Today we had a group tutorial with Sarah. I've been worried lately about the amount of work some people have been doing. I feel like I have produced a good amount of work so far, however a couple in the group don't feel they need to do the same. Most of us turned up for the tutorial, however the same few didn't The only thing that irritates me about this, is that we could get some really good ideas from all of us sitting down and showing each other our work. I know we do this quite regularly however, it's the same people turning up to the group discussions. Nevertheless, I think the group that we've made on facebook does really help to organise when and where we're going to meet. Just some people need to communicate better.
Anyway...back to the tutorial. We sat down with Sarah and each of us discussed, individually where we were going with the project and also what the group as a whole wanted to do. Some of the points made:
- We need to look at where we're going to exhibit our work- would it be good to find a hairdressers, seen as it's to do with faces?
-Think about what surface to work on- will we be distorting things in a 2D or 3D way?
-Each of us should choose 2 faces each and share them with the group- this will mean that we can experiment with different images
-Include colour
-Experiment with low relief
The key thing that has helped me to move on with my own work is to include colour. I really enjoy working with colour and it's a key part of my work usually, however I've felt like I shouldn't include it within the project yet as it may push me in a different direction. Nevertheless, I'm definitely going to start bringing it into my work!
When it comes to problems with some of the members of the group, Sarah told us that we should just be harsh. At the end of the day, we're not going to get marked down because of them. Obviously it is a shame that they're not turning up/doing much work, but we've got some good ideas and all we need to do is develop them!
