MEDIA & INTERACTION DESIGN
Screen Design 2023
Studio project with Harry Bloch
Websites developed during a semester according to a recipe chosen by the students in the course of Screen Design of Harry Bloch, second year Bachelor Visual Communication.
Learning objectives
First year
1/4
-
Learn about programming with a targeted approach to JavaScript and get familiar with the graphic visualisation of mathematical and algorithmic logic.
-
Tackle the aesthetic, logical and conceptual issues related to the design of graphic interfaces and implement a dynamic graphic visual identity.
-
Acquire the necessary tools to produce a three-dimensional world in Cinema 4D (modelling, lighting, texturing, motion graphics and sequencing).
-
Design interactive three-dimensional spaces using Unity.
-
Immerse yourself incross-disciplinary courses in Photography, Graphic Design, Media & Interaction Design (website), 3D Animation (Cinema 4D) and 2D Animation (After Effects, Premiere).
-
Enhance your theoretical knowledge via courses in theory (History of Art, Photography, Film, Digital Culture, Industrial Design, Graphic Design, Media Theory, Project Management, Contemporary Photography, Exhibitions and Publications).
-
Take part in weeks of workshops supervised by practitioners from all over the world with the aim of carrying out collective or personal projects.
1/3
-
Design media andgraphic content linked to a project developed for one or more digital media incollaboration with Graphic Design students.
-
Develop a multi-screen/multi-player game implementing real-time interconnection.
-
Become familiar with the notion of network communication and learn about the bi-directional real-time server-client communication protocol, while understanding the issues related to the specific properties of different devices allowing network connections (JavaScript, Firebase).
-
Develop the notion of interface, codes and associated practices (screen layout, navigation in a content, hierarchisation and analysis of the usual metaphors of graphic interfaces via dedicated software (AdobeXD, InVision, Figma, etc.).
-
Tackle electronics and programming principles, particularly through the Arduino platform.
-
Se confronter à l’électronique et au principes de programmation au travers notamment de la plateforme Arduino
-
Deepen notions of modelling and file creation for machining and 3D printing (Autodesk Fusion 360, Cura, PreForm, etc.).
-
Broaden your horizons through practical cross-disciplinary courses within a sequence (videoclip or VR) or editing project (of your choice) in collaboration with Graphic Design and Media & Interaction Design students.
-
Enhance your knowledge through theory courses (Information & Communication, Global Visions).
-
Take part in weeks of workshops supervised by practitioners from all over the world with the aim of carrying out collective or personal projects.
1/4
-
Focus on contemporary technology (so-called “creative” machine learning) through targeted tools (ml5js, ml4a, JavaScript, possibly python, C++).
-
Widen your research and experimentation capacities by setting up a free project, in connection with the field, responding to a given subject.
-
Immerse yourself in cross-disciplinary courses to refine your collaborative skills in a transdisciplinary project (creation of a digital platform, including GraphicDesign, Media & Interaction Design and Photography).
-
Broaden your theoretical knowledge with courses in Copyright Law and preparation for writing a dissertation.
-
Take part in weeks of workshops supervised by practitioners from all over the world with the aim of carrying out collective or personal projects.
-
Write a dissertation based on the knowledge acquired during the course of study.
-
Put into practice the know-how acquired in a graduation work and a portfolio, which will serve as a business card to integrate into the labour market quickly or continue your studies on an MA course.
