Character-YOU
So for this assignment we will be illustrating YOU as a character!
Remember to have some FUN with this! These will tie into your next project, so be creative!
-
Everyday You - Some might call this the 'Ordinary You' - though I doubt you are very ordinary
-
Sleepy You - If you didn't have to be awake & alert for class, what might the cozy, comfy probably the sleepier version of you look like?
-
Superhero You - If you were your very own imagined superhero, what would you look like?
-
Time Period You - If you were from the any time period gone by, from the long, long ago or from the more recent past - what would you look like? Remember we want to 'know' the time period or era so a prop in your illustration or photograph might be helpful.
-
Opposite of You - What does your opposite look like? It could be your imagined protagonist or enemy of your own personality. For example if your a quiet, reserved, good student; what do you think the visual of your opposite might look like?
-
Future You - What does the professional you in the future look like? Are you in a suit? Maybe a tie? What equipment or prop(s) might you use?
Remember, you may NOT directly copyright someone else's character! If you want to be Rapunzel, it may not look like the Disney version! No copyright infringement!! We also need to be able to tell it's you! Do you always wear glasses, your hair a certain way or a NASA shirt everyday? Then your character-you should too!
- On Teams make sure you upload your photos into the correct assignment!
- Be very careful you not uploading into the wrong one!
