week 3: Discovering Impromptu Art

This week we've been studying on creating a offhand drawing. we are learning from the basic, from line to shapes. Creating an art on the spot, at first it was really hard i have to find my model for me before i can create my perfect drawing i always set my mood. And it was difficult for me to do it, sometimes distraction occur, having satisfied in an art which is not good. I thought that i'm the only one who's acting like but i figured out that my classmate feel the same, they have this feeling of insecurity of other drawings that unable them to continue their art. :( 

In my technical drawing i'm having a hard time in the basic, i thought that it will be easy but it's not creating a straight line, right curves then creating something out of a shape. It funny but i have realized while saying it was hard, we can really apply it in our on the spot drawing. Last Thursday we have to make a drawing about in action what is happening in the Gym. I made a man out of circle and box. the way i draw is different from it. i just start on hair then face, but i have to make a position which difficult to make, I used the way our prof. teach and it was effective :)

They define Impromptu art as an A piece composed or played at first thought. it means it can be doodle on your notebook, or something that you see and inspired you. It can be made of pencil and crayons color that can create different art. you don't prepare on creating it most of the artist are like this it's on their mood on how they will made the art.  What can i say art is made by feelings and their meaning is made by the artist the viewer is the one who interprets the artist way of art. 

WEEK 2: THE CLASSICAL ARTS



The Greek Gods and Goddess in this Era and time was the mightiest of all, their power and beauty is above. It was said that in ancient Greece competition is on going between city-state had the best statues and the most beautiful temples, they made perfect statues of people and the columns that were supported a building, were perfectly symmetrical.

Corinthian

Doric

Ionic

Ionic Style - thinner and more elegant. Its capital is decorated with a scroll-like design (a volute). This style was found in eastern Greece and the islands.
Corinthian- Corinthian style is seldom used in the Greek world, but often seen on Roman temples. Its capital is very elaborate and decorated with acanthus leaves.
 Doric- Doric style is rather sturdy and its top (the capital), is plain. This style was used in mainland Greece and the colonies in southern Italy and Sicily-(google).

And because it was dominated by religion it was not surprising that the temples in that time has the most beautiful structure but, Greece didn't last long because the Romans Conquer the Greeks, and as the Greek fall their arts lives, Romans is the visual of of Greece they produced hundred copy of Greece Art. It was the largest empire in the history and  its impressive art reflects this power and the mighty empires reach across the world. Most of the Greek sculptures that exist today are actually Roman replicas of the original.

Colosseum

 

The Colosseum is one of great architecture of the Romans it is composed of arch that pile together it is composed of 80 gigantic arches and 20 ft high. (National Geographic) form into a giant ring around the perimeter it was a symphony of arches that was build for the battle of warrior in that time. we can say that we really adapted this way of creating a building in the Rome. I think this is the influential period of the history we can still see the Ruins today and those technique used to design the stone are still we used today specially in church and museum. i was really amazed on how the roman can go anywhere using their skilled engineer, (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZPTvvmk1jY&feature=related), how they build a bridge to be able to cross on the river and make it in time in invading the German. Leading the greatest warrior Ceasar, the power that influence as all in all. 

it was amazing on how they able to make a structure that still stands today we can say how firm it was and to be able to finish it earlier, materials that they made to be able to create it, it was a magnificent art.

History of Arts

 HISTORY OF ARTS: 2ND SEMESTER

WEEK 1: WHO IS MONA LISA IS SHE A WOMAN?

   Mona Lisa is a famous well know art of Leonardo Da Vinci, inventor, artist, excellent man in renaissance period. And now still known. His Master pieces Mona Lisa (La Gioconda) is a popular art work of the century it became a mystery of who is the girl behind the painting. In 1500 when Leonardo Da Vinci have returned in France., He spent 17 years in Milan, after French army invaded his invention, he got weary of using his brush. It was also from the observation of the priest in France  Father Pretra.(youtube:Monalisa Secret life) And what interest him, in painting again in the late 1503 is when a woman came in his studio to ask him to paint her. This woman that have mentioned is part of the researcher study and what is in the mind of the great artist while making this painting. Other said it was a dream, inspiration of what Da Vinci want to became a suspections of being a Gay. Proves it on how detailed he draw the body structure of a man, but still every question does not end and a limited answer that has no prof. 

 

  Mona Lisa the woman behind the painting that Leonardo created was said to be a House wife in the middle class family. Her name is LISA DEL GIOCONDO. wife of a businessman Florante Fracesco del Giocondo. They say she was pregnant with her second child, when she ask Leonardo to paint her. the speculation came from how she sit and the position of her hands, But being a wife of Francesco is still a question for the ring that symbolized that she is already married is not seen in the artwork.The status that proves of being a middle class classify by the ornament w/c also not found in the Mona Lisa. Behind her hidden smile is said to leonardo mother smile, it was his signature in his artwork the Mother Figure Smile . Mona Lisa is interpreted to be a great psychological photo.

