PRDE 1710 - Fundamentals of Clay Modeling Credit Hours: 4.00 Prerequisites: PRDE 1010 and MACA 1040; or Consent of advisor
This class will introduce students to clay modeling concepts, terms, and basic skills as it pertains to industry standards and techniques.
Location: South Campus
Contact Hours: 6 Billable Contact Hours: 6 OUTCOMES AND OBJECTIVES Outcome 1: Upon completion of this course, students will demonstrate surfacing techniques in clay modeling.
Objectives: Using the surfacing techniques in clay modeling the learner will:
- Develop a high quality surface in the given time.
- Build a model with the techniques given in the time allowed.
- Identify the difference between poor and high quality surface in the time allowed.
Outcome 2: Upon completion of this course, students will capture 2D to 3D relationship in clay modeling.
Objectives: Using the 2D to 3D relationship in clay modeling the learner will:
- Identify sections in the time given.
- Build an armature in the given time allowed.
- Build a 3D model from a 2D drawing in the time allowed.
Outcome 3: Upon completion of this course, students will build and effectively use clay modeling tools.
Objectives: Identifying the industry tools, the learner will:
- Identify proper tools in the given time.
- Build a basic set of tools in the time allowed.
- Demonstrate proper technique of tools in the time given.
Outcome 4: Upon completion of this course, students will demonstrate symmetry in clay modeling.
Objectives: Using symmetry in clay modeling the learner will:
- Demonstrate dragging tools to mirror in the time allowed.
- Identify cross sections templates from 2D drawings in the given time.
- Develop a symmetrical model in the time given.
Outcome 5: Upon completion of this course, students demonstrate scale in clay modeling.
Objectives: Demonstrating scale in clay modeling the learner will:
- Demonstrate an ability to visualize a scale model
- Identify the proper measurements and techniques to create a scale model
- Develop accurate size and proportioning in a scale model
Outcome 6: Upon completion of this course, students will demonstrate line quality in clay modeling.
Objectives: Demonstrating line quality in clay modeling the learner will:
