VCDD 311 Design Development I

This course takes a broader approach to creative design thinking, and encourages exploration of wider visual sources, media and methods of expression. Skills of visual judgment and critical assessment developed through projects and critiques instigate more complex and expansive frames of reference, both in terms of visual research and visual vocabulary. Emphasis is placed upon the use and development of research and visual vocabulary, as well as upon developing more expressive uses of typography, image and format, through the exploration and use of sequential and narrative devices, and an emphasis on the relationship and dialogue between communicator and audience.
