POP ART FINAL PROJECT

POP ART FINAL PROJECT PURCELL CHOOSE AN ARTIST FROM THE POP ART MOVEMENT AND GET IT APPROVED BY MR. P. WE WILL EXPLORE SEQUENTIAL ART BY CREATING A COMIC BOOK PAGE THAT ACTS AS A BIOGRAPHY, USING THE ARTIST AS THE NARRARATOR. THE PAGE WILL CONSIST OF AT LEAST FIVE PANELS AND EXPLORE THE FOLLOWING: WHERE WAS THE ARTIST BORN? WHAT KIND OF TRAINING DID THEY HAVE? WHAT WERE THEY BEST KNOWN FOR? WAS THERE ANY SPECIFIC EVENT IN THEIR CAREER THAT WAS IMPORTANT OR PIVOTAL? AN EXAMPLE OF THEIR WORK THAT BEST REPRESENTS WHAT THEY ARE KNOWN FOR. THE PAGE SHOULD BE RENDERED IN BLACK AND WHITE ON 11 X 17 BRISTOL BOARD WITH TEXT GENERATED DIGITALLY ON WORD AND PASTED ON TO YOUR ORIGINAL ART. (REMEMBER TO PLAN ON LEAVING SPACE FOR TEXT WHEN DEVELOPING YOUR THUMBNAIL SKETCHES.) THE FINISHED PAGE WILL BE GRADED ON THE CONTENT’S ACCURACY AND THE CLARITY OF THE NARRATIVE.

THERE ARE MANY QUALITIES YOU COULD CHOOSE TO FOCUS ON SUCH AS SUBJECT MATTER, SCALE, MEDIUM, COLOR CHOICES/USE OF COLOR, STYLISTIC CHOICES, MEANING/INTENT… ANALIZE WHAT THE ARTIST IS TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH AND HOW THEY DO SO. FOR INSTANCE, WHY DID MONET USE THE COLORS HE DID? THERE ARE VERY SPECIFIC REASONS FOR THIS WHICH WOULD REQUIRE RESEARCH AND UNDERSTANDING OF THE ARTISTS’ WORK.

PRESENTATIONS DURING THE EXAM BLOCK WILL BE BRIEF BUT SHOULD PRESENT TO THE CLASS AS THOUGH NO ONE HAS ANY PRIOR KNOWLEDGE OF THE ARTISTS. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO READ THE PAPER BUT GIVE A WELL THOUGHT THROUGH SYNOPSIS ALONG WITH THE IMAGE. YOU WILL LIKELY BE ASKED SOME BASIC QUESTIONS AS WELL SO MAKE SURE YOU KNOW YOUR TOPIC. THIS PROJECT COUNTS FOR 20% OF YOUR GRADE! PLEASE BE SURE NOT TO PLAGIARIZE IN ANY WAY AS IT WILL RESULT IN A ZERO!! PLEASE DO NOT USE WIKIPEDIA AS IT’S INFORMATION CAN OFTEN BE LESS THAN FACTUAL.

POP ART- WARHOL STYLE 4 DECADE-SPANNING PORTRAIT

STUDENTS WILL CHOOSE AN INDIVIDUAL WHO HAS BEEN A FIGURE IN POP CULTURE FOR FOUR CONSECUTIVE DECADES. ACTORS, ATHLETES, POLITICIANS, MUSICIANS ETC... WE WILL BE WORKING ON A 16 X 20 CANVAS BOARD THAT WILL BE SPLIT INTO 4 EQUAL SPACES. STUDENTS WILL BEGIN BY FINDING PHOTO REFERENCES OF THIS PERSON AND DRAW LIKENESSES IN EACH OF THE FOUR SPACES. THE UPPER LEFT CORNER WILL BE THE EARLIEST OF THE FOUR, THE UPPER RIGHT, THE FOLLOWING DECADE, BOTTOM LEFT AND THEN BOTTOM RIGHT IS THE MOST CURRENT. WE WILL BE USING FLAT COLORS FOR EACH OF THE FOUR IMAGES IN A WARHOL STYLE. EACH IMAGE SHOULD SHOWCASE COMPLETELY SEPERATE COLOR COMBINATIONS.

ADVANCED ART- IMAGINARY LANDSCAPE

ADVANCED ART- IMAGINATIVE LANDSCAPESTUDENTS WILL USE A TEMPLATE BASED ON ALBRECHT DURER'S RHINOCEROS. TRACE THE TEMPLATE ONTO A SHEET OF PAPER AND FIND A MINIMUM OF 7 ELEMENTS (AS MANY MORE AS YOU MAY NEED) TO REPRESNET THE VARIOUS SHAPES THAT MAKE UP THE RHINO. THE ELEMENTS ALL NEED TO BE RELATED IN SOME WAY. THE ARRANGEMENT MAY BE VERY SURREALISTIC AS IN THE WORK OF RENE MAGRITTE AND SALVADOR DALI.EX: USE VARIOUS FRUITS AND VEGETABLES LIKE WATERMELON, APPLE, ORANGE, GRAPES ETC...FINAL PIECE WILL BE IN FULL COLOR USING WATERCOLORS AND COLORED PENCIL ON WATERCOLOR PAPER. BACKGROUND WILL REMAIN WHITE TO ENHANCE THE SHAPE OF THE RHINO.

