Draw By Night #33 - The Hand Off
What happens when you mix a roomful of artists, giant pieces of paper, and a crazy theme? If you’re Digital Design instructor Myron Campbell, you turn those ingredients into Vancouver’s only bi-monthly drawing party. At Draw By Night, artists can work collaboratively on pieces, or by themselves on their own section. The only emphasis is on getting everyone drawing. Participants are encouraged to use Twitter or other social media to discuss the event and post pictures, allowing real-time engagement with the drawing community. They can also post ideas and comments that are often integrated into the next event.

2D Graphics 3 is an elective course that combines techniques from both Illustrator and Photoshop. The class analyzes and deconstructs current styles and trends, such as “Street Art” and how the movement has expanded beyond graffiti into things like yarn-bombing, wheat-pasting, stenciling, sticker art and LED art. The students then emulate this style.

The design industry is built upon the principles of composition and storytelling across all media. More and more, the lines of traditional mediums are blurring. As such, designers who understand mixed-media ideation are in high demand. This term 6 course focuses on the combination of digital and analogue techniques to efficiently produce stop motion animation for compelling narratives. This course is built on the principles of teamwork, organization, and experimentation; students work in teams, while contributing to a single class project.

Simon Vieira's graduate project, Diligo, is a social change website that allows people to collaborate, socialize, and invest together in ideas that will change the world in a positive way. The site enables individuals to post an initiative and have the public rate it. The higher the rating, the more exposure the initiative gets.
The branding effort for this project included the identity itself, the brand guidelines booklet, packaging, advertising, stationary and the website itself.

The theme of our recent Digital Design Talks was melange — a mix of all that is wonderful and inspirational. The student team of Magda Else Becker, Lina Zhao and Feryal Khawar beautifully presented an overview of their Interactive Design 2 course project, Sooul — an experiential site for circus-inspired training — and revealed their rigorous design process. Perry Chua (http://www.perrychua.com), branding and design expert extraordinaire, delivered an extremely motivating speech on visualization.

As part of the Term 5 elective, Experimental 2D Graphics, we spend one entire class in a room with no computers. We bring all sorts of materials together like paint, magazines, pencils, markers, and glue. Each student uses all these materials to create hand-made textures to scan-in for later use in their digital work.
This exercise is one of many that suggests that not all answers to visual problems lie behind your computer screen. Sometimes you need to get your hands dirty!
