Last Day of Class and Final Grades

Hi Everyone,

The last day of class is a week away...  I have been posting comments on your fotothing portfolio as appropriate.  Please take a moment to review the "grading criteria... how am I doing" link in the upper right hand side of the page.  I will be using this to do the final grades.  I called the registrar's office to ask and the last moment I can submit grades is Monday morning, May 9th.

Check with the ADP office about deadlines for incompletes and withdrawals if anyone feels they need to do that.

If I can be of any assistance, please don't hesitate to call...

Projects 8 and 9

I just posted projects 8 and 9. I personally like the number nine much better. I used the letter N and had fun with finally using some color in the design. I liked changing it up and with both projects playing around with flipping and rotating and seeing what I got from it all. Hope you all are enjoying the spring weather!!!

Hi All

Hello

Project Seven

I posted project 7. I did the San Fransico bridge. It's pretty cool, the finished product. Hope you all enjoy!!!

Hello All!

Hi everyone, Sorry for the delay! I have posted Assignment 4's photos on fotothing for your viewing pleasure. I rather liked this assignment it was fun seeing what the image was going to be. One image I thought was going to be boring actually came out nice once I flipped it. Enjoy! Thanks. JREP (fotothing name)

Assignment number 6

So I did a kind of Swirly D this time and was MUCH happier with my product. I just posted them on my fotothing. Let me know what you all think!

Hello Everyone! (Next Assignment)

So I posted some of the "negative and positive space" projects on my fotothing but I will DEFINITELY be re-doing it because I don't like how they came out... but this was my first try and I will be putting up my second try once I get it all done. I have some thoughts already. I loved the examples on the syllabus but mine in comparison are not so great. I think I might make my letters bigger and choose a different letter because the Q didn't work out so well.

How are the rest of you doing with it?

Here is my link since I can't upload on here still.

Project 2

I'm doing project 2 over and I'm stuck I'm following all the directions step by step that your telling us to do and its not coming out right.

FELLOW CLASSMATES!

Can I please have your fotothing names so I can look at your work as well! I would love to enjoy what you are doing as well!

New Post!

So I posted my new piece. I practiced first with the S, like our examples that were giving us. Then I made one big piece with an "L". They are so pretty and if I wasn't told how they were done and just came upon the picture I wouldn't even know that it was a letter making such an intricate design. I hope you all had fun too!

Academic Expectations

Academic Expectations:

Post at least twice a week to the class blog. Care about the quality as well as quantity of your creative work, help and collaborate with others in the class, communicate openly with me…. Do your best. Your portfolio posted toFotothing will be the tangible evidence of your progress in the medium but your overall contributions will play a role in determining your grade as well. Don't wait until near the end, then try to get your work done in a rush... that's like skipping class all semester. A minimum of 50 projects posted to your fotothing account is suggested. You may keep working on earlier assignments until the end. You may replace earlier work with newer work you like better. Your final grade is based on "The Big Picture", that is, how well you have tried to understand the assignment and worked to create pieces reflecting the spirit of the task at hand, your progress in the medium, your contributions through posting comments on other's work on the class blog as well as on fotothing. Effort counts! Qualtity as well as quantity count!

Project #4

I tried once again to post an image on here and it didn't work. I have posted the mirrored images projects on the fotothing (lrmattei) tonight. There are four images. I had a lot of fun with this one.
