We are on Day 3 of Week 2 of Session 2 already! This week is all about journal exercises, writing scripts, and getting to know film editing concepts! And during downtime- blogging and sock monkey making!
This morning we did a great gesture drawing exercise in our journals. For details about this exercise and to see samples of student work, go to: GESTURE DRAWING. ABSTRACTION.
