How does the interactive design portfolio of art study abroad go from research to creation of a scheme? What needs to be prepared? Pay attention to those? Interactive design is a popular major that is being paid attention to, but there are still relatively few art students in China, so you must be prepared before applying for study abroad in interactive design! However, although there are fewer compatriots, this will be very beneficial to your language training, and you will "have to" communicate and cooperate with students from all over the world.

Interaction design is a major based on practice. In most of your study time, you need to go to the laboratory to do experiments, testing, installation and debugging. However, you also need to work out your design elements in the computer room. In a word, this is a very interesting profession. We should not only use computers to design, but also make models and objects, and even go for a ride to find inspiration.

Another point is that it is a creative profession, as long as you have ideas, you can do it boldly. There is no such thing as an exam or a good or bad exam. The teacher will help students evaluate and give suggestions on each student's creativity.

After a few years of college life, you will learn many subjects, such as art, electronics, IT and other elements, which will make you knowledgeable. Hehe, that's what everyone says about me! In addition, you will also learn how to implement your ideas.

Teacher Wei has been studying in Australia for five years since 2004. After returning to China, he has worked as an interactive media designer in several design companies, responsible for the design and development of interactive images, new media devices and interactive systems, including Samsung intelligent education interaction system and intelligent electronic book bag interaction system. He has served as a HND bilingual teacher in Capital Normal University and Beijing International Studies University, and published many 3D production tutorials in 3D China magazine. 100 students have been successfully tutored into Parsons, Carnegie Mellon, ACCD, SVA, Rochester Technology, NYU, Sydney University London University of the Arts And other famous schools, and all the students they tutored won generous scholarships.

　　 Teacher Wei's advice on tutoring the interactive design portfolio to students:

　　 Career planning:

1. Students should prepare their own collection of art works for studying abroad, a collection of art works for studying abroad that will open the door to enterprises.

2. Students who intend to engage in user experience design and interaction design need to enhance their soft power, such as insight, logical thinking ability, expression ability, etc. Students who intend to engage in multimedia design need to constantly update their hard power, such as software use ability, programming ability, etc. Of course, no matter what kind of work you are engaged in, you need to broaden your knowledge. Complex talents are what enterprises need most, and they are more likely to become leaders in enterprises.

3. Cultivate your character. In an enterprise, everyone is a process of cooperation. People with high affinity are more likely to be concerned by enterprise leaders and become leaders. Of course, it depends on your work. However, character is the key factor that can most affect your life path besides knowledge and ability. Sometimes it is more important than your knowledge and ability. I hope you will attach importance to your character cultivation.

　　 Recommended creative courses for interaction design:

Creative Coding is a very interesting course and one that impressed me most. It is offered in many foreign schools. At the same time, this course is also a very important course in Computer Arts. It should be noted here that Computer Arts does not mean to use software such as PS/AI to draw pictures. Real Computer Arts means to create images by programming. Imagine that 30 years ago, there was no PS at all. At that time, digital artists created images through programming.

Therefore, Creative Coding is a course to teach students how to create graphics and images through programming. The main knowledge points in the course will involve editing basics, physics, mathematics and other knowledge. Take a simple example: x, y is a point, y=x * x is a curve, and array [] is a picture.

　　 Reasonably arrange the production of works collection and English learning time:

Generally speaking, the importance of art overseas works collection is greater than that of English. such as Go to Britain to study art The collection of works has passed. Most schools have language classes, and they can learn languages. Going to the United States is more serious. Some schools have language courses. If the collection of interaction design professional works is passed, students with insufficient English scores can finally enter the university through language courses. However, as more and more people choose to study in the arts, the competition becomes more and more fierce. Whether it is art collection or English, we should strengthen it. It is suggested that students take one year to prepare English for half a year and professional design works for half a year.
