In your sketchbook, use the knowledge acquired in our in-class exercise this week to draw a figure of an athlete performing in an Olympic sport. Use photo reference found online or in a book or magazine. (Helpful tip: There's a great album of Olympic photos at this link)
Try to stick to drawing a figure where none of the body parts are foreshortened. The best photos to use will show the body in profile view, like this example.
Visit the official website of the Olympics, olympic.org and have a look at the design of the homepage. Make note of all the design elements you see in your browser window.
In sketch form (as you did for the animal cracker box or the Paranorman midterm drawing) sketch a redesign of the olympic.org website homepage incorporating your drawing as a design element.
* Note: as with ALL your graphic design projects, do three quick thumbnail sketches for yourself showing a variety of possible design solutions before doing the full-size sketch.
