This subject is a natural progression from Art and Design at GCSE. Fine Art and Three-Dimensional Design. Although other routes will be considered, students are expected to start the course with knowledge and understanding of 3D drawing and observational drawing skills as they will be expected to communicate a range of research and design developments through visual communication in a range of 2D Media. Students will explore a range of concepts within product and jewellery design and modelling skills to produce products in clay, metal, timbers, plastics and recycled Objects. Students will communicate design ideas through the production of a portfolio of design work which demonstrates their ability to design, sample, and model and produce aesthetically pleasing as well as functional outcomes, such as Jewellery, Sculpture, ceramic works and furniture. Students will develop and communicate ideas through a wide range of 2D and 3D media working in a range of scales. Students will study and explore a variety of existing designers and products from around the world in order to develop their own ideas.
Students study two components, where they must produce a body of work that draws on the work of others and communicate their ideas through visual means, the written word, and model-making. Component 1: Portflio (60%) Component 2: Portflio (40%)
