Physical Model:
1. Most models seemed very abstract and planar, and this construction technique does not explore certain structural realities nor do they explore smaller details relative to construction, body, and program.
Drawing:
2. The images used in the construction of the Photoshop collage were not worked enough in the program or taken in a crisp enough way to use as raw material.
I propose we could host both a Photography and Model Tectonics seminar
Maybe we bring in materials and try building something quick and have them also make some sketch models. I also think bringing in a camera and showing them how to take crisp images and navigate Photoshop's camera raw options would be very helpful and potentially make them more competitive with their peers
Ricardo, I couldn't agree more.
ReplyDelete1. We will have more time during tower to refine models and clarify their techtonics. In fact, since they reside in a techtonic framework we should have a field day! We can take a studio period and implement the seminar.
2. I hope they learn something in these photo seminars to get good raw material; we will be more critical of the resolution of the use of the material as they create the collages.
