difficult to draw this two doggie heads. I do not have some experience of drawing, I mean I have no background. This is my first try. It is difficult to control the drawing lines, and also the position.

Week #1 Drawing – Sandy Yoon

  1. Construction of the Head
  2. Approx. 1 hr to draw / redraw, 1.75 hr to process ( scan, overlay, upload )
  3. What I Discovered In this Exercise

I discovered that following each of the individual steps too carefully / literally may have lead to tiny inaccuracies in the final drawing. However, it was very helpful to use construct the drawings by using the formula. It was also important to keep measuring angles and proportions both on the macro scale of the drawing as well as the detailed parts.

Weekly Skill Work:

DRAW

POSES

  • descriptive word: EXCITEMENT
  •  descriptive word pair: AGGRESSIVE EXCITEMENT

ANIMATE

  • 3 short animations of a rigid ball bouncing. (A rigid ball does not give when it hits a surface. A golf ball is an example of a rigid ball.) No rotation. You must use a traditional technique.
    • ball should start off screen and make contact with the ground at least twice during each animation
    • vary the timing and spacing with each animation
    • REFLECT: How do the variations in timing and spacing seem to affect how the audience views the weight of the ball?
