Visual Arts Workshop

These are some potential ideas I am working on for the visual arts workshop. 

Engage students in discussion about distractions in terms of visual imagery. Ex) Television, cinema, advertisements, etc. 

How do these visual images distract us? How are they designed to distract us? 

What kind of messages are being delivered to us through these images? Are these messages potentially negative or positive? 

How are camera's used as a means of communication? Explore ways in which the digital video camera can be used to deliver a message. Explore methods that are used to change, manipulate, or grow the messages being delivered in the images. 

Students will potentially create visual works through digital means that deliver messages that are potentially tied to their identity, or culture.
