Google Sketch Up

All of you are going to be acting as architects and designing your very own interactive space. 

We are going to be using a program called Google Sketch Up to help turn our 2D flat drawing into a virtual space. 

Here are some examples of interactive spaces you could design

* water park
* dog park
* skate park 
*  playground
* tree house
* etc...

The first order of business is to draw a well thought out blue print of your architectural space. This needs to have complete detail!!

cartooning and comic book characters

Full Body Comic / Cartoon Character. 


All of you will be taking a full body photograph of your friend or yourself in a pose. Once you have your picture you will then be transforming that realistic human figure into a comic/ cartoon character.



You want your character to be posed and very expressive, from head to foot.
You are also going to be creating a dimensional space / background for your character. 





I do no want to see simple, no detail and flat drawings like this.

Silk Screen

Self expression can be shown in many ways, but art and clothing are the most popular ways of showing the world who we are and what we like. 


With this project we are going to combine the two using the art form of silk screening.

All of you will be designing and drawing your own black and white line drawing. Be as creative and expressive as you can in your design. Please do not take a design directly from the internet. It is plagiarism. ALSO stay away from numbers and letters.
