Year 10 Drawing and Sculpture

by Mercedes Docanto, Year 10

This term in Drawing and Sculpture we applied our drawing skills and undertook a mash-up drawing challenge. We researched two different artworks from the National Gallery of Victoria and designed and composed a new artwork  incorporating elements from both artworks which included our own creative spin. This mash-up drawing was a challenge and tested our artistic skills.  It was a fun and engaging challenge.

This term in drawing and sculpture I have had an amazing time, We started off by doing our reclaimed sculpture task but could not start making them due to lockdown, Instead we went on with our drawing task, We ended up designing and making a mash up drawing.  I very much enjoyed this task because I got to be creative and have some fun with it. 

Visual Communication Design 

Design Elements and Principals

For Unit 1, Outcome 2, the talented Year 11 VCD students studied the 16 design elements and principles. They experimented with the elements and principles, using manual and digital drawing methods to visualise ideas and develop concepts to answer a Brief. The Brief required the students to design a set of four promotional postcards for the ‘Fitzroy Nursery’. The postcards were to promote the opening of a new fruit and vegetable section for the nursery. The students used the design process and the software Adobe Illustrator to complete their final presentations.

Film and Photography

During Lockdown #6 for the Year 10 elective, Photography and Film, students made a 60 sec short film on the theme, Chasing Happiness. With a few constraints of no speech, but a soundtrack and a variety of camera angles were to be included. Students made creative and humorous clips using their smartphone to film and iMovie to edit their short film.
