THAD 207 - Design Communications
Three Nudes - Human Figure

The costume designer works with the human body. It is the armature for that which they create. The first exercise is intended to give the begining designer a chance to get a slightly better understanding of the human form.

Each student will read the assigned play and then create 3 black and white nude drawings of the characters from the play. These drawings will be based on the concept statement that develops from the designer's analysis of the play and the resulting research.
