Aftermath

Full Faculty was this past Friday and six of the students were to present their work in front of the teachers, each student had a 20 minute time slot. This full faculty critique was the most casual one I have been a part of, which I kind of liked and kind of disliked. I am a fan of order and consistency and there were a few things that were disorganized throughout the critique. If a professor is going to attend these critiques then they should be fully present for the whole event, rather this go around some were hoping in and out of critiques, random people were in attendance and it just kind of threw me off my game. I kept noticing people walking in and out rather than focusing on the artwork and really being present. During my own critique I was talking and all of a sudden 5 new people just walk right in the discussion, messes up the flow I felt, repeating questions I had already tried to answer. One of my professors really didn't seem to enjoy how the critique went as well, both from how the professors asked questions to how the students responded to those questions. This week he has given us some really in depth assignments to research on and help us prepare for the next one.