MS3D What is Industrial Design?

What is Industrial Design?



Industrial design is a multi-disciplinary field of design. “What is Industrial Design?” is a somewhat broad question because industrial design may include a number of different sub-divisions of design. These sub-categories of industrial design may include furniture design, packaging design, car design, product design, lighting design, and a whole number of other types of jobs in applied three-dimensional arts.

Industrial design specifically differentiates itself from these other specific types of design by focussing on the industrialized process. For the most part, everything that an industrial designer creates is intended to be mass produced. Inherent in the design of the object is the design of the process in which the object is made. The question What is Industrial Design ? can have many answers because industrial design overall is focussed on the process by which things are produced, more so then producing a specific item.

Industrial Design Definition
Industrial design is a field that blends together art and engineering with the general goal of creating an object for production. Industrial Design differs from the field of Product Design in that industrial design focusses around objects of industry. Industrial design is a multi-disciplinary field that involves many other aspects of design including graphic design, packaging, furniture, and many more.

Industrial design basically combines applied art and applied science with solid business acumen to create and design a product that is functional, useable and aesthetically pleasing to the eye.

History of Industrial Design
To fully understand what is industrial design, it is important to know the origins of the industry. Industrial design really got its start at the beginning of the twentieth century. Along with growth in technology and the industrialization of the Western world’s manufacturing capabilities, came a need for someone to engineer this process. The phrase “industrial design” was first conceived of by the New Zealand based Joseph Claude Sinel in 1919. In the early days of industrial design, the role of the industrial designer was to merge mass-market production techniques with the skills of traditional craftsmanship.

What is Industrial Design Used For?
The industrial design process is essentially applied to every product that is manufactured and used by consumers. It takes the idea for a new product from the concept stage, through design and refinement to actual production of the final product. The overall aim of industrial design is to basically ensure that a product functions well and does the job required, has an attractive appearance, and is appealing to customers so that it sells. Industrial designers work in a huge number of product categories, with most specializing in a particular field of work. This can range from household appliances to technology devices, furniture, toys, automobiles, tools and a host of other categories.

ELEMENTS AND PRINCIPLES OF ART

ELEMENTS

VALUE- THE DEGREE OF LIGHTNESS OR DARKNESS OF AN OBJECT

LINE- AN ELEMENT THAT IS THE PATH OF A MOVING POINT THROUGH SPACE

SHAPE- 2D AREA THAT IS DEFINED AS EITHER ORGANIC OR GEOMETRIC. A SHAPE HAS ONLY HEIGHT AND WIDTH, NO DEPTH.

FORM- OBJECTS HAVING 3 DIMENSIONS, HEIGHT, WIDTH AND DEPTH.

COLOR-AN ELEMENT DERIVED FROM REFLECTED LIGHT. COLOR HAS THREE PROPERTIES:
HUE- NAMES OF THE COLORS
VALUE- LIGHTNESS OR DARKNESS
INTENSITY- PURITY OF THE HUE OR CHROME

TEXTURE- THE DEGREE OF ROUGHNESS OR SMOOTHNESS OF AN OBJECT. CAN BE TACTILE OR VISUAL

SPACE- REFERING TO THE EMPTINESS OR AREA BETWEEN, AROUND, OR WITHIN OBJECTS

PRINCIPLES

BALANCE- THE CONCERN OF EQUALIZING VISUAL FORCES OR ELEMENTS IN A WORK OF ART

MOVEMENT- TO CREATE THE LOOK AND FEELING OF ACTION AND GUIDE THE VIEWER'S EYE THROUGH THE WORK OF ART.

RHYTHM- INDICATING MOVEMENT BY THE REPETITION OF ELEMENTS OR OBJECTS.

PATTERN- 2 DIMENSIONAL DECORATIVE VISUAL REPETITION, PATTERN HAS NO MOVEMENT.

EMPHASIS- MAKING ONE PART OF A WORK DOMINANT OVER THE OTHER PARTS.

CONTRAST- REFERING TO THE PLACEMENT OF OPPOSITES NEAR ONE ANOTHER. THIS CREATES VISUAL INTEREST, DRAMA AND OR EXCITEMENT.

UNITY- SENSE OF WHOLENESSIN A WORK OF ART ACHIEVED THROUGH EFFECTIVE USE OF ELEMENTS AND PRINCIPLES OF ART. UNITY UTILIZES PROXIMITY, REPETITION, AND SIMPLICITY
