Session 2 notes on creative histories and industries

In this session our first task was to define our chosen specialism individually and then discuss in small groups our feelings. We had 10 minutes to do this. I said my specialism is very much about imagination and being creative.

We looked at the history of photography, fine arts fashion design and graphic design.

We looked at quite a few images to do with fashion. We looked at how fashion gives a certain image. For this week our task is to keep a record of all the things we encounter in 24 hours.

We looked at visual communication and semiotics. How meanings are constructed and the meanings.
