About the October 28, 2010 Class Session
General Overview
Thank you for your active participation while reviewing the course work on Pictorial Modernism, Heroic Realism and Propaganda Imagery last Thursday.
I have reviewed your Process Books and have recorded the points on Moodle. I view these books as “a work in progress” –so you may update the content of your book pages to up your points if you wish. I will talk about how to do this in class on the November 4th.
Next Week
Next week I would like to start the class with a review and discussion of what you are considering doing for your final project. I will collect your project proposal summary after this discussion. You were to choose one of the three assignments below as your final project.
1. A research paper or presentation that compares two illustrators’ lives, subject matter and styles.
2. A research paper or presentation that documents the growth of a prominient illustrator’s style and work.
3. The creation of artwork that immitates a particular illustrator or style and a presentation of the process of the artwork.
We will then move onto looking at the topic of Children’s Book Illustrations. At 3:00 p.m. Jim Ratliff our librarian will visit the class to talk about the topic research and introduce the research sources in our library in Anna Whiten Hall.
Homework:
1. The homework is to write a summary of what you intend to do for your final project.
For the class session next week:
1. Bring your class supplies with you.
Looking forward to seeing you in class next Thursday – class will start at 1:30 p.m. Please plan accordingly.
