COMDCOMD 1231 Figure DrawingNew York City College of TechnologyThe City University of New YorkDepartment of Communication DesignCOMD 1231 - Drawing IICourse DescriptionThis advanced drawing course develops visual awareness of the of the human figure.Sensitivity to line, volume, light and shade is explored. Communication designers use theconcepts developed in this course in disciplines such as advertising, graphic design,illustration, broadcast design, animation and photography.1cl hr, 3 lab hrs, 2 crPrerequisitesCOMD 1103Course ObjectivesINSTRUCTIONAL OBJECTIVESASSESSMENTFor the successful completion of thiscourse, students should be able to:Create a basic contour line drawing of ahuman figure, using skeletal landmarks forproportion.Evaluation methods and criteriaDescribe the basic design concepts as theyapply to drawing.Students will demonstrate competency bytheir execution of basic design techniquesas they relate to a contour line drawingand skeletal proportions.Identify and draw major muscle groups.Students will demonstrate competency bytheir three-dimensional drawings of themajor muscle groups.Students will demonstrate competency bytheir execution of a contour line drawingusing skeletal proportions.110.25.14 LC
COMDCOMD 1231 Figure DrawingCreate shadow patterns in a figure drawing.Students will demonstrate competency bycreating shadow patterns within a figuredrawing.Draw the three dimensions of a figure in aperspective space.Students will demonstrate competency bydrawing a figure in a perspective space.Use the elements of light and shade tocreate three-dimensional figures inperspective space.Students will demonstrate competency byusing light and shade to create a threedimensional figure drawing inperspective.Draw in perspective a figure and objectsusing basic color concepts.Students will demonstrate competencyusing basic color concepts to create athree dimensional figure drawing.Take a test on concepts and vocabulary pluscomplete a portfolio of drawing projects.Students will demonstrate competencythrough the final test on course contentplus presentation a final portfolio.General Education OutcomesGeneral Education Outcome covered:Oral CommunicationSpeaking: The student will demonstratethe ability to articulate himself usingrelevant industry-specific languageOral CommunicationListening: The student will demonstratethe ability to discern pertinent informationfrom irrelevant information.Lifelong LearningThe student will demonstrate an awarenessof resources for continued lifelonglearning.Social InteractionThe student will demonstrate effectiveinterpersonal skills with people from avariety of cultures to seek consensus orresolve conflicts.How the outcome is assessed:Evaluate through class discussion and /orwritten tests if students use appropriatenomenclature to defend creative, criticaland technical decisions in project conceptsand development.Evaluate how well students absorbed andconsequently applied the learning thoughoral critiques of projects.Evaluate through class discussion andwritten tests if students become aware ofresources they can use as referencesthroughout their careers.Assess the ability of the student to developconstructive relationship with classmatesfrom many cultures through classdiscussion.Teaching/Learning Method Lecture and readings210.25.14 LC

Only two absences may beallowed. After two absences, a student may be withdrawn because of unsatisfactoryattendance (code WU). Students arriving after the roll is taken will be marked “late.”Students may be notified at the earliest opportunity in class after they have been absent orlate. After being absent two times or equivalent (2 lateness 1 absence), a student maybe asked to withdraw from the class (code W before the College drop deadline, 4/9/08) ormay be withdrawn from the class (code WU).Academic Integrity StandardsYou are responsible for reading, understanding and abiding by the NYC College ofTechnology Student Handbook, “Student Rights & Responsibilities,” section “AcademicIntegrity Standards.” Academic dishonesty of any type, including cheating and plagiarismis unacceptable. "Cheating" is misrepresenting another student's efforts/work as yourown. "Plagiarism" is the representation of another person's work, words or concepts asyour own.Grading Pencil drawing of a persons proportionsPencil drawing of a shadow patternPencil drawing of a person in perspective spaceMid term testNotebook/sketchbookPencil drawing of major muscle groupsPencil drawing of light and shadePencil drawing in colorTerm 0%10%10%5%10%310.25.14 LC
