Give each group one of the objects listed above. Have paper and colored pencils available. Instruct students to begin roughly drawing the object on their paper. Tell them to include more detail than they had in their thumbnail sketches such as a visible texture, more defined shape, and color. Explain that the drawing does not need to be, by any means, an exact replica. Allow students about ten minutes to work on these drawings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Instruction<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Step 1: Transition \u2013 Have students discuss the difficulties they encountered when drawing a representation of their object. Have them also discuss what went well and what was easy for them.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Step 2: Instruction \u2013 Explain that \u201cdrawing and rendering are the primary visual-communication methods used by theatrical designers. Every designer must be able to draw and render with ease and facility.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>1. Lines must represent the qualities of the materials they represent<br \/> 2. You should be familiar with the physical characteristics of the materials you\u2019re drawing<br \/> 3. You must know what you\u2019re drawing before you can draw it<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Remember, a rendering does not need to create a photographic likeness. It is a simplified view and differs from the thumbnail sketch in that it is more detailed and in color. It portrays the colors, textures, shapes and styles that give your design that evocative nature of the design concept.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Step 3: Modeling \u2013 Display the colored renderings for the class. As a class, discuss the qualities of the renderings that students should seek to model. Explain that the only requirement for students\u2019 renderings is that, again, they be an accurate representation of the mood and spirit of the students\u2019 design concept for their scene.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Step 4: Guided Practice \u2013 Allow students the remaining class time to begin working on their colored renderings of their scenic designs. Be sure to pass back their thumbnail sketches so they have that original idea to go off of.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4><strong>Assessment<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>In two days, students will turn in their finished, colorful rendering.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Objective From their thumbnail sketches, students will create a more complete, colorful rendering of their set design.
