TRAN-152: Visual 2

As a continuation of Visual 1, this course emphasizes methods of sketching and economically rendering design concepts clearly and correctly. Information is presented on effectively employing light and shadow to emphasize form read. Methods for developing contrast between objects and background, shadow plotting and composition development are all introduced. Required tools (digital and physical) are described throughout the course and their use is demonstrated. Further instruction is given on how to produce appropriate sketches with form defining value applied both manually and digitally, which can greatly enhance the communication in working design environments, formal presentations, and interactions with modeling teams. Additionally, students will be introduced to the fundamentals of graphic design.
