Crit

Mid Semester Crit

The mid semester crit where we showcase all of our work that we've done throughout the semester.

My crit went really well and I had also learned a lot from other people's crits.

Important Points:
Model can be used for more - drawings

Thinking about different axis's, don't restrict yourself to flat architecture, think about vertical

Doing exact model and drawing could be profitable because usually model changes the original drawing idea if you can't control it.

Always question your work, ask why you did these things and how you could make it better (putting it upside down)

Naming your work usually represents what it is.

Combine different models to create a new one (section models combining them)

Do a lot of diagrams as it is the best way to convey your work.

Collage in real life - cutting out real people from magazines

Don't let project constrain you - square model controls the way you think as cylinder and triangles break away from their form.

GIF your work - taking a photo of the work every hour and turn it into a GIF to see the process

Freeform - making a lot of models first then coming up with ideas after'

Photocopy models or scan models

Find holes in brief to exploit

Should I continue to try to adapt to new ways to approach things? Or should I stick to the way I do things - precise, thought through, clean and specific.
