REFLECTION
In small groups (3 or 4), look back at the research and drawings you did in prep work week 1 (zyama.com research).
Write down the key features of the masks on your mini whiteboard ready to share this with the group

Key Features of African Masks

3. Learning Objectives You will: What I’m looking for…
Learn to identify the key features of African Masks.
Learn to design masks using the inspiration and influence gained from looking at African masks.
Learn to apply pencil crayon colour and use tone to render 3D qualities.
What I’m looking for…
You understand what the key characteristics of African masks are in order to inform the planning and designing of your own work.
You have an ability to generate different design ideas that are influenced by African masks.
You have an ability to apply pencil crayon accurately and with tone to render your designs as 3D looking masks.

4. Before we can make a mask, what do we need to do first?*
5 minutes
Before we can make a mask, what do we need to do first?*
Create some initial design ideas.
Why is it important to produce at least 3 design ideas?*
It provides an opportunity to consider a variety of possible solutions.
What comes after the initial design ideas?*
A final design which can combine the best parts of the initial ideas to make the strongest possible outcome. 4

5. Initial Idea 1 Initial Idea 2 Initial Idea 3
On the next 3 right hand sketchbook pages you need to:
Draw a rectangle,
8 x 14cm in the centre
30 minutes
Initial Idea 1
2. Then, thinking about the discussion we have just had and looking back at the research, draw 3 different mask designs in pencil line.
3. Afterwards, add colour with tone to each design
Initial Idea 2
Initial Idea 3 5

6. EXAMPLES
Think how you can use varied pressure with the pencil crayon to add tone and a sense of 3D. 6

7. Put titles ‘initial or mask design 1/2/3 etc’
PREP.WORK
PREP.WORK WK4
Ensure that all 3 of your initial designs are completed in full colour and with tone.
Put titles ‘initial or mask design 1/2/3 etc’
