Ceramics 2: Final Project Challenge (SYNOPSIS day)
- Reflect, articulate, and edit the development of artwork throughout the creative process.
- Apply knowledge and skills to symbolize an idea by working in teams to create a fictional movie title.
The day after…Keep in mind that the next few days are going to be rather fast-paced with tons of stuff to keep in mind. To help you guys through the confusion, and to make sure that you have as much time as possible to work, I’ve linked every “Help Folder” for this project on the side tab.
The following slides are also broken down by parts/responsibilities to make it easier for your group members to see what is needed:
- Hero and Villian Requirements
- Supporting Character Requirements
- Object of Desire Requirements
- Movie Poster Requirements
Along with those links is a folder that I’ve been able to collect some different versions of examples. These are not the “end all, be all” for diorama examples out there, but it is a start for your group when trying to locate ideas.
