Margaret DeLima

I am so excited to work with Margaret DeLima because it would show me or help me see what I may have to do during my internship. She is a visual artist and is trained in working with clay with happens to be a coincidence because I had thought of a new clay idea I had been meaning to do for a while but didn't know how to make it happen. She also knows how to work adobe photoshop and illustrator which I have recently learned how to use and would love to get a few pointers since I'm not that great on the computer. From the art works I have seen her made it seems that she enjoys working with material and incorporating mix media. The people she mold mainly seem to be self portraits which interest me to see how she sees herself through her work. What I would also like to do is just see what techniques she likes to use because it seems like we do different types or arts. Margaret seems to be more hands on and I would love to learn about how she makes her art works because not everything can always be drawn on paper.

Commericals.

The best part of your week is when you know that you have finish the work that you needed to complete. I was glad that Kalli and I were able to finish the commercial and came out really well.  I wish I would have payed
more attention  to the editing so I would know more for future references. Looking around the room you can see everyone so into their work and all of the different ideas that people have. From old grandmas to we explodes thing Besides that I am looking forward to everything that we are going to do. We have The Prisoner, wall paintings, books, commercials, and STAC live. this is going to be the busiest year I have ever had.Oh and thank you Kalli for doing an amazing job with the editing.

Daily pratice

My daily practice is to write about anything that interest me. At  first I was going to do a the fashion blog but turned into what I found interesting to me that day. In the beginning I had no clue about what I was going to write about fashion. but I started writing why I liked the outfits and what I would pair them up with but I didn't seem to interest me enough so now i have decided to just write about things that entertain or strike my eye. I have a good feeling that i might not be ale to keep up with writing everyday but I'll try to a least write as much as I can.

So glad its over.

As you can tell by my title I am so happy that portfolios are over. I had everything I was gonna do planned out and then I get a email that said everything is due on Wednesday. So I start rushing to get everything finished and I should really stop procrastinating. The Empty Space may have been confusing at some points but overall i think that he has a way of thinking that no one would have realized. he likes to get start to the point but sometimes go against his own thought and you can tell. I think that he is brilliant even though I was about to fall asleep. what i got from the whole chapter was that there was suppose to be balance on stage.

Book Binding and Tell No One

Book Binding was actually fun, whereas I thought I was going to be boring. But I wish i would have brought in a better material to use because a couple people were also using bandannas. Also I don't think you need to know the numbers people have because from some of the books you can tell whose they are. 
When I got an email the first thing my eyes landed on was the subject saying M&A /////////////. To be honest I almost had a heart attack until I saw it was from Luke. Tell No One was one amazing movie and when I tried to explain it to my friends because my mind was so screwed I didn't know where to start explaining. The plot was so complicated and the connection that all of the characters had to each other was almost impossible to explain.

Trip to go see Swan Lake

My favorite part of this trip would definitely have to be the community gardens. They were beautiful and so creative in a whole different way. When my group walked through one of the gardens that were open I was amazed about how much you can do with something so simple. My art teacher always told me that i could always use junk for pieces and i never realized how much you can do with everyday items until I saw the gardens. also the gardens really showed how much people cared about their community in order to put effort into making a plain piece of land so unique.
Also it seem very lucky that my group and Luke got to see one of the buildings before it was going to get renovated. Inside the building you can tell that it was pretty old and use to be a place where they were religious. What I didn't understand was why they were closing down the building except for the fact that it was filthy. Overall the experience to see the building was great and was different.

be kind rewind

This week went by pretty fast and was lots of fun. The be kind rewind movies were more exciting then they sounded. When I talk to my friends they were telling e how they saw Jesus running down the halls. I could only imagine their reactions when they saw everyone in STAC running around. I definitely learned a lot from this  and how you have to really pace yourself. From all of the running around and filming (hoping you don't mess up) it was a learning experience. Also not to use so many places in different scenes when you only have one hour!
