IL 1200 - Freshman Drawing Portfolio Review for Illustrators Credits: 3 Course Type: Portfolio Review
The Illustration Department has a unique drawing portfolio requirement for first-year Illustration students. This course helps each student to submit a drawing portfolio that demonstrates their technical control and drawing ability. This portfolio is composed of a sketchbook and a handful of drawings, that may include still-life renderings, figure drawings, and/or perspective drawings. Upon successful completion of this course, students will submit a quality portfolio that showcases their personal practice of sketching, the ability to depict basic forms with accurate light/shadow within a composition, the ability to depict accurate human proportions, and an accurate sense of depth and objects in perspective.
Prerequisites: FD 1370 - Life Drawing I and IL 1510 - Perspective
