Midterm Topics: Cooking and Drawing

Our midterm will cover the two short video series we have watched.

The 1st series, with Leah Schaefer, was for cooking potstickers [the name is wrong: they should be called "ravioli"] (the complete series is here)

The 2nd series was for drawing, with Paul Louis (the complete series with transcripts is here)

Something Left, Something Taken

After the midterm, we will be watching this lovely animation (you can watch it here first).

Something Left, Something Taken was made by Max Porter and Ru Kuwahata, a husband and wife team. Go here to see how they made the movie. This beautiful short film took them two years to finish!

Drawing Vocabulary

For our English drawing lessons, we need three kinds of words: Art Words, Verbs, and Parts of the Body. Here are three tables to help you. Remember that some words are more important and useful than others. Don't waste time and energy. Learn more common words first!
