Hybrid Creature Design

This is a 6 week unit on the design and creation of a hybrid creature which is broken down into 2 projects. Firstly, an encyclopaedia poster which showcases a collage with information. Secondly, an illustration which encompasses atmospheric perspective using watercolour techniques and processes. You can collaborate with the English department who can develop creative writing skills - PowerPoint included or it can be used within art class alone. Students also get exposed to our key artist - Stephanie Simpson, and use her work as inspiration for theirs. Various design skills are also explored such as typography, composition and layout. The resource give options for low, middle and high ability students and includes quality photo’s student examples. It also contains a marking scheme that is simple and easy to use for EAL students.
