DES2045 3-D Design 2

Intermediate · 1 credit · MDC - Media, Design, and Communication Arts

Description
Students continue to develop skills and techniques for 3-D design by using tools, materials and processes common to 3-D design to complete a variety of project activities.
Prerequisite
DES1040: 3-D Design 1
Parameters
Basic sketching, drawing, layout tools and/or a computer with 3-D design software.

Outcomes The student will:

  • 1 plan and produce solutions to 3-D design briefs

    • 1.1 select and use appropriate tools and materials as outlined in the design brief

    • 1.2 apply the design process to solve a 3-D design problem; e.g., software modelling, cutting, joining, bending, measuring

    • 1.3 use and maintain tools and materials in a safe and appropriate manner

  • 2 incorporate the elements and principles of design to achieve the design solution

    • 2.1 apply techniques, tools, materials and other resources in design solution; e.g., tone, texture and colour, markers and paints, images, typeface, drawing, layout, measuring, notation, rendering, assembly drawing and correct use of tools

    • 2.2 use mathematical and/or scientific principles as they apply to design projects assigned; e.g., organization of visual space, measurement of internal space, borders, columns, use of scale

    • 2.3 experiment with one or more elements (e.g., colour, line, shape) and/or principles (e.g., rhythm, balance) to achieve desired effects

  • 3 produce and present a portfolio-ready drawing, image or rendering

    • 3.1 participate in interim critiques; e.g., self, peer, instructor

    • 3.2 discuss intentions and decision making related to the application of elements and principles of design

    • 3.3 present images and/or model(s) for assessment

    • 3.4 maintain a design folder, journal or sketchbook as part of the portfolio of ongoing observational drawing activities that illustrates skill building

  • 4 identify copyright restrictions and permissions and put them into practice

  • 5 apply consistent and appropriate work station routines

    • 5.1 demonstrate good health and safety practices; e.g., posture, positioning of hardware and furniture

    • 5.2 demonstrate security for hardware, software, supplies and personal work

  • 6 demonstrate basic competencies

    • 6.1 demonstrate fundamental skills to:

      • 6.1.1 communicate

      • 6.1.2 manage information

      • 6.1.3 use numbers

      • 6.1.4 think and solve problems

    • 6.2 demonstrate personal management skills to:

      • 6.2.1 demonstrate positive attitudes and behaviours

      • 6.2.2 be responsible

      • 6.2.3 be adaptable

      • 6.2.4 learn continuously

      • 6.2.5 work safely

    • 6.3 demonstrate teamwork skills to:

      • 6.3.1 work with others

      • 6.3.2 participate in projects and tasks

  • 7 identify possible life roles related to the skills and content of this cluster

    • 7.1 recognize and then analyze the opportunities and barriers in the immediate environment

    • 7.2 identify potential resources to minimize barriers and maximize opportunities
