OPTIONAL MODULES

OUGD104 DESIGN – COMMUNICATION THROUGH TYPE

This module will focus on the development of higher-level Typographic/Layout skills and a deeper understanding of the principles of communication through type.

Building on your existing understanding you will focus on the mechanics of type and the organisation of typographic hierarchies, technical vocabulary and the rules/conventions of type.

You will work predominantly in Quark Express and develop a critical appreciation of the application of type through Type Journal.


OUGD105 IMAGE - DRAWING AS PRACTICE

This module will focus on the development of higher level Image Making skills and a deeper understanding of the principles of communication through image.

You will focus on issues relating to visual translation, composition, sequential thinking and narrative as themes for image base investigation. An investigation of drawing/image making in its broadest sense will allow you to develop a more individual understanding of this aspect of your own design practice through the use of notebooks, sketchbooks etc.

You will be encouraged to choose and use appropriate media in the investigation of your own personal responses to the problems set. These may include drawing media, photography, digital media and moving image.
