The course will enable the students to observe, analyze, and interpret live models' busts into sculptures using a permanent medium. Construct portraits with a three-dimensional understanding of each individual feature. Replicate the exact features of the live model to create identical portraits that capture the model's unique character. Learn to measure facial details with precision and reinterpret them in 3D.

Live Portrait Study (Practical)
|
CO34: Make a layout of a model, using their skills to observe and analyze the model's features. This helps them understand armature construction and create the model in 3D.
CO35: Create a portfolio by replicating live models in clay to master facial anatomy. Adapt to mold making and casting busts into permanent mediums for market-ready portraits. Experiment with various facial features to become proficient with different face types.
CO36: Develop skills to accurately portray faces, focusing on proportion, expression, and resemblance. Gain a deeper understanding of individual features, such as eyes, nose, and lips, in relation to the model. CO37: Justify given submissions of portraits by prioritizing character and validating essential elements such as proportion, balance, expression, and resemblance.
CO38: Contribute effectively in course-specific interaction. |
