Service Learning

Literal

• Log: Every Thursday, 2.5 hours (since January 23 to April 21)
Frank has been mentoring me and I have been doing the things he assigns me. At the end of the session I usually help clean up the class.

• Contact Name & Number: Frank Hsu (909)967-9044

InterpretiveWhat is the most important thing you gained from this experience? Why?
I think the most important thing I gained from this experience was all the knowledge I was able to learn about Traditional arts and about how the entertainment industry sort of ran, since Frank had some experience doing product designs. It is important because now I can see how much more I need to learn and stregthen, in order to make it into the Entertainment indstry some day.
AppliedHow did what you did help you answer your EQ? Please explain.
Well because of all the mentoring, Frank basically helped me finalize my best answer to my essential question. He was always telling me to have a really strong foundation in figure drawing, composition and other things. And throughout my research I saw what he meant, even in digital art. I found painting on the computer very similiar to painting on canvas. Frank was the one who told me it would be very beneficial to every artist to learn about painting.

Ten Hour SL Check

Where are you doing SL? 
I am doing my service learning with Frank Hsu who teaches an Art class.

How many hours have you completed?
I have completed at least 15 hours of service learning with Frank. (The classes are about 2 and a half hours )

What kinds of things are you doing, and what have you learned?
Basically My teacher is mentoring me in different aspects of traditional arts. He is aware that I am doing my project on Enertainment arts, and stresses the importance of having a strong traditional arts background and having knowledge in different mediums. I have learned through his mentoring about composition, figure drawing, and other important things that artist need to know in order to move onto more difficult artistic tasks.
