Welcome!!
Congratulations, you are about to undertake an amazing journey, an intense one no doubt, but one that is INCREDIBLY satisfying and rewarding. You'll be visualising and producing work that, at this, the beginning of the journey, you won't believe you could create. However! You've got to GET GOOD! You MUST... 1) Learn how to discuss a variety of designs using the correct terminology. 2) Know and understand the assessment criteria and 3) Learn your craft... be it sketching, painting, fashion design or architecture, learn how to do it and do it well... and finally... of course 4) Work hard! This course isn't just about achieving a grade... it has a much more practical element than that. In design you will be focussing on building a portfolio. Generally the ATAR to get into degrees in this field are achievable, some of them start at 60, so where you need to secure you spots is through your portfolio.
While you are in this class, you are a designer, so that means everything you present must look good (form) and communicate well (function). |
