Video Considerations:

Your GROUP Video should be a “BEHIND the SCENES” look at the process of how your group came together to find the overarching connections between your shared experiences, related emotions, surface designs, colors and silhouettes.

Be sure to include what you need to tell your STORY! Consider:

-Each member sharing their individual experience (Interviews, if applicable)

-Some summary of the overarching themes and how that came together as a shared experience/design direction

-Any and all Still images or Video or your Individual and “Hybrid” Surface Designs, Colors and Garments (flats and illustrations)

-Your Paper Drapes

-Any and all Still images or Video of locations, settings, work process, etc.

-Any playlist/music that would support the collective theme

These are recommendations...you may, of course, add or revise, based on your group experience.

Remember: Video can be edited, using any software and should be 2-4 minutes approx (depending on the size of your group, etc)

Any questions, reach out! Good luck...

If you love making collages with scissors, glue, mom’s magazines and dad’s subscriptions when you were growing up, there is no reason to stop now. Collage is a specific technique of art that is made from different pieces of artworks which create a new, improved, sometimes perfect look.

THE SYNTHESIS (Focus and Considerations)

Key Ideas: Relationships, Cohesion, Variation, Consistency, Integration, Overlap, Parallels, Amalgam

Definition of SYNTHESIS: 1a : the composition or combination of parts or elements so as to form a whole 1b : the production of a substance by the union of chemical elements, groups, or simpler compounds or by the degradation of a complex compound 1c : the combining of often diverse conceptions into a coherent whole; also : the complex so formed 2a : deductive reasoning 2b : the dialectic combination of thesis and antithesis into a higher stage of truth

WRITING PROMPTS:

1-How does our distinct perspective and voice manifest itself across the spectrum of our creative processes? (Designing with various design elements from your group, how do you still communicate and convey your own DISTINCT VOICE?)

2-Where do we see consistency, connecting threads (and/or dissonance?) in our messages (VOICE) across various forms of expressions (digital, analog, visual, verbal, figure drawing, clothing design, image creation, surface design, layout and presentation)?

3-In what ways do you create a unique and authentic hybrid of these considerations/skills/techniques to express a cohesive integration of your point of view (IDENTITY and VOICE)?

FOCUS:

As we continue to acquire a greater level of proficiency in our communication and observation skills, we will continue to explore the relationships between various design considerations and elements as we examine the points of intersections between fashion to ourselves, and to the world around us. Looking at fashion and non-fashion objects in context, we will break down assumptions, experiment with and create new associations.

Continued emphasis on creating cohesive integration of Body/Clothing/Surface/ Pattern / Color/ Movement/ Dimension/ Layout/ Composition/ Type/ Narrative (verbal and visual) Learning Outcomes addressed: ALL
