Drawing of Product (FSI-YKV)

Academic year 2018/2019
Supervisor: Ing. Dana Rubínová, Ph.D.  
Supervising institute: ÚK all courses guaranted by this institute
Teaching language: Czech
Aims of the course unit:
The aim of the subject is to develop drawing by a model with focus on industrial products with gradual increase in difficulty. The aim of the seminar is to support the ability of both realistic and schematic visual representation based on the expression of simple source unit and to improve the technique of drawing.
Learning outcomes and competences:
The subject allows students to work on their technique of drawing by representing real industrial products, which is essential for developing the ability to put down ideas on design in free-hand drawing.
Prerequisites:
The course is a follow-up to fundamentals of drawing, geometric objects drawing and still-life drawing. Elementary knowledge of the perspective drawing /including shadows and lights/ is assumed as well as the ability of applying it to the construction of drawing and experience with the drawing of still-life composed of objects with the different characters, materials and surfaces in a perspective view according to a model.
Course contents:
The course is focused on drawing objects in a perspective view. Managing this type of artwork is necessary for the first phase of the work of industrial designer. The work proceeds from an elementary sketch depicting the basic structure to a definitive representation of the product model. The correct method of capturing reality lies in the reduction of the object to basic geometric shapes.
Teaching methods and criteria:
Creative work in ateliers.
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes:
Graded course-unit credit requirements: Attendance at exercises, meeting assigned projects deadlines.
Resulting evaluation consists of evaluations on tasks (drawings). In total it will be possible to aquire 100 points. Resulting classification will be defined by the ECTS scale.
If some of the projects are awarded less than half of the maximum pts., final evaluation of the course is "failed".
According to the article No. 13 of Study and Examination Rules of Brno University of Technology ECTS evaluation degree scale is used. .
