Visual Communication Design.
In Levels 7 and 8, students research and investigate the practices and viewpoints of designers in the creation of visual communications and gain an understanding of how to visually communicate ideas to an audience. They experiment and develop their skills in creative, critical and reflective thinking through the use of a design process. Students consider social, ethical, economic, and environmental factors of visual communication design practice.
Students identify, analyse, interpret and evaluate visual communications from a range of cultures, times and places. They investigate the use of visual language through the use of drawing conventions, design elements and principles and how these communicate ideas to different audiences in different contexts and locations.
Students develop an understanding of safe and ethical practices when generating, developing and refining visual design presentations, including exploring sustainable practices.
Explore and Represent Ideas
By the end of Level 8, students identify and describe how designers use visual communication practices to respond to briefs in different historical, social and cultural contexts. They apply this knowledge in the development of their own visual communication practices.
Students select and use appropriate drawing conventions, methods, materials, media, design elements and design principles to create effective visual communications.
Students evaluate how they and others are affected and influenced by visual communications from different cultures, times and places. They identify and describe practices of visual communication designers in visual communications from different cultures, times and places.

Font Space – this is one of the best sites as they claim to have 21, 043 fonts in their database. You can choose from the popular ones, or you can look for the newly uploaded ones. It’s up to you. Just click the font name or image and download.
1001fonts - this one’s also claiming a thousand fonts. The only difference of this site from fontspace is that you could actually buy premium fonts here. Other sites: dafont, 1001freefonts, fonts. |
Years 7/8 Visual Communication 2020
Week 2.
Your Visual Diary. |
(VCAVCDV002) |
Your Visual Diary should remain neat and organised at all times. Your Visual Diary should resemble a journal of your learning experiences over the semester.
You should also use your computer as a Visual Diary. Tutorials for specific computer programs are excellent if kept this way.
It is important that you source any images you find and use in your visual diary. If you use Google Images, please make sure you click through to the website and get the reference for the webpage.
Be original, explore, develop and refine your work constantly. All design goes through multiple stages of refinement to get to a final product. These refinements are all part of your assessment. Therefore if it does not work the first time - try again!
Your Laptop.
Your laptop is a valuable resource and must be charged and ready for use at all times. All work, examples and instructions appear on this webpage and there are numerous resources that can help you with your work. Please make sure that your Network folder remains organised and that you delete/remove any files/folders that are NOT school related. I will need to be able to find your files/folders easily - if I cannot find them, it wastes my time and I do not go looking for them. Especially true if I am going to print things for you.
Back up your work regularly. There is no excuse for losing work.
I do not want to see or hear anything taking place on laptops that is not work related in my classes.
You may listen to music at a low volume only during work time. Music must NOT be stored on the school Network. You should use an iPod or similar or store your music on a USB. Your music should not interfere with yours or others' work. This includes constant shuffling of music, sharing listening devices, volume issues and using devices while I am talking or during other specified times in class. It is a privilege not a right.

There is a black folder with pages in it for reference although some of the page numbers are different so double check - use it to reference but remember all instructions and information are on this web site also, so check there as well!
Some of you are falling behind and need to catch up sooner rather than later please.
Some of you are falling behind and need to catch up sooner rather than later please.
Common mistakes:
OKI is OK for printing......get anything A4 done and print via classroom laptops but check and do not waste colour printing. A3 (poster and logo work) needs to go to staffroom so need to go in a 'to be printed' folder on the network.
- Not measuring and ruling your borders neatly.
- Not completing set work and keeping up with what is required.
- Not reading instructions thoroughly or looking at examples.
- Move printed stuff out of your 'To Be Printed' folder once it is printed! Please let me know if you have A3 work to be printed and I will create a list so I do not have to search in everyone's folders!
- Wasting class time - if there is something you are stuck on or your computer does not work, there is always alternative work you can do, move on to something you can do until you can get help. CHECK YOUR PLASTIC POCKET FOLDER!!!! I may have put work in there and in most cases I have work to do that is weeks ahead on this page as well!!!!!!!!

Start of Remote Learning:
Last Thursday 19th March, you were directed to take your workbooks and pocket folders home. It is disappointing that some of you have left them here at school and are not here to collect them. This work was set specifically so that you do not have to rely on the internet.
You may be able to arrange to get them if you ring the school. You are required to spend time doing your perspective work. It is difficult without giving you a demonstration BUT there are plenty of examples and some videos that will help you out. This week, you should at least do the light greylead lines on each of the one and two point perspective worksheets in your pocket folders.

