Unit X options

Once the Unit X options had been released I started to zone in on the skills I had learnt in the previous projects, and what particular processes I enjoyed and wanted to expand on. I narrowed the options down to three; quilting, low tech hacking and digital collaborations. Although I enjoyed print, I was disappointed that there wasn't more than one option, and that it only focussed on designing for fashion. I also wanted to incorporate the digital technologies that I had been inducted on, and was keen to broaden my knowledge of the adobe creative suite.
I decided to take a chance, and I went with Low Tech Hacking. I made the decision based on wanting to challenge myself and also the new techniques I would learn.

When I received the brief, I was really happy with my decision, as it included lots of workshops. I want to learn how to incorporate projections, light and possibly movement into my work. Although within this unit I will be producing a final piece, I believe I will also be learning much more about digital processes.
