A previous work example that I can look at is my work throughout High School Technical Graphics from years 9 – 12 which had a large focus on creative designs for houses and engineering projects. One of the main things I had to do was create displays to outline the many different areas of the product using Photoshop and Corel Draw. I believe that I can effectively use the knowledge I gained whilst creating these in my Final Projects creation in designing a visual aid using photoshop.
I also did a year long study of graphic design whilst at High School which outlined the basic techniques used when designing something, the effective use of colour, lighting, consistency, contrast were all discussed and were put to use with the work created. All these techniques are effective for my future work in design.
Last year I studied architecture and had to learn all about design processes and determining effective design from ineffective design through the use of the 5 Step Design Process which can be applied directly to any creative design profession.