Continuing Perspectives.
Term 2.
Week 10.
This.is the first week of remote learning. You guys are great at this and have it nailed as you use this web page all the time. Please just go through all the areas above to just refresh what has been done and what we are doing now. Watch the videos, look at the examples and instructions!
Let's look at page 15 - you need to do the activities on this page as per the instructions for Week 9 so have a look back and find the vanishing points. This was meant to be done in class. Hints are on Compass.
You MUST use a ruler and follow the lines that are there and not just make them up.
Also on this date, submit your 1 point perspective initials and your progress on your 2 point perspective cities. I really need to monitor your cities as this is quite involved piece. Again, I cannot stress enough for you to look and read the instructions above - they are very clear. If you are confused, send a picture and ask a question!
I need to see progress!

You MUST use a ruler and follow the lines that are there and not just make them up.
- On the one point perspective - you only need to find about 4 or 5 lines that will lead to the vanishing point. Use the lines on the building/floor.
- To do the building, you need to work lightly in hb pencil and then fineliner with a ruler as you will be rubbing out! Find the VP's first!!!!

Demonstration and follow along:
One Point Perspective room with digital photo completed in double session today. Must look correct! This is the last perspective work we are doing! Everything up to and including page 20 should be completed and presented in your book. When you have read all the instructions for today, you are to move up to the front tables with your laptop and your book open. Open a new page in Publisher - A4 landscape then stand up and walk over to the tape measure on the door and with your nose against the tape measure, determine where your eyeline is and take note of the measurement. Remember it! Mine is 160cm.
Return to your seat and get ready to look and listen and follow along. |
When you have read all the above, open the calculator on your laptop. Stand up and say "I am ready" then sit down again.
Paraline drawing involves you knowing and understanding many different 'rules' to complete your drawing tasks. You should constantly refer to the page to ensure you are doing it correctly.
Drawing board, t-square and set squares! Basic introduction. Refer to page 3 of your workbook.
***IT IS REALLY IMPORTANT THAT YOU WORK VERY LIGHTLY WITH HB PENCIL AGAIN OR YOUR PAGE WILL GET MESSY AND DIRTY AND I WOULD HATE TO HAVE TO ASK YOU TO DO YOUR WORK AGAIN!
***IT IS REALLY IMPORTANT THAT YOU WORK VERY LIGHTLY WITH HB PENCIL AGAIN OR YOUR PAGE WILL GET MESSY AND DIRTY AND I WOULD HATE TO HAVE TO ASK YOU TO DO YOUR WORK AGAIN!
Wednesday:
- Finish fineliner work on your practice sheet then add titles as per the example IN CAPITAL LETTERS!
- Rule a light line to write on about 10mm below each shape.
- Clean up your page by erasing any greylead or smudges - your page MUST be clean. If not, you may like to have another go.
The main thing about your practice is to remember that you MUST use the set square and T-square together! NO guessing and NO ruling to 'guess' your lines!
Measuring and working lightly with a HB is also important!
There is a video called Paraline drawing 2 with commentary in your network folder. Along with the information on the Paraline drawing page and what you have just seen, complete a paraline drawing sheet neatly! Note - it took me just under 10 minutes! But I am terrific.
Store in plastic pocket folder.

PLEASE REMOVE THINGS FROM YOUR TO BE PRINTED FOLDER IF THEY HAVE BEEN PRINTED! ANYTHING THAT IS A4 IS FOR YOU TO PRINT YOURSELVES!
It is not too late for me to add some extra comments to your reports so make sure you use the double session productively. You will need to be in the art room to access your books and the folder as well as drawing boards etc.
Is everything I asked you to complete last week done? I can still add to reports!
- Ensure anything that is A3 is in a to be printed folder AND LET ME KNOW. You can print A4 yourselves for page 24 - just make sure the shapes are in towards the centre of the image so you can trim the 3 pages to fit inside the border.
Please use the headphones when listening to videos!
Using Loom, make an instructional video on how to transfer a file to Photoshop and begin to colour in. Up to the stage where you go Image-Mode-RGB colour. You may have to find somewhere quiet to sit. Include sound please!

Things you should do on a regular basis
- Open computer and look at this website!
- Check your set squares - each person had 2 different ones in their plastic pockets - I found too many without owners of late. You are responsible for looking after this equipment.
- Open your book and look at your checklists and notes - do not let yourself fall behind! If it is not stamped, it is not complete and overdue.
- Work on completing your 1 and 2 point perspectives in Publisher, print and glue in on page 17.
- Those with overdue work show me your work, signed notes and get them marked off.
- Ensure that you have a ruler for Thursday's class - a set square will not do the job.
