sesca91 — 2024-06-25 17:17:42 UTC

Welcome, student artists!

As we wrap up your year as a Sophomore Design Pathway major, it's time to celebrate your creative journey through a unique and exciting project. You'll be crafting a visual narrative of your artistic growth this year, showcasing your triumphs and learning experiences alike.

As you work on your Zines run it through this checklist..

sesca91 — 2024-06-25 17:22:04 UTC

Must Incorporate Principles of Design gone over in class (Unity, Emphasis, Movement)
Must have a VARIETY of different lines (thick and thin), shading, positions, and points of view, and be balanced
Must include One Point Perspective
Clear theme
Creative

Please post a Picture of your ZINE to this column along with a summary of how you've illustrated your story.

For extra credit, you can make an account on this website and make your Zine digital!

Example of drawing yourself as a cartoon for your zine

sesca91 — 2024-06-30 20:19:58 UTC

There are many different ways to create a cartoon version of yourself.

sesca91 — 2024-06-30 20:27:37 UTC

These are some things to keep in mind...

Simplifying facial features
Exaggerating characteristic traits
Developing a unique style
Using basic shapes to construct the figure
Adding personality through expressions and poses

To help you along this process, you will find an array of resources to help you create your Zine. You MUST read the article that says how Zines changed art history, as well as look at at least 4-5 other resources listed in this Padlet. (The Zine examples do not count)

sesca91 — 2024-06-30 20:43:06 UTC

Your first step is to write down the story of your sophomore year as a Design pathway student. This is listed in the FOURTH column of this section, so please post your story there. Two paragraphs will do. This is a short 4-page Zine, so it's best to include projects and moments that were particularly memorable and meaningful to YOU.

For this project you will be creating your own mini magazine, otherwise known as a zine (pronounced "zeen") - that tells the story of your sophomore year in just 3-4 pages. This isn't about judgment or criticism; it's about honoring your artistic process and the dedication you've poured into your work for this year.

sesca91 — 2024-07-01 01:04:48 UTC

You'll use the bold, expressive medium of Sharpie to bring your story to life in a comic book or manga-inspired style.

This zine is your canvas to reflect on the projects that made you proud, as well as those that challenged you. Remember, every piece you've created this year has contributed to your growth as an artist. This Zine serves as your chance to weave these experiences into a visual narrative that you'll present to your fellow classmates

sesca91 — 2024-07-01 01:06:08 UTC

To spark your imagination, I've displayed many examples of past students' & working artists making Zines now below. Let these fuel your creativity, but remember - your zine should be as unique as your artistic journey. So, grab your Sharpies, tap into your inner comic artist, and let's create a visual testament to your year in design!
