Month 3: Art History

I apologize for not having posted anything sooner. We've done several things since I last posted. I've been caught up in other personal activities outside of Full Sail and I decided that it was finally time to sit down and post all of the things that have happened.

Project 3: Stained Glass

So, the following lab after the Prehistoric Digital Painting of the cave painting, we were given the project to do a little stained glass piece. Most people chose simple objects, but since I'm already well versed in Illustrator, I decided to challenge myself a little bit and I did an arch angel.

The following lab after that, the program director spoke about each different program regarding future classes, how to approach being a Full Sail student, and other miscellaneous things. This is a class that you will take at the very start of your program, so that's why he's talking about these sort of things. Since I transferred from Game Art, I ended up taking this class third instead of first.

The following class we had our Mid Term exam. It was fairly easy. All the things you need to know an study for are on your syllabus. There are like, eight things and about ten questions. I ended up getting a 97. I missed one question.

Then, we had a field trip to the Orlando Museum of Art. It was a pretty interesting experience, and they do have a lot of really interesting pieces. The woman who helped give the class a tour was very nice and funny, and made it much more interesting. We didn't have lab that day. Instead, after the trip to the museum, we were allowed to go home.

Project 4: Pop Art

Today in lab, we did a project that mimics the style of Pop Art. You could either use a picture of yourself or do a picture of someone else. I chose Michael Jackson, one, because he's awesome, and two, because he's the "King of Pop." I just thought it was a fun, ironic take on things. I believe I did pretty well. I went into more detail (again) than the rest of the class, but I like how it turned out much more than the class examples.

I also received my grades for Advanced Computer Graphics. I will upload those in a separate post.
