Before tomorrow you need to look at
the work of 2 fashion illustrators, here are a few good links to explore:

Try to choose illustrators that have
contrasting approaches and use different media. For each selected illustrator
print out 3/4 reproductions of their work at a reasonable size (A5ish).
You then need to provide some analysis
of each illustrator. Find out what you can about them - where they trained, who
they have worked for. Most importantly analyse the images you have chosen,
identify what media have been used and discuss technique (expressive or
controlled?), composition, use of colour. Give your personal opinion on the
work, but ensure you give reasons for the views you express.
Present the work thoughtfully (2 A3
pages per illustrator), think about layout and text/titles etc.
Tomorrow you will be doing some quick
drawings of the figure and taking photos to develop your illustrator
responses from. We will be needing people to pose for both drawings and photos,
look at Fashion advertising/ location shoots to give you ideas about dynamic
posture.
From the photos you take you will be
selecting 2 of the best and producing 4 of your own illustrations (2 in the
style of each of your selected illustrators) from the poses found in your
chosen photos.
Following on from this we will be
developing some original illustrations of our own next week and using these as
a vehicle to develop and present your design proposals.
TOMORROW:
BRING CAMERAS and DRAWING
MATERIALS (pencils, erasers).
