Future Graphic Designers

Southampton Solent University (UK), students on a graphics and illlustration course took part in an activity planned to encourage thinking about movement and colour in advertising culture.

The activity posted above involved life drawing, using this as a starting point, students developed shapes from these sketches to influence an advertisement made to stimulate a chosen emotion/feeling in the viewer.

Resources for schools

If you are a teacher viewing this site for help with resources. There will be many links available, I will cite the ones recommended by other teachers and personally used, in postings.

The first recommendation is with thanks to two primary school teachers who recently attended a training day. They have been using LCP plans to develop a scheme of work within their school. This resource allows for planning to incorporate all aspects of teaching neccesary to fulfil Artsmark award criteria. There are links to LCP on this site.
