10 Design and Visual Communication 1
Weekly outline
-
Design and visual communication focuses on understanding and applying drawing techniques and design practice to communicate design ideas. It enhances your ability to conceptualise, develop, and communicate design ideas and potential outcomes. It will also strengthen your ability to interpret graphical information.
The following are the components of Design and Visual Communication.
Knowledge of Design Practice
Design practice focuses on developing conceptual designs in response to a brief. Knowledge of design practice includes understanding that designers identify the qualities and potential of design ideas in terms of the broad principles of design (aesthetics and function) and sustainability, and that they are influenced by societal, environmental, historical, and technological factors.
Visual Communication
Visual communication refers to the effective communication and presentation of design ideas using modelling and graphic design techniques.
Initially, students learn to communicate and present their design ideas and information by applying 2D and 3D visual communication techniques such as sketching, rendering, mock-ups, digital drawing and modelling, annotations, instrumental, templates, collage, and overlays.
After that, students progress to effectively and clearly applying complex and high quality visual techniques and knowledge that communicate a story – the intent of their design ideas –to an audience.
Graphics Practice
Graphics practice refers to the creative application of drawing and design knowledge and techniques to develop conceptual outcomes that address either a brief or a technological outcome of a graphical nature.

Welcome back to school. I hope you have had great break.
My name is Mr Taha and I am going to be your DVC teacher for 2024.
We will start our course by learning about DVC, drawing tools and equipment and how to draw straight lines and circles. We also going to learn about drawing 2D and 3D objects. Later we will be starting our project of drawing an outcome. This will provide us with the opportunity to apply what we learn.
Success Criteria:
I have gained knowledge and skills in fundamental visual communication techniques and graphic design principles
I can free hand draw 2D shapes
I can freehand draw 3D shapes
I can render my drawing
Activities:
- Introduction to DVC
- Free Hand Drawing Techniques - 2D @ 3D
Introduction:Visual Communication is developing your visual literacy so you can communicate and present your design ideas effectively.
The tool that differentiates humans from other animals is language; without language we cannot think, talk, draw or write. Language allows us to communicate ideas. In this course you will be developing your drawing skills to better enable you to communicate ideas.It is not about the quality, type or method of drawing, but about whether the drawing is effective in meeting the needs of the drawer.
Freehand drawing, sketching, visual roughs, and thumbnails are all names for drawings that share the common purpose of explaining or representing ideas. Drawing can also be used as a thinking tool by drawing thoughts and ideas on paper to solve problems or to generate more ideas.
A builder on a work-site will draw a quick freehand drawing on a wood off-cut to show how to construct an element of the building. An architect may use a computer-aided design (CAD) program to draw a house to scale to show that it meets the building regulations for site coverage; both are effective, just as both freehand and instrumental drawings are effective when their advantages and disadvantages are understood.
