Aim
The aim is to provide knowledge and skills to translate sketches into a foundation for presentations in a way that is relevant for the product, context and observer. Furthermore the course aims to promote creative and effective sketching as a natural tool in all phases of the PD-process.
Learning outcomes (after completion of the course the student should be able to)
- Sketch/picture people in relevance to objects and events.
- Analyse and sketch product ideas individually but also put in a context in order to verify and present ideas at a concept level
- Evaluate and adapt the sketch to various levels of receivers in the PD-process.
- Use software that handles vector graphics, text and pixelated images in order to make simple but sharp presentations for both print and digital use.
Content
- Training to sketch objects/products in relation to other objects/products, environments and people in a convincing manner and with an appropriate level of detailing
- In-depth training in how to develop the ability to sketch quickly and to adapt the sketch to the various levels of receivers and stages of the PD-process.
- The use and practice of software that handles vector graphics, text and pixelated images in order to make elementary presentations in various medias.
- Exercise in oral presentation.
- Studies of nude model
