Summer Programme - 3D Design (CSVPA)

This new one-week 3d design course will give you the opportunity to explore different iconic materials used in product design, researching their properties and uses throughout history. You will be introduced to drawing techniques, 3d making skills as well as product photography allowing you to explore the product design process from concept development through to design. Access will be given to the college's workshops giving you the opportunity to experiment and investigate materials before creating your 3d product.
LEARN FROM ART AND DESIGN PROFESSIONALS
This programme will give you the chance to study in central Cambridge in a fun and creative environment led by experienced tutors at CSVPA.

BROADEN YOUR SKILLS IN THE INDUSTRY
Exploring idea generation through material investigation and fabricating processes, you will gain an understanding of the basic skills required for a wide range of 3D design disciplines. Through experimentation and quick-fire responses to the brief, you will start to understand the idea behind key 3D Design principles, including scale, abstraction, material, structure, form movement and colour and their place within wider design pathways.

DEVELOP YOUR SKILLS IN:
Material understanding Model fabrication Basic digital skills including use of laser cutter Presentation Idea generation and development Conceptual thinking

PROGRESSION AT CSVPA
Completion of the course can enable progression on to our University of the Arts London Awarding Body Extended Diploma or Foundation Diploma if you meet the UAL entry criteria for the course.

COURSE OUTCOMES
You will, through problem solving, create 10 outcomes answering the brief based around redesigning a single object

You will utilise state of the art laser cutter technology to prototype conceptual ideas

Project will culminate in a group presentation of outcomes that peers will be able to discuss new ideas and skills developed over the week's activities
