COLLABORATIVE PROJECT – RTB*
Students should note that this is a sample assignment. Instructors may alter its contents, and referring to the materials given directly by the instructor will always be the most accurate.
OBJECTIVES
- Gain experience working collaboratively.
- Practice developing our own content informed by appropriate imagery.
- Build vocabulary (principles and elements of design) through critique.
THE ASSIGNMENT
Working in teams you will create a piece of artwork for Rock the Ball, our annual Art and Design Department open-house and art party. After the teams are established (usually three to four students) you will pick three prompts out hats organized in three categories. The prompt categories are: an aspect of the semester’s theme, a guide in your formal choices, and a guide for your art making process.
