Teaching example for VCE Visual Communication Design Task

AT Logo

March 14, 2024

Head

Teaching example, aid for pace and perfect imperfection of idea generation- just getting it onto the page. Perfect analogy for releasing emotion through the creative process.

heart

Holding onto the glimmer of hope for a future of balanced work/life. Finally able to acknowledge pride of potential shining through.

hands

A dozen initial pen sketches as student example. Enjoying the motion visible. Adobe illustrator refinement from ink based pen tools, experimenting with colour for aesthetic appeal.

Perfectly imperfect

Idea generation, concept development without fear.

Head

For the times you need a break from the intensity of life and treatment. I am finally learning the value of rest and a reduced pace.

heart

After addressing highly emotive, serious content for weeks it was time to let some lighthearted content flow. Sometimes you need to giggle!

hands

3 session creation- first: in group, sourcing/cutting/arranging imagery from fungi book and googley eyes. Second: in hospital room arranging on page and sticking central elements. Third: in room, finalising edges, eyes and installed on door to share the giggles!
