The
convergence of technologies combining traditional approaches has opened up new
opportunities and contexts for illustrative content. This unit furthers your

screen based visual communication. This could encompass linear or non-linear
materials or interactivity. The unit builds upon skills developed earlier in
the course, with the aim that you will create a screen-based outcome developed
in response to a written Learning Agreement negotiated with your tutors.
Through
thematic project based work you will gain an understanding of the
considerations and constraints that developing contextual solutions for screen
present, and through discussion and analysis, you will gain an understanding of
the opportunities for employment available to the illustrator.
