February Overview

Before it's too late, I should update on my progress.

With Angela's monday class, we had been researching Andy Warhol and Pop Art, so then we took profile pictures, picked our favourite and traced over the picture on the projector, and painted ourselves in a Pop Art/Cartoon style, with creativity to do what we want with it, colours, extra detail and so on. I managed to complete my piece yeserday.

With Brian and Taylor's tuesday classes, I have been off on tuesday for the past 2 weeks, so I missed out on quite a bit, mainly researching images and draft text, being introduced to Scribus. However, I caught up on that today.

With thursday's classes, we had done a questionnaire about the difference between two Michael Jackson videos, then we visited BBC Studios Glasgow to appear in the audience for "In it to win it" with Dale Winton. It was a good day. The college had in-service days last thursday and friday so we weren't in.

Review of the Week: 25/1/10 - 31/1/10

Monday:
We went to the library to research popular artist Andy Warhol and his work. We had to select 3-5 pieces that we really liked and explain why we chose those images and why we liked them.

Tuesday:
We got 2 new lecturers today, we were introduced to Brian who has took over from Ewan, and Taylor who has took over from Laura. We looked at the anatomy of a magazine and the terminology involved. We traced a double-spread and outlined certain aspects of the piece and annotated the features of the structure. With Taylor, we looked at different styles of learning and created a piece to reflect our style, which we found out by answering questions.

Thursday:
We pulled everything together and finished off the animation project, put everything in order, sound effects, etc. Really glad we managed to finish this, the project was quite stressful.
