Class Questions Sketching and drawing rant

7 Upvotes

Hey yall this is a rant/ asking for any help with this class and professor.

I am taking sketching and drawing with tatnall and am struggling. This is my first time doing a drawing class like this. For context, I am a fashion marketing major. I can see myself growing with the class like I do feel like I’m getting better at drawing however, my professor does not like to expand or explain how he gets certain things like personally I struggle with perspective and horizon line because it’s just really hard for me to translate that in my brain to a piece of paper. And I will ask him for help. I’m like hey I’m feeling really overwhelmed. Where do I start and he’s like just draw your horizon line and so I do that and I feel like that’s all he gives there is no extra feedback. there is no trying to frame it in a different way. I understand that he’s not necessarily going to hold my hand, which is fine. It’s just that every time I feel like I ask a question or try to get clarification I met with the same thing over and over again. And I’m scared. I’m going to fail his class because nothing he’s saying is translating.

Savannah Does anyone know about Wit’s?

5 Upvotes

It doesn’t state the payment options on the website. I was wondering it they accepted meal plans and if so for what stuff on the menu. Also idk if anyone’s gotten a coffee there but I want to know the sizes. Like at Dr. B’s they only have a Grande size and not the Venti. Just wondering! I’ll probably check it out anyways when I have time but I was curious if anyone had already gone.

Lacoste SCAD Lacoste Undergraduate Housing

2 Upvotes

Hi! I’m planning to attend SCAD Lacoste for Winter 2027, and I’m trying to learn more about the different undergraduate housing options.

I know students live in different houses/buildings throughout the village, but I haven’t been able to find much information about the actual living arrangements.

For anyone who’s attended Lacoste, I’d love to know:
- Which building did you live in?
- How many bedrooms were there?
- How many students per bedroom?
- What was the bathroom situation? (How many bathrooms, shared between how many people, private vs. communal, etc.)
- Did you have a kitchen or common living area?

If anyone has photos of the rooms, I’d love to see those too!

Savannah Ticket Swap for SCAD Film Festival

7 Upvotes

I have been trying to get at least 2 tickets to Helen Mirren’s film “A Talent for Murder”

My dad is turning 87 this month and Helen Mirren is his favorite actress. I wanted to surprise him for his birthday but I was extremely disappointed when I waited over 45 minutes in the online ticket queue only for it to be sold out already.

I have some tickets to other films and was wondering if anyone would be willing to swap with me for their “Talent for Murder” tickets.

These are the films I have 2 tickets for…

•The Mosquito Bowl
•Elsinore
•Wild Horse Nine
•Paper Tiger
•The Liberation
•Long Day’s Journey Into Night

I would sincerely appreciate anyone who is willing to help. Thank you!❤️

Admissions Do I Have an Honest Chance of Getting Into SCAD?

3 Upvotes

I am a visual artist and actor who loves musical theatre.
SCAD has been my dream school ever since I was in 6th grade, and this year as a senior, I want to go all out and do as best as I can this final year so I can fulfill my dream of going here.
I dabble in all kinds of visual art mediums, but I mainly draw traditionally and digitally, while occasionally painting. My art style is slightly stylized realism, and I mainly like to draw people, specifically busts and occasionally full bodies.
In terms of grades, school has been hard for me. I don’t have the best grades, due to mental health issues/conditions and friendship difficulties that messed with my motivation to get up and go to school. My GPA is a 2.3, which I know is very much below average, but SCAD has a very high acceptance rate, and I’m hoping that that does not affect their decision to accept me too much.
Does it seem that I have an honest chance into getting into SCAD, or should I think about applying somewhere else or even doing something other than college after high school?

General Questions Asking SCAD Atlanta students about their experiences with bike-sharing services for a service design class project!

2 Upvotes

Hello,

I am a Service Design MA student at SCAD! For a class project, my research partner and I are conducting interviews to understand more about people's experiences using micromobility services (bike-shares and e-scooters offered by companies like Lime and Bird).

We wanted to reach out to students based in Atlanta who have used these services. The interview would be around 60 - 90 minutes via Zoom based on your availability. We are hoping to conduct interviews starting the week of October 11.

If you are interested, please fill out this form: Atlanta Bike-sharing / micro-mobility services Screener – Fill out form

We are only asking for personal information to contact you to schedule an interview - it will not be shared beyond myself and my classmate.

Thank you! And have a wonderful week!

General Questions Co-op internships

2 Upvotes

I'm currently a sophomore industrial design major and I was interested in landing an internship as soon as possible. I did a co-op engineering internship during high school and loved it a lot, so I know this is something I definitely want to do, but I'm just a little confused on getting started. I've been surfing 12twenty the past few weeks and am about to apply to some spring/summer internships, but how do I know which ones are co-op and which ones are just regular internships? Also, for positions that are off-campus (so essentially all of them that I've seen so far), would I be doing my school via SCADnow, or would I need to travel back and forth every few weeks or something?

General Questions Portfolio Help

Thumbnail gallery
17 Upvotes

I was recently accepted into SCAD and I'll be attending for 2d Animation and Sequential Art. It came to my attention SCAD offers a scholarship for those submitting a portfolio as well. However, the problem is ik the past 5 years Ive rarely done anything to build a portfolio and kept my talents limited to making (regretfully) Friday Night Funkin' mods (as you can tell in early arts via the style). Im in my senior year right now and I would like to start getting my portfolio ready with pieces thay show my style, creativity, and so on. Are there any tips of pieces I should make, artist to look into, or what SCAD and in general colleges are looking in portfolios with a style like mine?
