Composition
10 %

Orientation of picture plane for best design. Figure/ ground relationships.
How the composition was read.
Use of principles and elements of design - Symmetry/ asymmetry, balance/ unbalance, positive/ negative space, etc.

Exceeds

The student displays an immense amount of knowledge on compositional elements. above average attention to rendering and detail. Advanced composition incorporating all of the design elements (balance, contrast, harmony, emphasis, movement, proportion, pattern, variety, unity, rhythm, repetition etc).
Meets

The composition fills the picture plane in an interesting way using the negative space as part of the composition.
The composition holds the eye, visually well balanced. Composition incorporating most of the design elements (balance, contrast, harmony, emphasis, movement, proportion, pattern, variety, unity, rhythm, repetition etc).
Approaching

composition incorporating several of the design elements (balance, contrast, harmony, emphasis, movement, proportion, pattern, variety, unity, rhythm, repetition). Drawing is close to being finished.

Proportions and Perspective
10 %

Objects are sighted for correct relative proportion to each other. Proportions of the forms;
Attention to the Alignment and spacing of Negative spaces. Appropriate perspective systems are used when needed. Informal perspective - Using subtle changes in the angles of lines to create the illusion of 3D space Linear perspective - horizon line, vanishing points, etc.

Exceeds

Student understands how to use the tools and techniques covered in class to obtain correct proportions. The student spent the time to go above and beyond to make sure the proportions and linear perspective correctly implemented
Meets

Student understands how to use the tools and techniques covered in class to obtain correct proportions and perspectives.
Approaching

Student understands how to use the tools and techniques covered in class just enough to obtain semi-believable proportions and perspective. Some of the proportions are a little to far off, and could have been corrected with a little more time and effort.
Beginning

Student has a poor understanding of the tools and techniques covered in class. Proportions, perspective and details are a little too far off, either because of lack of time and effort or understanding.

Approaching

Student understands how to use the tools and techniques covered in class enough to obtain semi-believable values. Some of the values are a little to far off, and could have been corrected with closer observation. image may look high or low contrast, very similar or grayed out. Real effort was used.
Beginning

Student has a poor understanding of the tools and techniques covered in class. values are a little too far off, either because of lack of time and effort or understanding. If you received Image is most likely incomplete or very grayed out and flat. May have lights and darks that are competing for the lightest light or the darkest dark.
Unacceptable

Student has a very poor understanding of the tools and techniques covered in class. values are incorrect, either because of lack of time and effort or understanding. Image is most likely incomplete.
