Group B (23 & 24/10/08)

Drawing Task

Split into two groups of four, we were asked to chose a photograph to draw. The catch was we were each given a separate section to do on an A3 piece of paper.

I know my group, who put together the 'Harry Potter' drawing (right), were very pleasantly surprised at how well it turned out. Working in a team to create a piece of art was a challenge to some and totally new to all of us, but we were all pleased with the result.

Building A Scene Task

For this task, the group was shown a short trailer from the movie Outpost and also a small documentary on the set design and construction from the movie; we were then shown some pictures of the set as stimuli to make our own version of the set. We opted for an old, distressed sewer wall with rust dripping from pipes that were attached to the walls.
