Basics Blog Post #2

Postcard set all about lines, patterns, and bodies

Author: Henrike Uthe

Basics Blog Post #2 is now available: A curated selection of works from last years basic studies is published by UdK Verlag. Exploring essential design components such as lines, patterns and bodies the high-quality postcard set includes ten motifs from past semester projects. Its associated appearance and social media motion graphic were designed by students of the Visual Communications basic course. The postcard sets are now available from UdK Verlag. This project was initiated and implemented by the Basics Blog editorial team.

The four-year BA course in Visual Communication starts with getting to know the basic graphical know-how. In the first and second semester, students deal with elementary questions and possibilities of design. The focus is on getting to know the different media and testing their design languages with digital and analogue tools. The fields of observation are image, moving image, space and interaction.  During the creative process, the students go through all phases of the design structures in an exemplary fashion—from research and concept to variant creation and production. The tasks are formulated anew for each class. The results are recorded on the Basics Blog Post and you can now get a postcard of selected works in the UdK-Laden.
