3D design identity research 18th November

Identity Research   18th November

Once again it was time to go back to 3D for another two weeks, but this time the theme was "Identity". After a power point presentation we then went off to do some research and to come up with some ideas on what we would like to do. I wanted to continue the Celtic theme from my last 3D project as it is an important part of my identity and heritage. After talking it through with my tutor, we agreed I would carry on with that theme, but instead of continuing the same project, I would take a different aspect I find interesting and develop it in a different direction.

With this in mind I did some research. I wanted to go into the meanings behind some of the jewellery worn by the Celts. I know from my last project that each of the knots, as well as the animals on the jewellery had a different meaning. I'm sure that once I do some more research I'll find out more information on these things.

Another difference this time round is the design sheets. We have to make at least two A1 sheets of what we are making. As this is a big thing, not only for this course, but also for the portfolio, we were given a task of doing a bit of research on drawings of designs in our chosen field. This is something I found very useful as seeing how different designers work gives me a lot of ideas on how I can present my own work.

At the end of the day with a lot of ideas in my head, I went home to do some more research and hopefully sort out where I wanted to go with this theme.
