WEEK 8 & 9

Wednesday 25th November

Today was a busy day of prop making. In the morning I was assigned a task with a classmate to make a melted snowman. We came up with a really effective and simple idea. We headed to the art room to plan and measure how big we wanted it. We decided to use foam and mod roc to build the layers up. This was a fun process however the mod roc took a while but the end result was worth it. Once my class mate and I were happy with the melted snowman we painted it white. I then made a carrot nose and two coal eyes using foam and mod roc, then painted each.

In the afternoon I helped some class mates who were in charge of props to collect a large list of props for the level 2 show. This was challenging because there was many props on the list that needed to me made. For example we didn't have 'rose petals' so using old red fabric, we cut out some petal shapes.

After this, I made some mask bags for our class charity idea. I was shown how to make them and I found the process really complicated at first. Using the sewing machine is not one of my strong points so I struggled, however I managed to complete one bag. I could definitely use with some practise.

Thursday 26th November

Today I was absent as I had hardly slept due to a horrible migraine, I had completed all my college work so I wasn't behind on anything. I attempted to go onto my laptop to see if there was anything I could complete but I was in a lot of pain.

Target:

As we are online again next week, my target is to complete all my online tasks and plan and carry out a practical task.
