All forms of works of art are the same. The source is tenable, the logic is not easily refuted, and the scheme can withstand scrutiny. Naturally, it can be called an outstanding work. This also corresponds to the focus of the art study abroad collection. The complete art study abroad collection contains multiple design projects. Each project has its own design logic and process, and it is not just the display of results. Every step from the idea to the landing is the key that we need to show to colleges and admissions officers. Today we are going to analyze in detail what a collection of works of art studying abroad that "can withstand scrutiny" should look like?

　　 Choose a collection of art works with depth and breadth for studying abroad

The first part actually includes two steps: selecting a theme and mining the depth and breadth of the theme.

The first is to choose themes. Overseas art schools attach importance to students' creativity and self-expression. Therefore, novel and special topics have advantages for applicants, but this does not mean that students can take the edge in pursuit of uniqueness.

For example, many students will deliberately choose some non mainstream, sub cultural or even extreme perspectives, such as regional culture, religion, politics, etc., and even many times students do not really understand and love these minority cultures.

In fact, I don't recommend this method of topic selection, because the choice of theme must be based on our own real resonance and direction of thinking, which will stimulate our original motivation to explore the depth of the project, and will also make the works give real appeal.

For the admissions officers, what kind of art works they enjoy studying abroad and what themes and projects will make them like? The answer must not be that it is small enough. The works that move people should be works with soul. The admissions officers can see the thinking and feelings of applicants from them.

On the contrary, for some seemingly common topics, if students can add their own views and evaluations through their own observation of phenomena and life, the more inspiration they can find, and at the same time, ensure the originality of the project.

The theme is determined, followed by mining Collection Theme The depth and breadth of this step is to carry out comprehensive research. We have introduced the research methods in detail in many articles in the past. In short, the focus and purpose of this step is to show the admissions officers the comprehensiveness and professionalism of their own thinking and bring them into our preset logical situation.

In the process of research, students need to be forward-looking and purposeful, make correct predictions for each step, conduct in-depth research on design conditions and potential according to the theme, and gradually collect design concepts in the process of research until the final design scheme is extended.

　　 The process of deepening creativity

After completing the research, we will basically determine the breadth of thinking of our works. Next, we need to transform these intangible emotions and materials into tangible design results, so we need to continue to find more inspiration and deepen the creative process through specific creative processes such as design experiments, material selection, color matching, etc.

In fact, the richness of the final presentation of the design results depends in large part on the continuous attempt and innovation at this stage. We need to remind you that this part of the attempt does not need to pursue the accuracy and preciseness of the results too much. The preset results will inevitably lead to the shackles of thinking. Creativity is contingent. We have an open mind, Only when you have the courage to try diversified creative means can you reap unexpected surprises.

Secondly, attractive works of art cannot be predicted from the beginning. The process of failure in the deepening stage, re experiment and finding the best design scheme through correction is also the focus of the portfolio assessment, which can let the admissions officer see our spirit of exploration and ability to find and research problems.

If you want to build a strong thinking logic in your work, you need to make it convincing according to the objective basis. That is to say, at every step of the design process, students should break through the past thinking constraints and actively think about the design concept, design thinking and design methods behind the project.

In fact, active learning is also the focus of our natural light teaching team. We hope not only to help students produce a collection of art works for studying abroad that can be applied to famous overseas schools, but also to cultivate students to be able to directly correspond to the design process and thinking mode of overseas art education. The two complement each other and can directly affect the future of students.

　　 Display of visualization results

In the previous steps, the students' thinking can be spread as far as possible, but the part of the final result presented should return to reality, because most of the works are displayed in a visual way, and between the review mode of the admissions officer, the time spent on each student's works is not too long.

Therefore, in order to attract the attention of the admissions officer and obtain valuable influence points, visual expression is also an important part of the creative process of the designer. The key point of this step is to make the layout design of the collection more perfectly present our design thinking and ideas.

First, we need to clarify each stage of the creation process of the art collection for studying abroad, and formulate a clear direction according to the development of clues. Let the admissions officer understand your work in a short time, and clear and logical is the basic requirement for the composition of the portfolio; Secondly, we need to take the initiative and the initiative, coordinate the logic of the collection of works and the organization of each project, so that the creation process can be fully displayed, and at the same time, the details and key points in the creation of his works can be magnified, so that the admissions officer can understand the creation process at the first time and grasp the design key points. Finally, the sense of rhythm of the works of art is very important. In order to leave a "aftertaste" in the works, the overall layout should not only reflect the unity of the style of the works, but also examine every detail from the perspective of personal style, so as to echo from the beginning to the end, with traces to follow.

The details determine the success or failure. The assessment of the collection of works of art studying abroad is all sided. Each project should show students' ability to think and solve problems, and can also have different characteristics and breakthroughs. What can withstand scrutiny is not only the works, but also the students themselves, who can be inspected by colleges and admissions officers in multiple dimensions, Reflect the potential and depth that can be excavated!
