Pratt's Pre-college

For the summer of 2013, I'm planning on taking Pratt's summer pre-college program.

Me, being a very undecided individual, is planning on choosing the major "Art and Design Discovery: Explore 2D and 3D techniques in this interdisciplinary course; sample areas of study such as fine arts, illustration, graphic design; and delve into the 3D process of designing objects within industrial design."

That sounds PERFECT for me because it has a little bit of everything, which I'm hoping will really help me decide what I want to do in college. Obviously I'm keeping Communication Design in the back of my head, but I want to explore my options. I also earn 4 college credits for completing it!

So the Art & Design class will be my major, but upon signing up, they also enroll you in other mandatory classes. This includes a Foundations class, an Art History/ Appreciation class, and a Portfolio development class.

Now that all that is out of the way, I want to get down to the nitty gritty. I'm planning on applying for a scholarship for this program, which will be due on March 15. I need to do this:

ART, DESIGN, and ARCHITECTURE: Submit 5 – 10, color photos /digital prints, or 35mm slides. Individual prints should be no larger 8.5 x 11 and may be printed on any paper. No other formats will be accepted. Images of paintings, drawings, 3-D work, sculpture, ceramics, jewelry, printmaking, photography, and other media may be submitted.    (All applicants may include some images of work in their chosen elective however observational drawing is a key component to any portfolio.)

I'll be working on that. I have a few things in mind already:

None of these choices are set in stone yet. I am still open to working more and developing more pieces to add in. I have to consult with Luke and Ganes and see what they think.

I'm excited.
