Aims
This module aims to develop an awareness of the importance of research in the design process and how that can that be applied in relation to a finished design. Alongside this, the module is about developing a practical understanding of costume/property-making techniques and skills and applying those in relation to a final design-led performance or presentation.
Learning Outcomes
1.
Differentiate from a range of basic equipment, materials and processes for Costume Making and Prop Making, acting safely, competently and appropriately.
2.
Research independently and effectively to examine historical detail and support the design and making process.
3.
Use a range of materials and processes to communicate and express a design.
4.
Choose an effective way to document the making process through an appropriate use of sketches, notation, work file and self-evaluation.
Module Content
Outline Syllabus:
The module will begin with a series of lectures and field visits, combined with private research time and drawing. Practical workshops will introduce particular making skills in relation to communicating designs and costume and prop making. The module will build to an intense period of practical realisation culminating in a presentation/performance. Assessment will take into account the continual design and realisation process as well as the finished costume and prop plus work files documenting the research and making process.
