| Course contents : | The architectural perspective:
- Aspect, the board, the horizon, vanishing points, convergence lines.
Building perspective with one or two vanishing points.
- The intersection of plans, shadow lines in perspective.
|
|
| Course objective : | To understand perspective and practice it through drawing.
To develop vision in space and its understanding. |
|
| Prerequisites : | Descriptive 1 course (first year of the Baccalaureat)
Sketching and drawing class in the 1st Baccalaureat. |
|
| Organization : | Practical work will be given during four hour workshops every two weeks.
- A short introductory presentation will highlight the difficulties of the exercise, as well as the rules required to tackle it.
Students will use the remaining time to start the exercise.
The exercise will be completed at home and returned at the start of the next workshop (unless otherwise indicated).
For these workshops, drawing material is required, which will be specified at the start of the year. It is vital that students have this material with them at each workshop.
Drawings are carefully and precisely drawn by hand, using instruments.
The use of IT tools is not allowed. |
|
| Written notes : |
- A syllabus bringing together the various graphic classes in the three years of the Baccalaureat. It outlines the main principles as well as giving examples of perspective.
- The following book is recommended to complete this overview (idem Bac 1):
Frank CHING, Design Drawing, Van Nostrand Reinhold, New York, USA, 1998.
- Specific concepts will be set out during presentations at the start of the year.
|
|
| Assessment : | The exercises will be corrected by the teachers and given back to students, as a rule during the following session.
- They will be graded according to the European grading system (letters).
- Students who wish to improve their grade can retake the exercise:
- They have two weeks to redo the exercise and resubmit it.
- The better grade from the two submissions will be retained.
- Work from the first term cannot be resubmitted in the second term.
- Work which is not submitted by the deadlines given cannot be resubmitted, other than with a valid reason (such work is graded as "zero").
Presence in the workshops is compulsory.
Assessment is organised at the end of each term (two in total).
Students can obtain an exemption from the exam under the following conditions:
- To be up to date with all work during the year: to have returned everything in time, with a sufficient average grade;
- To have obtained at least 13/20 in total for the two assessments, or at least 14/20 in the second assessment;
- The grade for the exemption (adding the two assessments or the result of the second assessment if it is higher than 14/20) becomes the final grade for the year.
