| Course Modules | |
Year One: Subject: visual languages Subject: in contexts Build the tools, language and understanding you need to become an imaginative observer, an interpreter and a visual dramatist. Through tutor-led briefs, you’ll explore themes of visual communication, interpretation, rhetoric and narrative. You’ll take on a number of projects that all inform each other – giving you ample opportunity to self-reflect and critique your practice. Field one: collaborate: Widen your horizons by joining students from other courses to collaborate on a project. You’ll take inspiration from other disciplines to build on your experience and expand your creativity – and use your skills and artistic insight to apply them to your work. Constellation: concept: This module introduces you to the wider world of ideas, theory and contextual studies to help you develop your academic research skills and critical thinking. You’ll focus on particular areas of interest in study groups and you’ll become familiar with the exciting trans-disciplinary research and expertise in Cardiff School of Art & Design. Year Two: Subject: enquire, choreograph, grow Learn to communicate complex information using a variety of voices and perspectives. You’ll explore images and texts through tutor-led briefs – designed to help you to develop your own approach and ideas. All of this is underpinned by discourse, reading and writing to expand your knowledge and understanding of the subject. Field two: explore You’ll expand your experiences with challenging projects designed to encourage you to explore and experiment outside your immediate discipline. This transformative opportunity leads to new thinking and innovation – and opens up all kinds of future possibilities. You’ll take on exciting projects that challenge you in new ways. You can also choose to travel, take a work placement, start your own business or try something new. Constellation: critique By critiquing literature, journals and exhibitions, you’ll hone your ability to put your design practice into context. You’ll also have opportunities to interact with students and staff and delve deeper into your areas of interest. Year Three: Subject: encounter This module is as much about your enquiry into visual languages as it is about developing final work. You’ll consider difficult subject matter that challenges your communication skills. And you’ll explore new ways of working – taking you beyond traditional methods to help further your creative practice. Field three: exposure Your final term is dedicated to a major project and an exhibition of your work. This is where you draw together everything you’ve learned during the course and is the launch pad to your future career. Constellation: contribution Your practice is underpinned by your knowledge. Demonstrate your research and analysis skills in your final constellation submission, where you’ll explore ideas in both written and practical forms. |
