Discover the world of Graphic Design which is all around us. Communication through design is key and is a fundamental part of our everyday lives. Be inspired to make a difference in the ever-evolving world of design. This is an art-based graphic design course. We introduce you to a broad range of styles and design movements. You will be involved in designing, creating, and solving graphical problems in order to meet the needs of commercial briefs. Visual Communication is key! You will explore how messages can be successfully communicated through the organisation of images and words, as well as three-dimensional design. If you like the idea of designing using both freehand drawing as well as computer-generated techniques, if you want to create work with paper, card, foam and plastics, and, have an interest in designing packaging, corporate identities, point of sale displays, logo’s, typography, and multi-media design then opt for this graphics course.
A minimum of five GCSE subjects at grade 4 or above. A GCSE Design Technology or an Art is preferred but not essential.
This is a 100% coursework assessed A level subject (2 year course). There are no written exams instead you are required to demonstrate your knowledge, understanding, and capabilities through your practical and design work. In your first year your design book will contain: - Evidence of the techniques we have taught you through the set Exercises and short projects; - Evidence of your own extended project (to include research, analysis, designing, and making); - Preliminary design work for the exam board-set project; and - Final designs and outcomes.
