Nathan Fowkes "Designing With Color and Light" Weeks 3 and 4 dump

Just an update on the class. Every Wednesday at midnight PST we get a lecture (about an hour ish long), an assignment that is due the following Thursday by midnight PST, and by Sunday (depending on if you turned in your assignment on time) we get a ~15 minute long video critique; the entire course is 9 weeks long. So far, every critique I've gotten Mr Fowkes has been tearing me a new asshole. Which is awesome, since I end up learning a lot more from said tearing than I do in the lectures. When we turn in our assignments, we rate ourselves out of 5 stars and have a section where we have any comments and additional questions for him. We also get access to previous and current students critiques to see what we are up against and let me say I am completely humbled and am reminded that I am just borderline average, maybe even below that. He has said that he is not an easy grader because this is how the industry is and I am sure all of his students appreciate that.

I'm a little hesitant as to showing my assignments since they suck but its all about progress right?? Here we go..

Week 3, my worst week ever.


The assignment was to create five different color keys using interesting color combinations and lighting. I was supposed to play with different values and lighting also, not only the blasted colors. Bahhhh  And also I don't know how to perspective. Time to brush up on some fundamentals.. 

Week 4, hopefully he sees that I'm learning and stuff. D: 


The assignment is similar to week 3, but this time we are to target certain emotions through light and color.
