Understanding
Throughout this module you learned the significance of Information Literacy to the design field and how to leverage this skill as a designer. In this week’s discussion post you also need to research and understand the importance of visual design trends like color, typography and layout for communicating with a specific audience. Now it is time to put what you learned to the test. For this week’s challenge you will research and choose a current visual design trend popular in one of the industries listed below:
Entertainment
Fashion
Music
Using what you have learned through your research and prior coursework, and what you know about trends in your chosen specializations, develop a creative project that demonstrates your knowledge of what’s up and coming in your specialization industry that focuses on your selected inspiration above .
For example: If your specialization is web design, you could design the home page for a band that’s popular with today’s trending music style. If your specialization is animation, you could create a dimensional fashion illustration or clothing model that focuses on current color trends in fashion. The choice of what you create is entirely up to you as long as it leverages your specialization software skills and focuses on one of the three supplied categories for today’s trends.
