BA Illustration team hosts summer school
ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø’s Swansea College of Art has welcomed 40 students from Wuhan University of Technology to take part in Summer School. As part of their visit, the students have enjoyed two sessions with the University’s BA Illustration team led by lecturers Ian Simmons, Delyth Lloyd Evans and Chris Harrendence.
After an initial presentation outlining the brief and explaining what they would need to do during the morning session the students were separated into two groups, each group creating drawings on large pieces of paper. Halfway through the morning session the groups swapped tables and continued working into each other’s drawings.
In the afternoon there was a short presentation on the BA Illustration course and then a new brief was outlined involving character design where students worked individually to design their own anthropomorphic characters.
Wuhan University lecturer Shi Dong said 2Tthe Summer School is a great opportunity for the students to broaden their horizons. The way they are taught in China is totally different from the way you teach at Swansea College of Art, and it was good to see how they coped with briefs that were out of their comfort zone. The students really enjoyed the different courses they participated in, and it has opened their eyes to a different way of doing thingsâ€.
