World Sketch Day 2016

Introduction

What is a skechting?

A sketch is a rapidly executed freehand drawing that is not usually intended as a finished work.A sketch may serve a number of purposes: it might record something that the artist sees, it might record or develop an idea for later use or it might be used as a quick way of graphically demonstrating an image, idea or principle.

What you need to do?

Sketching is generally a prescribed part of the studies of art students.This generally includes making sketches (croquis) from a live model whose pose changes every few minutes. A "sketch" usually implies a quick and loosely drawn work, while related terms such as study, modello and "preparatory drawing" usually refer to more finished and careful works to be used as a basis for a final work, often in a different medium, but the distinction is imprecise.

How’s this going to help?

All students have to be creative in order to capture the real view into their lens and portray through their art and talent.

Task

Each team/Indiviual will work as a team for the sketch competition. You all will be working on one similar situation and will make a creative video on it through mutual ideas. At the end each team/Indiviual will showcase their talent on the Sketch Day 2016, 15th JULY