 It Come to my  mind while watching the Documentary of the Da Vinci Life and Works that, can a man make an art without putting any meaning to it? I mean may be we notice something like a code that reveal mystery, just giving them a meaning . Whenever i looked at Mona Lisa painting in the internet the only observation that i can see is a woman w/o an eyebrow unsure smile and wide forehead. The blending of color that was and understanding on how did the artist start the artwork, did he used guidelines in making the face of the model? How about the woman behind it? may be she wanted to be painted by a famous artist. right? May be i don't understand the way an artist is thinking because never tried to make a painting of a human as a model. But as i analyze it in creating a art your attention is on your model you just draw your feelings or what you see, putting a code and a hidden message on your painting is something that you cannot think when you are making an art. The message can only be seen after the painting was finish and sometimes the viewer is the one who interpret the painting that you had made. Make sense right? I think Da Vinci didn't realized that his painting will be famous in the future and carrying for almost 17 years of his travel it may be the greatest Art of his Life.

 

 



WEEK 10: GET OUT OF A BOX!!!


Long Weekends are over wah!! today we had fun watching the play the Juggler the Mermaid and the Bitter it was quite a long day for me we encounter a traffic jam going home and going their, but the thing is we had fun in riding in the jeepney! anyways!!!!

 For now our group are thinking of a new way how to improve our project in Communication Technology, we've been always using Movie Maker in our project and  my objective this semester is to try to create a movie using ADOBE AFTER EFFECT. Last time it was been discussed by Ms. A that we need to create something out of a box which means that to have different idea on that you usually do. I admit that if i don't educate myself or expose myself in learning my own i won't be knowledgeable on this way to create a Visual Project.

How can you create something new from what you usually do? first is try something new like eating a cheese once you always eat cheese you have the tendency to get tired eating it. Once you use already the effect try to avoid repeating using it so that the viewer will have more expectation on your project.
Second is used other resource to improved your work watching other video may help you to create a new idea that will may be used in you project.

Third one is your Timeline of course try to settle all the things on the plan why so that you don't have to re shoot again in the certain place it is time consuming and you'll may not be able to finish your project in TIME.
The forth and last one is Learn From others sometime it may be hard to understand some part on doing your Video but always your are free to ask question and gain feedback from others because this will help you to improve your skill in making a VIDEO CLIP! ^ ^

week 9: All about Blogging



Now a days we are more exposed in internet and more technological devices, in early age we only write our thought, opinion, experience.


 Through the use of pencil and paper sometimes in a typewriter and use touch & go to delete the word that had been time. we can say that beca we ionuse of we are in a new era and generation we used or preferred to used the most easiest way of expressing our idea and it is through Blogging. 

What is Blog? 
it was said that Blog is a place where we express our idea or opinion in a certain  topic (google.com)
as it is define can we really express anything in what we thought through blog? yes we can but we be always need to remember that think before you click it in a small answer or wrong answer it can may influence or hurt others.

Being a Blogger we must not abuse the use of internet to criticize a person, in expressing a idea we must see the other party or the real story before typing a feed backs.
Blogging can bring a good and bad effect to a person. why we can gain information and also used that information to others.

             DAIRY=AUTOGRAPH/SLAM BOOK=SCRAPBOOK=> NOTEBOOK/I TAB

Blog is a dairy in which we allow other or to share others about what happen in the whole day in a certain event where we don't have to paste a picture all we have to do is to upload a photo.

what fun can it bring to us?
   when they give feed backs and read your article, when others seem to be interested in your blog. 

 week 8: New Era, New World    

Good evening! I'm back again it was still raining and because of failure in internet connection i was not able to do my Assignment, RAIN RAIN GO AWAY COME AGAIN another year. >O<

New Era were new devices and OS were made it's advance and more high technology than the past year but, still i wasn't able to catch up last time in Commtech lecture, Our teacher ask how many us are using the latest New media but still there are few who are knowledgeable to use it. What may be the problem? For me i'm having a hard time downloading.

 There are many software that free but most of it were Trial Version only. You may ask instead of buying a software we prefer to use a pirated or Downloaded is because it is updating which you will need to buy another one to be updated again. and it cost a lot. we can't change the fact we are being practical, Yes you may say it is not in other way but to those people who can't afford but are i need and want to use it, i can say that the easiest way. 

 I just realized that taking up Multimedia, I.t, C.S or these courses although you already finish your college course still we are oblige to continue learning. The new more advance technology we had the more we are eager or challenge to learn. It will be our advantage if we'll be able to learn those things that are new from other.
