| Description (ECIAD) | This course introduces students to the basic
vocabularies, materials and methodologies of
contemporary illustration. Through presentations,
research, iterative exercises, group discussions,
and constructive critiques, students will
explore the key fields, processes, and media that
form the basis of illustration practice. Students
will form a basic foundation of the materials and
principles associated with visual communication,
and their professional outlets. Through critical
analysis and reflection, students will explore the
utilization of these artistic concepts and
principles, contextualized within social,
historical, and contemporary frameworks. Upon
entering the illustration program in their second
year, students will have a strong underpinning of
technical and conceptual skills ready to develop
further in a variety of illustration fields. |
