Updates before Midterm Critique

Following Chinn's email to avoid any "catch-ups" during critique, here are the latest updates for my piece:

After the previous blogged struggles, I finally finished all the sewing and trimming for both panels. I have also made a digital mock-up, which I will give out to all the faculty tonight. It will help everyone visualize the scale. Additionally, there is one small change that the original designed angle of the corner was 90 degrees, but it will now most likely to be 120. After talking to Deborah and a few of other faculty, it will be more inviting and open for the audience to enter the "space" on the 2D surface. I also checked with Kaitlin to make sure it is okay with the gallery layout and she said it shouldn't be any troubles.

Besides the fabric panels, I also started making films for the figure. Some of the parts form the previous print, such as the head, the hand and the backpack won't change while some will alter for this specific installation. The coat will have a completely different design and the feet will too, based on the angle the figure is facing. The schedule is to finish making films on Friday and finish printing from Saturday to Sunday.

My questions for the faculty will be whether I should screen-print the perspective lines for the room or draw with marker, so it is more gesture?
