Week 1 _ Beginnings

Today we did some attendance drawings together and went through the syllabus to go over the course structure. 

We drew DINO UNICORN and scenes from its life on index cards. I'd like you to continue this exercise for homework _ DUE, Weds. 8/27

Dino Unicorn: This is Your Life (Continued)  

Keeping your character design and visual language consistent with the panels that you made in class, use the following prompts to draw other moments in Dino Unicorn’s story. (Draw at least 8 of these>>>)

• In a fight/disagreement
• Pigging out
• On a date
• Working Out
• Cleaning the “house”
• Feeling blue
• Late for something important
• Packing for an adventure
• Mid-way through an adventure
• Underwater
• Using some kind of “technology”
• Hiding from someone bigger

FORMAT:

• Use 3x5” index cards, one-side only, vertical-orientation. 

• Use Flair pen. Black/White/’Optical’ Grey only. 

• Don’t forget to denote the “Live Area” by drawing a rectangle within each card as a panel border!

• Use a timer! (the length of a song for each panel)

Bring these and the panels that you drew today to class for an activity on Wednesday!
