Day 101: tue, 22 apr 2014. This morning: I melt down an ingot of old silver with help from my teacher. After that: I enjoy warm weather on the Grass Skirt patio for a split second this afternoon.
What I did this week (20 sep 2013)
- Started the week with Jewelry; watched a demo on investing; mixed plaster. Celebrated the day by wearing fun pants.
- Watched classmates pitch campaign strategies all afternoon in tuesday’s Senior Ad class. Mohr gave us six minutes each but everybody went overtime and we accomplished very little.
- Had a nice lunch with Amanda wednesday, then went to History of Cinema and watched Bicycle Thieves, an emotionally-manipulative Italian film from 1948.
- Had my first experience casting metal on thursday morning in Jewelry. We were forced to wear gross, heavy leather things, but ended up with some cool stuff.
- Walked to El Arepazo for thursday lunch with friend/former OhioHealth boss/brand-new CCAD teacher Josh Bodman.
- Sat through more presentations in Senior Ad, then finished thursday with a three-hour logo-roughs critique in Portfolio. Lots of standing up, trying not keep my legs from falling asleep, making faces at friends across the table, and post-rationalizing other people’s ideas. Also: yelling.
- Worked in class friday morning with Jason and Alix. We’ve got a big presentation in a week’s time.
Day 15: thu, 19 sep 2013. Can’t pick just one snapshot. Above: Jewelry class on our first day of casting, wearing face shields and stinky leathers. Below: In Portfolio, I am a narwhal.
