Work on Projects

Work on 3D Abstract Geometric Sculptures

* Spend 5 min mixing and matching the virtual objects in Tinkercad to create your sculpture.

- This is about working fast and getting as many shapes as you can on the workplane in 5 min. After that stop and start a new one! Make as many as possible!

These are due at the end of class on Friday!

Work on Artist Trading Cards

* Create a 9 up of each of your ATCs

- email your finished jpgs to CopyCenter@hartwick.edu to get them printed. Ask for your files to be printed on 8.5x11" card stock.

* Break one of your ATCs into 5-7 layers to be turned into an Augmented Reality image.

- make an account on Artivive

- upload you base layer (jpeg) and your other layers (png) to Artivive

3d Design and 3d Printing

3d printing has been used by industry since the mid 1980's. It is used to print everything from food to guns to human tissue.

Our Makerbot 3D printers work through additive manufacturing. This is accomplished by laying down thin layers of plastic, one on top of the other, to build up a 3d structure.

3D models can be built in 3d software programs or captured with a 3d scanner or digital camera.

Getting your ATC set up for Augmented Reality

* How to split an image into 6 layers

Step 1 - Open your artist trading card in Photoshop. This will be your background in Artivive.

Step 2 - Duplicate the base layer to create a copy on a second layer. Use the 'eraser tool' and/or the selection tools to delete the aspects of the image that you don't want to see on that plane.

Step 3 - Repeat 'Step 2' until you have six total layers

Step 4 - Save your image as a PSD file

Your file can only contain seven layers in total. A background and six other layers.

Lets run through the process! It's all about the "Layers"

Work on Project

Projects

Semester Long Project: Visual Diary

One image uploaded 1 hour before class starts (Mon, Wed, Fri) For this assignment you are required to take a photograph that represents the "moment" you are experiencing before each class. How you interpret this is up to you.

Share this image up on Google Photos in the "Art116 Visual Diary" album.

Project 1

Take 25 photographs exploring Hartwick with the camera on your cellphone. The goal is to take 25 terrible photographs. You need to break all the rules. Try taking a picture while running or getting so close the image is blurry. Take images from a high angle, get low, get close, get far, hold your camera at an angle instead of perfectly horizontally.

Upload your favorite 5 images to the Google Photos Album

  Project 2 Vector Image in Wood

description: For this project you will be creating a BxW drawing that will be converted into a vector graphic and etched in wood or plastic.

1. Using a sharpie create a pattern or drawing or abstraction in a 5" x 5" square on a piece of white paper.

2 . Repeat the process six times

3. Upload the file to the class Google Photos Album

4. Participate in the group critique.

5 . Convert the image that was chosen in the critique to an SVG and email it to the professor.

Things to consider: Your image will be cut out of a 5x5 inch square. The image will need to be in two colors only black and white. The router will etch the black lines into the wood. The white is the wood.

Project 3 Artist Trading Cards

description: For this project you will be creating 'Artist Trading Cards' also known as ATCs. The cards are generally 2.5" x 3.5" in size.

whats due:

- 8 different Artist Trading Cards, 2.5" x 3.5" in size at 180dpi.

- Each card shows examples of your ability to manipulate images using Photopea or Photoshop 

* Each card should have a total of at least five layers:

- Three layers should be generated using ImageFX (link above) of landscapes and/or things

- One texture layer

- One layer of color

- All your cards files need to be uploaded as flattened 'jpegs' to the Google class assignment album.

Project 3.5 ATC - AR Experience

description:

Break one of your Artist trading cards into six layers. Save the layers as PNG files and upload them into Artivive.

Project 4 Virtual Sculpture

For this assignment you will be creating abstract sculptures using TinkerCad and Vectary, 3d molding software. Part 1 - create at least 10 different prototypes 3D models spending no more than 10min on each model. Show the professor your 3D models. Part 2 - Texture wrap the four 3D models the professor picked. Wrap 2 with JPEGs from your artist trading cards. The other 4 can be wrapped with any JPG images you choose.
