 Dear Diary

My second week at NEMISA.....

My second week at NEMISA was a blur. Looking back at my week I feel like it went by really fast. For my second week in Mr. Mark's lesson, we continued the process of shading. He introduced us to the concept of understanding light. We were later introduced to Perspective.  I learned that perspective is a technique for representing three-dimensional space on a flat surface. We also learned about one-point perspective which involves creating a single vanishing point on the horizon line. 

In Ma'am Sibongile's class we were introduced to lines and how lines can be used and are used to convey a message, one's thoughts, or emotions. We were given a task on the spot to draw how we were feeling using only lines and color. We were then asked to present the work we came up with. The process of creating my line drawing was fun and I was really anxious and nervous when it came to the class presentation. We were then given a formal task to draw a concept using lines in representation of a song. 

In Mr. Kagiso's class for film appreciation, we watched The Candyman. It is meant to be a horror movie and horror movies are meant to scare you but the Candyman was not scary at all. Maybe a little. It was a really interesting film.

In Ms.Zelda and Ma'am Tebogo's lesson, we learned about the word Etiquette. Which basically refers to the rules and guidelines that govern polite behavior and social interactions. She then gave us cursive writing to complete.
