Instructor Feedback:

You're catching on !

Some of this is really quite good, but there are other areas you can correct - see: http://screencast.com/t/LubDTbp81t

Your presentation looks pretty good, notice the file size we need is 72ppi and about 600 px W x 800 px H.

Week 1: Assignment 3 Translating Interiors into Perspective

This assignment will familiarize you with methods used to translate a plan view and elevation view into a one-point perspective view. Observing simple objects and furniture in your own environment, you will be able to visually compare their proportions and illustrate them in your drawing. You will also learn the methods of creating a one-point perspective room interior complete with these simple interior objects.

By Friday, June 26, 2015, complete the following drawing assignment and post it to this Discussion Area.

Download and print out the plan view, elevation view, and perspective view grid templates provided below. Choose at least 4 objects found in your own home and compare the heights and widths of these objects using the sighting method discussed in this week’s lectures. Using your pencils and a ruler, translate these objects and observed measurements to your plan view and elevation view templates, creating an interior space. Be sure to keep objects consistently placed in each view of the space. Include the following:
At least 4 objects in the layout of the room, observed from your own home. Place these objects within both grid layouts. Avoid too much detail on the objects, keep the shapes basic.
One window or one door referenced in both grid layouts.

Using the completed plan view and elevation view grid templates as a guide, translate the objects of your interior to a one-point perspective view using your pencils and a ruler.

Develop the space slightly to make it feel more three-dimensional. Submit to the Discussion Area.

Revisions

Submitting a revised assignment based on feedback from your instructor is strongly encouraged. This will help ensure that your assignment is completed correctly and allow you to develop your work to its fullest potential. Revisions provide an opportunity to improve your grade and are due by the end of the week. Instructor feedback on revisions will be included in the Gradebook.

Examples

Below are examples of this assignment. Copying these examples will result in a loss of points; be original in your efforts.

Week 1: - Assignment 2 

Assignment 2: One-Point Perspective In Action

This assignment will familiarize you with the methods of drawing shapes in one-point perspective. You will also get a working knowledge of the three characteristics of linear perspective and how they influence depth in a drawing.

By Wednesday, June 24, 2015, complete the following drawing assignment and post it to thisDiscussion Area.

Using your drawing pencils, paper, and ruler, first lightly draw a horizon line and label it HL. Then draw one vanishing point somewhere along the horizon line and label it VP. Use that one vanishing point to fill the page with cubes, rectangular prisms, and triangular prisms drawn in one-point perspective.

Draw at least 3 examples of each basic shape: cubes, rectangular prisms, and triangular prisms. This will result in a minimum of 9 shapes.

Create shapes that demonstrate convergence and diminishing size by making a few of the shapes get smaller and closer together in the background.

Shade in the foreshortened sides of at least 2 shapes.

Ensure that some shapes are above the horizon line, some are below the horizon line, and some are crossing over the horizon line.

Leave approximately half of your shapes transparent (see-through) and make the remaining shapes opaque (solid) by erasing away the hidden edges. Do not shade in the shapes with your pencils to make them look solid.

Leave your guidelines lightly sketched in, and then switch to a softer (4B, 6B) pencil to darken the finished shapes to help them stand out against the guidelines. Do not press down hard with your pencil.

Week 1: Day 1 - Autobiography

By Monday, June 22, 2015, please write a quality autobiography by stating your drawing-related experience and including a pre-instructional drawing of animagined interior scene that uses one-point, two-point, or three-point perspective.

• Your autobiography should be one to two paragraphs in length and should be written using correct spelling and grammar.
• The drawing of the interior space should be invented, not based on an existing interior. Complete the drawing with pencil on paper and include the following elements:
• Furnishings.
• An adult figure (yourself, a family member, or friend)
• A light source with cast shadows

As stated, you may choose the level of perspective for your interior scene drawing. A one-point perspective view is directly facing a wall. A two-point perspective view is directly facing the corner of the room. A three-point perspective view is a very high or a very low point of view.

It is understood that this drawing will be completed with no prior direction from this course. The drawing will not be graded based on quality; it will simply be used to measure your overall growth in the course. Do your best given your current skill level and have fun with the exercise.

Autobiography Bridgette Bandell 6/21/2015  Hello everyone, my name is Bridgette Bandell and I am a 29-year-old mother of 6 who recently moved to Richland, Washington. I have chosen to pursue an education in Graphic Design to obtain my bachelor’s degree. I have always been a creative person drawing, coloring, editing almost every picture I can before anyone sees it, etc. I have experience in J Wildfire and Photoshop CS6, and some GIMP but not much. Graphic design started as a hobby, but when I realized I loved it, I wanted to go further. I have already successfully started my own company Bookworm Productions. We are an independent author, service provider. I have already created some successful book covers for authors and edited two books and would like to be able to have a better grasp on a few things designing wise so that I can make better covers and have the schooling behind me to prove that I know what I am doing in this field! I can't wait to be able to give my customers the best I can do for them! Some examples of my most recent work for some books on Kindle are as follows: Raven's Armor -  http://amzn.to/1uVveKu  Zombie Addiction -  http://amzn.to/1kKVLjH  On Dreaded Wings -  http://amzn.to/15uV5Oq
