SKETCHING AND RENDERING TECHNIQUES

About this Course

This course is a combination of realistic sketching and marker rendering technique to interpret ideation into 3 dimensional forms. At the beginning, this course is concentrating on introduction of sketching methods, material and media usage, also sketching techniques in producing realistic image in correct perspective. This course creates a highly concentrated experience of manual sketching and marker rendering technique. Students will engage in the fundamental aspects of sketching technique to build an adequate foundation and be preparing for the next level of applying the perspective study and understanding. The structured sets of exercise are designed to develop an increasing awareness of the different aspects of sketching and rendering technique. At the end of this course, students will be exposed on creating the form by using manual sketching and applying the realistic marker rendering from their understanding on assignments that have been given out throughout the semester.

Course Learning Outcomes

1) Performs the design process simulation in sketching techniques through illustrating by using manual sketch to achieve an appealing and presentable drawing
2) Justifying the sketching and rendering techniques by applying 2D drawing into 3D object/surface rendering.
3) Demonstrates an initiative in sketching and marker rendering technique skills
