Make a short video of your Doodle Journal. It can have a free format, meaning, be creative. (See some examples of the student’s submissions.) You have to document each page of your journal and talk about your journey working with it. You must have minimum 35 pages. You can zoom in and show more details, you can talk as long as you want, just don’t explain what you did, it’s more about your ideas than saying:”For this page I used graphite pencil, and it didn’t work. So the next page I tried with a pen”. NO! You want people to hear your thoughts behind each page. Make it interesting and entertaining!
This is a professional example of one of the sketchbook tours done by Jess Karp. I hope it will inspire you to be more creative and experimental with your Doodle Journal.
What to do:
- Look through pages of your Doodle Journal, and congratulate yourself for doing it every day. (Did you do it everyday?)
- You can hold your phone, or you can ask someone to make a video while you are flipping through the pages and talking about your work.
- Be natural, just talk like you are talking to your friends. It’s a very informal video.
- Flip through all the pages, tell stories, comment on your work, share the experience.
- If you want you can do some editing.
- Upload your video on Youtube, and embed your submission on Canvas.
- Write a short 150 word paragraph answering the following questions:
– What was the most difficult for you while working with the Doodle Journal?
– What was the most unexpected?
– Did you explore all the possibilities of the Doodle Journal?
– Next week you are going to start the second half of the Doodle Journal. What word of advise will you give to yourself?
