This isn't your grandma's makeup! Play around with costuming makeup and gain some tricks of the trade. Learn how to make fake wounds and scars; use props and prosthetics to change your look; experiment on yourselves and each other. You _must_ inform the teacher if you have an allergy to latex, aluminum, or any other compounds that may be common in makeup or costuming materials. Liquid latex is very common in costuming, and we'll be using a lot of it, so use your judgment.

Want to do better than the loads of crappy dragon art out there on the Internets? Or maybe draw aliens that don't look like Star Trek characters? Want to sit and art with your pals while learning from each other and a teacher? This is the place to be. Drawing Fantastical and Alien Creatures is an interactive art class. Students will bring their own pencils and paper (or other art supplies) and learn how to create plausibly structured fictional non-human creatures. The class is question-based; what material is covered depends on what students ask, and they will brainstorm among themselves as well as receiving answers from the teacher.Want to do better than the loads of crappy dragon art out there on the Internets?

Students will learn basic techniques for drawing people: the proportions of the human body, basic prominent musculature, some widely shown stances, and facial/hand structure in particular. Time permitting, shading may be introduced, but the class centers on using just line drawing to depict humans realistically. (No nude models will be used in this class.)

A basic introduction to circuits, including resistors, capacitors, inductors, and basic equivalent circuits. May extend to RLC circuits if mathematical background allows. The first half of the class is a lecture; the second half is a build-your-own project.
