Year 8 Illustration
Year 8 Illustration is an elective course and we had 3 classes in 2020. They were highly creative students who responded really well to a broad range of tasks and variety of media.
Students in Year 8 Illustration engage in a range of drawing and animation techniques to develop technical skill and build confidence in their ability. They are encouraged to use their imagination to illustrate a range of ideas in different media including the following examples: caricatures of themselves, their pets and famous people; an imaginative response to a passage from a story etched on black scratch paper; collaged illustrations based on a well-known limerick; and rotoscoped animations based on moving figures.
