Greek Mask

Mask Reflection

 

The thing that went well was making the eyebrows by making them 3D and making the exaggerated smile huge and wide.

The part that didn't really work was trying to make it into a more natural mask because my mask before that was just red.

I could improve by first getting a white mask so it would be way easier for me to decorate it into a Greek mask.

 

 



Oedipus Video (Chariot Scene

Oedipus (Chariot Scene)

I thought is fun was re-inacting this this scene when Oedipus killed his father in this chariot scene.

This was easy because when we learned about the the story of Oedipus we all understood the 

Scene we were assigned with well, therefore it wasnt hard for us to take a video and act out this part

in the story.

Mixcraft Hunters Theme & Reflection

Reflection

It was relatively easy to do the  hunters theme because we already knew how to do it because 

we did the peter's theme and wolfs theme and all we had to do was follow the same steps we used before to help us with the peter's theme. At the beginning we found it hard to find the video that had no audio but when we asked for help from Isabella, she managed to help us figure things out

Wolfs Theme Mixcraft & Reflection

Reflection 

It was relatively easy to do the wolf's theme because we already knew how to do it because 

we did the peter's theme and all we had to do was follow the same steps we used before to help us with the peter's theme. At the beginning we found it hard to find the video that had no audio but when we asked for help from Bhavya he managed to help us figure things out.

Peters Mixcraft

                   

This was pretty easy because i followed my stupids guide to mixcraft pretty well.

Miss also demonstrated to us how to mixcraft and upload, speed up, slow down and cut off your video. We found the video but without the music then we recorded our self doing the peters theme

then it took us about 4 tries to get it right and eventually we did it properly. after that we speed it up and also slower it. till the video and the music matched. after that we chose the instrument we had to 

use for the music which made the piano sound like a different instrument. after the video was complete we then had to go online and convert the video onto a wmv. then we were meant to post this on our blogs.

Reflection On Last Class

My Class Reflection  

In my last music class, we learnt the different notes in music for example like Semibreves, Minims, Crochets, Quavers and semi Quavers. We learnt how to play those notes on the piano and the wrong ways to use them. We also played a game called "Don't clap this beat back" where there was this particular beat we weren't supposed to clap whenever Mrs. Cross clapped that beat, we were only meant to clap the beat that didn't sound like that. I don't think I did so well in that game but it was my first time so I will try to do better next time.

MYP Identity Through Music

My name is Karan and i am in year 7AA, This is my MYP Arts Process Journal. On this blog you will find documented evidence of my learning through the Arts|Drama|Music. This term I am starting my learning journey in Music. My strongest Arts subject is Drama and i want to develop my skills in Art and Music.

Key Concept: Communication & Identity

Related Concept: Expression

Global Context: Identities & relationships; Personal & Cultural Expression

Statement of Inquiry: The process of artistic creation can lead to self-discovery.

Inquiry Questions: (Factual) What elements can be identified as specific to a characteristic/personality? (Conceptual) To what extent does the identity of the artist impact on the artwork? (Debatable) Is everyone an artist? Can I represent myself through music? How do different cultures represent themselves through music?
