Rundown: Week Ending 5/2/14
Friday, March 28, 2014 at 02:34AM 1st and 2nd Period Graphic Design
In honor of our staff, next week is MMS Staff Appreciation week. To get in on the fun, 1st and 2nd period students are working on a project that they will give to their favorite teacher. Students chose 20 words to describe their favorite staff member and then use those words to create letterforms of that staff member's name.
4th Period Graphic Design
Students are nearing the end of their "Versus" activity, in which they create shapes and space with two digital collages. The two sides of the piece represent two different ideas (fire vs. ice; sweet vs. sour; etc.)
5th Period Animation Lab
This group is wrapping up their partner assignment in which they are attempting to recreate the look and feel of one of the first-ever animated sequences, the 1906 film by J. Stuart Blackton, "Humorous Phases of Funny Faces" (original below).
6th Period Graphic Design
Since we've had a hard time getting syllabi and other early assignments turned in, we did not get on computers again this week. Hopefully we'll be on them on Monday. In lieu of computer work, 6th period students have been exploring line and value through a series of assignments such as making a micrographic self-portrait and their own zentangle hand outline.
