Radio Roseland

I spent the morning working in the Radio Roseland studio. I learnt the general running of the station and how students learn how to run the station for themselves. I was given a tutorial on how to produce a sweeper or jingle to advertise the radio station, I have attached a copy of this to my subject knowledge audit CD.

These are examples of students exam work for the Art GCSE Key stage 4. I was involved in assisting some students with special requirements, and in the planning and developing of concepts and ideas prior to the students exam.

  

 

These are some examples of the work that i have 

been doing with Yr 8 Key stage 3 Art students. 

We have been studying aboriginal art, techniques 

and artists and students designed and created their 

own pieces of aboriginal art using similar techniques, 

colours and tools, such as withies and ash twigs to 

paint with. 

  

Examples of some year 7 Key stage 3, ceramic work that i have been helping with at school, this has really enabled me to learn about the medium and I am now confident taking these lessons myself and I have been extending my own knowledge of the subject and reading the complete potters guide and developing other techniques and processes to further my knowledge.

Sculpture & Carving

This is a wood carving of a face created as part of a project on masks for an evening art class. The mask was carved from a piece of oak and i had to use a chisel and a hammer to shape the main features of the face as the wood was so hard. Finer detail and finishing was created by scrapping the wood away with the chisel and also using sand paper to smooth areas.

GREEN SCREEN

We had a green screening workshop and worked with some students to create a science project. We recorded students performing their research in front of the green screen and then we added images to the green screen using the adobe program that matched the aspects of the students topics .

We were then able to try the technique ourselves and we choose to read a story. We set up the equipment and took turns to read sections of the story while filming in front of the green screen. We then added images from the story book at appropriate sections of the story .

Unfortunately we were limited in time and we were not able to complete all of the filming and editing so it is a basic version of the finished product. Given more time we would have edited the film properly and cut our all of our talking inbetween takes and spent more time getting the lighting and shooting perfect.

Still life paintings

These are still life paintings. The pictures were made using acrylic paints and brushes and layering of the colours over a period of time to help give the subject more depth and texture.
