Sketch Prompt: New Beginnings

A sketch I made, playing around with the concept of New Beginnings.

Before:

For today’s class opener, you will spend 10-15 minutes making a sketch. your prompt will be New Beginnings. I will say it doesn’t matter if you can’t draw, only that you put down what is in your head, what goes on in your mind when you think about new beginnings and a camera?

Take a picture of your sketch, and upload it to your Google Drive. You can get the app on your phone.

After:

With an elbow partner, discuss what came up in your drawing. How does what you drew in your picture relate to what happened with you and digital photography before?

Tips: If you are struggling with the drawing aspect, start with basic shapes. If you turn the pencil sideways, you can do shading like I did in this image. Try to capture what is in your head, and be kind to yourself, my picture is no masterpiece, but I get what’s in my head down on the page.

Next Up: Exquisite Corpse

Strong’s Farewell Letter

goodbye

This is it, the last day of Photo 1! Please take a few minutes and come up with a few paragraphs about your overall experience in this class.  Tell me a memory, a feeling, the best thing you learned, your favorite project, best moments in class. What made these moments possible? What are your overall impressions of this class? How are you feeling on this last day in here?

Also, if you could give one piece of advice to next year’s Photo 1  students what would that be?

Post these answers into Google Docs and turn it into the assignment on Google Classroom.
