Week 3: Hockney, Talking dogs and mixed media

On Monday we introduced the basics of working with the camera including Aperture, shutter speed, f stop, ISO, DOF, RAW, rule of thirds and a slight digression to the golden mean.

With the Hockney assignment we talked about the idea of "Variations of a theme" and continued with the assignment.

Public Art: Discussion using the De Bono's 6 hat theory, some interesting questions such as "If dogs could talk what would change?" If you find yourself looking at problen solving with one approach..this may help you think is a more flexible way.

There is some urgency in developing the proposal for the Nocturnal Project.. Please type up your proposal in Word and email to me asap. The Public Art assignment gives a break down of the headings for the proposal.

Basic demonstration of using drawing materials ..you are asked to develop the drawings as set in the assignment.
