Reviews of professor Deon Robinson

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Nice professor, however, grading is unclear and impossible standards. He breaks the work up into two week modules which seems amazing until your sketches arent approved of until two days before so you have a tedious drawing and no time. He rarely answers his email. Grades are always very low with points being deducted for doing exactly what he said

He is a exceptionally nice professor who offers a huge chunk in extra credit to boost your grade. However, he is almost impossible to reach via email and the hardest part of his class is how he designated time for projects. Expect double the time for preliminary sketches then the actual project and be ready to pull all nighters.

Lot's of extra credit, he gave us 6% of extra credit opportunities in the year. Although, this is because he is a tough grader. He does not allow you to use any other medium except for gauche, so keep this in mind if you've never used it. Accessible only though office hours, and if you email him, he will tell you to come see him. Fun though.

Robinson is an awesome professor, highly recommend. He is an extremely chill dude and constantly radiates good vibes, which reflects in his classroom environment. Projects all centered around painting with GOUACHE, which is a difficult medium. Small lecture each class, take good notes. There's 5 projects split into "modules".

Be prepared to draw a LOT! Felt more like an illustration class than a design class. Projects usually take a lot of time and he could grade base on his personal likings instead of the actual quality of the works. But he does give out a lot of extra credit opportunities to bring your grade up. You can get a good grade but you will not learn much.

He is a very nice person, the projects are very tedious but he also gives a lot of extra credit opportunities as well. If you want to get a good grade you need to manage your time to be able to finish all your work and also complete the online module for the lectures the modules are very easy, he shows power points for each chapter, just take notes

Professor Robinson is overall really chill, the work is a little challenging and sometimes tedious. And his class is usually pretty lecture heavy, but if you like that hes a solid choice. Gives you plenty of time to work in class. Not the most energetic but he knows what hes talking about and I looked forward to his class.
