General Information

Overview

This unit will assist students to develop a level of fluency and confidence with sketching, drawing and visualising commensurate with requirements for developing and communicating visual concepts and ideas in creative production team environments, and for presenting visual components of multimedia designs to prospective clients and/or funding bodies. This unit will help you to develop skills in illustration and visualision using traditional (manual) drawing materials. Learn how to see like an artist by perceiving edges, negative space, perspective, proportion, tone and texture. Develop your drawing ability through the application of these perceptual skills, even if you believe that you have no artistic talent. Explore the legacy of Renaissance art and alternative traditions such as Egyptian, Eastern and modern art. Familiarise yourself with principles of colour theory. Discover how to draw expressive cartoon figures from fundamental shapes and forms. Note: The unit resources are presented online and so access to a computer with an Internet connection is required.
