[P] Week

Periphery

It is the external boundaries of a surface.  With the portal project we did we had to work with the boundaries of other objects on the wall and by not going into the boundaries of other portals.

Portfolio

A portfolio is a collection of all the work we do in a well-organized carrying case.  In is a good way of storing work that you will need later on.  If you are going to an interview for a job, it allows the employer to see the employee’s ability to complete certain tasks.  It should also be in order and have things labeled.  



Process

This is a continual action of work that allows progression to happen in a forward motion.  The process of something is a well-organized plan that one goes through to get to a certain point or place.  The process we did starting with reading a fairy tale then ending at building a portal took careful planning and thinking.  The different projects we made and designed in between were part of the process of getting to how the design our portals.





Perspective

It is the angle in which you view an object and the depth of an object.  Last semester we worked with perspective a lot and learning to see things with depth.   We drew four perspective drawings.  I did an interior one point, an exterior one point, an exterior two point and a one point looking above something.




Professional

For something to look professional it needs to be well crafted and well presented.  When mounting images on a board there shouldn’t be any awkward spaces and the proximity of images should be thought out carefully.  If words are needed on a board then the architectural lettering should be very neat and readable.  Also, using guidelines will help.  This week our groups for the building projects were to put all our images on a board.  My group carefully thought about the background color, the size of each image, and the placement of the images.
