ASSESSMENT

Our first assessment day went well. Found that my technical skills are good (even though i had to miss so many Premier and AEffects classes last term). My creativity concepts need work, I know this but it is difficult because my 'art tastes' are very different to Davids. I like to be able to see the image clearly but am learning to just go with it, and layer images even if i don't like the final look, i'm still learning the process which will be useful in the future.

David can we do some of our 'own' projects in the final term, based on what we've learnt this year???

Got slightly carried away with links to the website below....but found myself saying wow!

Paper Tower Project

I'm doing lots of research into nature shapes and geometric shapes and origami to find out what will be the strongest for the tower. I can see many a late night folding origami towers!
