Aesthetic Awareness

Art of animation as an analysis of movement is based on the theory that the vision remains on the eye after the disappearance of the actual image, and this scientific theory is the same that the film industry was built upon. Recently, various techniques and ideas have entered the print design process as a means of expressing a phenomenon subject to the human will to change and elevate our aesthetic awareness and feelings, which rise in various forms of designs that reveal themselves in design work and are embodied in animation films. The design artwork falls within a group of intertwined elements fused with each other, reflecting the peculiarity of this work, as it is innovation and creating new and interesting things, so that the design is suitable for the desired purpose and beautifully. Perhaps the simplest type of optical illusion that can clarify to us the idea of the impression of the existence of an image that does not actually exist is represented in the decree paper.

The article deals with the search for a graphic style for the Kharkiv Art School for the 100th anniversary of Hudprom (the previous informal name of KSADA). Based on a study of Ukrainian font tradition, a visual image was found that links different generations of Kharkiv artists. The author of the article shows how the bridge between the Kubo-Futuristic finds of Kharkiv art-craftsmen Vasyl Yermilov, Borys Kosarev and modern design thinking was stretched in the development of inscriptions and signs. The features of working with typographic and aesthetic clusters to reveal the identity of time and place in graphic design are described. A variable font has been developed, combining both grotesque and avant-garde forms and more plastic historical graphemes based on cursive heritage. The flower of Kosarev, which has become a graphic image of the academy, simultaneously in different contexts and compositional solutions embodies the flourishing Ukrainian modernism (historical background), as well as represents the modern multimedia postmodernist pattern.

In this paper we outline the review and iterative refinement of assessment procedures in a final year graphic design subject at the University of Wollongong. Our aim is to represent the main issues in assessing graphic design work, and informed by the literature, particularly 'notions of creativity' (Cowdroy & de Graaff, 2005), to develop and incorporate assessment procedures that allow creative ability to be assessed with greater transparency and objectivity. In the first iteration we developed a structure to standardise and clarify the existing model for the subject. Once this structure was in place we identified issues that would benefit from a review of the literature on assessment in the creative disciplines and the broader field of pedagogy. We marked the shift from surface approaches to learning to deep approaches to learning (Moon, 1999) at the point where we identified gaps in the learning outcomes. Our response was to move the focus from the outcome to the process and to introduce a staged assessment procedure with a stronger emphasis on formalised reflection, cycling throughout the design process. We divided the learning process into two streams: thinking and making as a means to clarify facets of learning. As we continue to refine this model we note and respond to the relationship between assessment and learning. We propose ideas for future investigation, based on identifying levels of design thinking achieved by students in the most recent iteration of the program, and how these might be improved.

The Brain

Graphic design thinking is a key skill for landscape architects, but little is known about the links between the design process and brain activity. Based on Goel’s frontal lobe lateralization hypothesis (FLLH), we used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to scan the brain activity of 24 designers engaging in four design processes—viewing, copy drawing, preliminary ideas, and refinement—during graphic design thinking. The captured scans produced evidence of dramatic differences between brain activity when copying an existing graphic and when engaging in graphic design thinking. The results confirm that designs involving more graphic design thinking exhibit significantly more activity in the left prefrontal cortex. These findings illuminate the design process and suggest the possibility of developing specific activities or exercises to promote graphic design thinking in landscape architecture.

The research's main goal and motive is to help find way to improve graphic design education. Most design student use "process book", which includes written notes, research, drawings, as method of capturing and facilitating design thinking. This study poses the following research questions: What role does the process book practice to design student and tutors? How the process book be used as an effective tool for student's cognition of graphic work and helpful tutorial tool for visual communication? Survey was proceeded on BA Graphic design students at design universities in Korea, how design process materials have been using and efficiency of design process book for an individual work, tutorial, or creative thinking and producing design outcome eventually.

This article analyses research related to graphic design in the field of education and gives an overview of multiple definitions given in specialized literature regarding graphic design and design research. Design research provides an important blueprint for many other areas of practical research in contemporary society. The methodology of graphic design is transferable – it can be utilized not only in graphic design as such, but also in other areas, including management, business, and marketing. This process has been facilitated by the development of an academic research base, including doctoral programs. Due to the insufficient number of works on graphic design, it is necessary to venture into the other areas, such as industrial design, architecture, and engineering, which have a larger number of studies in the field of education. To prove that graphic design can affect the educational environment, it is necessary to study the nature of design as project research and design process.

abstrakGraphic design is a visual communication that uses images to convey information or messages as effectively as possible. In graphic design, text is also considered as an image because it is the result of abstraction from symbols that can be spoken.Graphic design used in communication design and fine arts. Like other types of design, graphic design can refer to the process, design method, resulting product (design), the art of graphic design includes cognitive abilities and visual skills, including typography, illustration, photography, drawing, and layout. raphic design was originally applied to static media, such as books, magazines, brochures, etc. In addition, following the times, graphic design is also applied to electronic media which is commonly referred to as interactive design or multimedia design. The development of design thinking. Graphic design can be applied to any design environment including space.The role of graphic design in all areas of business is much needed. This can be evidenced by the many areas of business that utilize the expertise of graphic designers. The demands of promotional design that are increasingly common in today's business world require graphic designers to be able to develop their own interests in making products that are attractive to the public., To find out how much influence the world of work has on work.Through this proposal, I would like to submit a graphic design proposal to you, whether it is used for web pages, applications, company logos, posters, etc. or for other purposes. Compared to other professional design providers, the price is relatively competitive, but you can still get complete facilities and after-sales from us. We have given several advantages in design.

This case study details the methodologies we used to create a gamified library orientation experience through an iterative design process involving the phases of empathize, define, ideate, prototype, and test. For libraries with staff skilled in basic HTML and graphic design, gamified experiences are possible when they approach them with a design-thinking mindset. In designing the gamified orientation experience, we used a minimal amount of coding and conducted usability testing with playtesters prior to launch. We describe a sequence of issues we encountered during playtests, and we discuss remedies we took to balance storyline, content, educational objectives, and gameplay.
