Monday's Critique

Group critiques for the series drawings will be very different than the ones for specified assignments or out-of-class projects that result in singular expressions.  Because each of you are working on unique ideas, each of you will essentially be presenting your series-in-progress to the rest of the group and filling everyone in on what you're doing.  However, we will be participating in a more constructive dialogue with the 300 and 400 level students.  It is a good idea to be prepared to talk about your ideas, how your series has already progressed or changed, and what you think the next step may be. I posted a few questions a few days ago for you to consider and that may be helpful in getting to a place to discuss confidently.  Here are a few more to consider:

From the response of others during our critique, are people seeing what was intended, or are you seeing one thing while everyone else sees another?

Can you resist pressure to be pushed in a direction you are not interested in, but remain open to other's ideas at the same time?

When you listen to constructive criticism, can you listen without feeling defensive?

See you Monday.
