Research class exercise
Name something you have researched in the past for art, design or media
Pattern making
Explain how you researched this
By looking on the web, visiting my mum's work and also by trying pattern making myself
What facts did you discover?
I discovered that there are 3 methods of pattern making which are drafting, draping and flat paper pattern making. Also pattern making today has become an easy job by the use of the computers. Different softwares are available in the market to meet the needs of the manufacturers. These softwares has made the job of the Pattern master easier. They have made the process of pattern making more economical and less time consuming.What NEW conclusions did you establish?
I found out that making patterns for clothing production is a skilled practice. The detail and technique behind each pattern ensure that garments are made to specification with a minimal margin of error. Once you’ve designed your clothing, your sketches will need to be turned into technical drawings before patterns can be created.
Good that you have explored pattern making in the past this will serve you well in the future in fashion design - you still need to add the rest of the work here though and you do need to really start on your research for your project this term as time is ticking!
ReplyDeleteYou mentioned that you did not yet know which software you wanted to use for your major project. Maybe it is an idea to do research about this so that you know how it works and how it should be done?
