Carosel - Art & Design - 19/9/17

  1. For this weeks carosel we got a chance to do some art & design. We did this again over two days & it tested our ability to not exactly draw but to mostly listen to instructions i feel whereas the second part of tuesday's lesson & First part of wednesdays lesson, it gave us a chance to try some printing/press printing, which reminded me of when i did Resistant materials in secondary school in a way, but that could be because of the machine we used to do the prints & also to improve our "structure making skills" which was first part of wednesdays lesson. 
  2. List under the following headings:
  • Research & skills - The research & skills we carried out, & learnt, during this weeks carosel, i feel, was how to follow instructions to create tiny bits of art (we did part of this by drawing to music), How to print/print press & how to Create mini structures out of our drawings from the lesson from tuesday. The skills part being i feel how to use the print machine & how to make mini structures.

  • Any tools that you used - we used many tools throughout this weeks carousel for us to be able to partake & complete the tasks we were set through both days. Those tools we had to use were:
  • scissors
  • paint
  • print machine
  • pencils
  • pens
  • our phones/cameras (for wednesdays first lesson)

Monday Library Visit With Steve

On mondays lesson, with Steve we went to the library, the purpose of this was to do more research for our current learning subject of Order & Chaos photography. As we had already done research using computers & created mood boards of sorts, but this time it was to mostly collect pictures & research a different way, well collect research that is accurate as the internet can be decieving but it was mostly to get ideas for what we want to do for our own attempt at order & Chaos (we do not have to both we can do either one).

Kaleidoscope

For this lesson i was set a task of creating a a kaleidoscope image using a DNG file (or the option of using a RAW file is also there) in photoshop. for those that do not know, a Kaleidoscope image is an optical instrument with two or more reflecting surfaces, which are tilted to each other in an angle, so that one or more (parts of) objects on one end of the mirrors, that being the image which is used, are seen as a regular symmetrical pattern when viewed from the other end, due to the repeated reflection. it is also dubbed as the kaleidoscope effect. This is the first time i had ever tried to create this process with a photo, plus during the lesson i also learnt what kaleidoscope is and what its definition, and its other known variations, especially as for years before i kept hearing the term kaleidoscope, and i had no idea what it was. For the process of creating the kaleidoscope image, i struggled may times, and did a few slip ups, as the image would not flip the way i want...
