What They Mean When the Words "Creative Process" Join the Convo

Absolutely nothing, genuinely the most largest biggest load of shite that was just the invention of new words for something you already do to really drive home that fact that you're the biggest dummy dumb dumb they have ever met.

"So y/n, tell me about your creative process in this piece"

Don't panic, heres what you can mention in this instance:

  • How did you feel while you produced this piece?
  • What were the steps to get you ready to actually start the work?
  • Did you take pictures???? trick question, if you didn't take pictures ur done, ur over, u failed, ur gonna be lost, shamed, hated, and actually murdered in your sleep. 
TAKE PICTURES!!!!!! OF EVERYTHING!!!!! ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS!!!!! 

did you change anything about the work?  TAKE A PHOTO OR 6

Now... would i say you need to get a whole $75 external hard drive that you will definitely lose and never upload stuff to??? no. not at all. 

but consider an album in your camera roll that can be filled with all photos for progress and process (basically the same thing in the teachers eyes)

When in doubt, just start talking, you can get so far with half truths and bullshit :D

Everything that isn't a published article, journal, or peer-reviewed paper is stricken from the record and you are left with exclusively relatively reliable sources. Public Library This one is kind of a no-brainer. If you live near a public library, go there and check the arts section and history sections, or search their database and see if they have anything available that you can order in. They also usually have links to videos and physical copies of DVDs (you'd need a DVD player obviously) that might be useful. And, if you ask nicely, they might even have an archive section that might include some out-of-print books,

How To: Critique

 Critique is so much easier than people make it out to, at least on the level that were currently working. think of the shit sandwich format: - something nice - ur honest slightly watered down opinion - and finish it with something else nice that involves the phrase "you could consider adding/changing" or something along those lines.  some key words to avoid to make yourself sound smarter: cool good nice "it really pops" interesting consider using: "the ___ really makes the ___ push forward" comment on the basics: composition line value colour pallet negative space depth style theme technique tone "I appreciate" "I wonder" "I am interested in ___" example: "I really appreciate the use of simple line and value in this piece. I think the eye really adds a more grotesque theme to the work that I would love to know more about.  I think that this work could be maybe a little more diverse in its use of tone, maybe having some m
