Location: 601 Prince Street
Time: We will begin at 7:30 and finish by 10:30.
Prints: All drawings assigned thus far (except animations, which only Mandi will have at this point) should be printed and pinned up. The short edge (minimum dimension) of prints should be at least 24″. (For Intermediate Assignment 03: Storyboard, all of the storyboard frames should be arranged and printed on a single sheet of paper, as described in the assignment.)
Schedule: Each student will have at most five minutes to present, allowing a minimum of ten minutes of comments. To ensure that we finish on time, each group should be fully pinned-up at the start of the scheduled pin-up time (e.g. Group 1 should be fully pinned-up at 7:30).

Notes:
1. I recommend carefully reviewing the instructions for each assignment to make sure you are producing drawings which meet the requirements of the assignments. Your grades will depend on doing so. If you have any questions or are uncertain about what a part of the instructions means, email me. The assignment instructions are:
Basic:
01 Detail Plan
02 Section-Elevation
03 Perspective
Intermediate:
01 Network Plan
02 Axonometric
03 Storyboard
2. In general, I will be looking for drawings that are:
+ Beautiful
+ Creative
+ Selective and judicious in deploying color, texture, and lineweight to emphasize important aspects of the landscape being depicted.
+ Clearly annotated — particularly in drawings such as perspective and storyboard where annotation is often not used.
3. For intermediates, given that we have focused in class thus far primarily on working in Rhino and 3ds Max, it is particularly important that you not only output renders from 3ds Max, but also overlay those renders with additional information in Adobe CS to produce finished drawings.
4. After Thursday, you will need to submit your work to me digitally by placing it on the server. (We’ll go over the location for this when we meet Thursday.) Once I have your work, I will give you interim grades and feedback on the drawings. You will have the opportunity to revise your drawings based on the comments you receive at the midterm and the feedback I give you. (Final drawing submissions will be after the final review.)
