Nothing is better than a Self-Portrait to sum-up the different areas of the 2nd semester DISA program: drawing, painting and digital imaging. In this final project, students integrated their studio expertise with a realistic or a fictional Self-Portrait inspired from an artist.
These crazy “movie previews” were a feature at last year’s Friday the 13th End of Year Screening. Designed by Dan Babineau; video editing by Jimmy Hayes.
Are you into Metaphor, Allegory or Anamorphosis? In this project, 2nd semester DISA students “took a dive” into the notion of transformation.
These drawings were done as a final project in the 2nd semester DISA drawing course. The notions of Tattoos and Camouflage were used to give these self-portraits other possible levels of interpretation. This work is now up in the Wayne Remington Gallery (2nd floor of G-block).
These crawling creatures were a first attempt to handle NURBS’ geometry into many possible anatomical features. And the inspiration for the architectural structures was the classic 17th century windmill. From our 3rd semester DISA students using MAYA.
The inspiration for this project was a piece of music chosen by the student. Sound inspired lines, shapes and colors. Students worked with linear paths and bitmap elements in order to interpret rhythm. From our second semester DISA students, created using Photoshop.
There is a long tradition in art history of still-lifes, which are also called ‘Trompe l’oeil‘ in painting and drawing. In this project 3rd semester DISA students had to create a fully rendered, realistic scene which had to include modeling, surface textures and lighting.
Nicolas Rodrigue and Cedric Sarno spray painted this 8 foot by 8 foot image on plywood as part of our open house this past fall. It’s now hanging in one of the school’s hallways.
