Heather Boyd

ArtofAleksey

I’d like to give it a try. My schedule is erratic so I might be in and out but when I watched the videos before I only did 1/4 of the exercises so I hope this might keep me on track better.

Phil Cullen

That sounds great @Braden-Hallett I'm in. I like the idea of into being broken up into weeks. Are you thinking week 1 would be next week and post by the end of the week.

MichaelaH

I am also very interested, want to find time for it, although I am simultaneously working on paid project.
So when do we start, next week?

xin li

I would like to be part of this. When do we start?

Erin.Cortese

@Braden-Hallett Great idea, I’m in!

Coley

@Braden-Hallett yes yes yes and ...yes I love this idea! I have to go figure out the discord thing..........going off to google it now and see about signing up thanks!

braden H

Awesome!

I'm thinkin' we'll officially start Monday, and we'll have a soft deadline of sunday nights (I'll start a new thread for each week every sunday night).

@SketchyArtish had a link to a discord channel we can use for chatting in the 'Discord for the arts'. If I decide to set up my own with voice channels I'll post a link later on

ArtofAleksey

@Braden-Hallett great idea. This will help me keep myself accountable too

Click here to join the Discord for the Arts

There is a quick registration form they use to filter out trolls or spammers. Once you've done that you can access the entire server. Just mention that you're from SVS and you should get right in. There is a voice chat in there if we want to use that. We're doing today's portion of the 100 Head Challenge in the voice channel right now.

What a great idea! I am finishing Mastering Perspective right now and after that I was planning to take the Creative Environment class, so this is the perfect timing! I am totally in and thank you all for this opportunity! :smiling_face_with_open_mouth:

Coley

@SketchyArtish I still don't understand what discord is about tho I did ask to join discord for the arts Will we chat live together there? Will we set times for that? I am a confused middle age woman right now trying to register on a gaming site lol

braden H

@Coley Discord is kinda like Skype, except better, fast, newer, shinier, etc. It's just a really awesome chat room program. So, yes. Live chat.

You can use it to chat via text, or voice chat. It keeps everyone involved together and organized so everyone knows where to go to chat. Chat chat chat. Gosh I'm saying chat a lot.

Though we COULD chat back and forth on these forums, it would quickly get a tad untenable. It's easier to post pics and maybe feedback on the forums and use discord for the informal stuff.

That being said, we'll see!

Coley

@Braden-Hallett ok , it's an expiriment fun stuff. We'll see how it goes. I am not very techie so we will see if I can figure it out ha ha

JerrySketchyArt

@Coley I see that you've joined the server. That's step 1 down!

Next, you will want to click on the channel called "directory" on the left. Take that application info and paste it into "the-pond". Just fill the info in to the best of your ability. I'll try to make sure everyone gets approved.

To upload an image you can simply drag it from your desktop into the chat section, or click the + button on the left side of the chat.

Heather Boyd

Okay I joined up -just included my 2018 digital collection for the three images no problem. Waiting for approval and next steps, thanks.

MichaelaH

I also joined Discord, it was not that easy...

demotlj

I just joined Discord too. I don't know how much I'll be able to participate in the chat room but I'm willing to give it a shot ... and besides, now I can feel like a cool Mom, hanging out with the gamers

JerrySketchyArt

@Heather-Boyd For some reason I don't see your post in there. I do see you joined the server, but no post in "the-pond". We've gotten Brandon, Christina, Michaela, and Laurie in so far.
