What is the basic course of modeling?

Fundamentals of Modeling is a book published by Higher Education Press in 2000. The writer is Lin Jianqun. From plane to three-dimensional form, from whole to part, from representation to spiritual connotation, from realism to distorted color change, from spatial latitude to image expression, this book systematically expounds the basic expression language in design, and trains observation methods and thinking modes throughout.

The main courses of modeling foundation are sketch and color. Pan, president of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, believes that the purpose of sketch teaching is to cultivate a visual ability to grasp the outside world, that is, modeling ability; Color course is to cultivate the ability to grasp the external world visually from the color aspect.

With the development of science and technology, the influence of science and technology on traditional basic teaching can not be ignored.

Roger Mandel, former dean of the Rhode Island School of Design in the United States, said: "Basic teaching should deal with all kinds of new media and technologies that are emerging at present. Nowadays, it has become a part of students' daily life to learn through computers and communicate and entertain with iPad and iPhone. Our basic teaching must adapt to this reality. "

Karen Voss, deputy dean of Minneapolis College of Art and Design, said that in addition to basic courses, design students must also study media courses such as 2D and 3D. How to balance traditional skills and contemporary art in the curriculum is really a problem.

Our experience is that media courses actually contain many parts of self-expression. For example, if students make a movie title about "a polluted world", they can cooperate with publishing houses and film companies to understand the theme, significance, problems and expression purposes, and then add videos, sounds and related text content.
