ADVANCED COURSE
The Creative Illustration course aims to develop students’ capacity to interpret ideas through images, providing the best creative solution for the creation of imaginative illustrations. The student will be able to develop their own personal style by experimenting with different techniques.
Content
The work is based on concept ideas, and analyses the process of creating visual metaphors using different artistic media. The course is divided into two equally important parts:
a) Visualisation and analysis of important illustrations, learning to appreciate the theoretical and creative aspects of this artistic activity. Brainstorming sessions, and the creative use of inventive resources.
b) Practical work. How to create illustrations, beginning with the initial conceptualisation: from the idea (text, heading, slogan, opinion, article, etc.) to the sketch and, finally, to the illustrated image. The course culminates with the digitalisation of projects undertaken.
Who is it for?
Students of illustration, drawing, and visual arts who wish to develop and perfect their illustration technique.
