How to submit your work for grading

weekly Progress Presentations:

What to Show:

Original work is preferred (concept art is welcome, and/or developed surfaces are preferred. A combination of concept work and modeled surfaces in every presentation is ideal).

Tutorial work is also accepted if it shows a unique approach to the tutorial, or a unique variation.

Show us your thoughts in any medium (video, writing, flip book, drawing, sculpture, painting). Your thoughts must be relevant to your modeling work.

We are looking for well developed work that spans an entire week of dedicated time. Please spare us from the things you put together only on Wednesday night because there is a critique on Thursday.

For the critiques:

Present to class your concept art and any preliminary modeling work you have done. --> This is a formal oral presentation and your mid-term report will be based on it.

All your concept art must be presented in printed format
(use good photographic paper for digital files). If you use pencil or ink present the original drawings.

For the final critique:

Submit a folder containing the following:

1. A DVD (or CD) with your work. The disk must be labeled neatly with the following:
   • Student Name
   • Course
   • Semester and Year
     • Use permanent marker to write on your disk. Do not use stickers, or printed labels
     • Put your disk into a case or paper disk folder (paper folders are preferred).
   • Organize the contents of your DVD (or CD) like so:
     • Create three folders and copy in them the appropriate art work. Name them like so:
       • Final Models
         For each model save
         • The original scene as an .mb file
         • At least one rendered tif or iff image
       • Concept Art
         Save here all your concept art. JPG files are preferred at least 500 pixels tall or wide. If concept art was created in pencil, it must be scanned and saved here as jpg files.
       • Tutorials
         Save here all the final tutorial files you performed
       • Other work <-- optional for those who like to submit other extra work
2. A typed list of contents must accompany the DVD (or CD) .
   the paper must contain the following:
   • For each artwork specify the file name
   • Include a thumbnail of a representative screen shot of this artwork
   • A short explanation of processes and tools used in the completion of the artwork (I mean short; no more than five lines each), and your involvement in the process if this is a group effort.
3. A printed cover page explaining your artwork, the process, and the concepts explored. The cover page must not exceed one page.

For group projects submit all of the above plus a list of all modelers in the team and their individual responsibilities.

Dates are posted on the class' calendar.
