After a few days off after the hand in of unit 3 we started the new week with our brief for the next unit. The unit will run alongside unit 4 - contextual studies. It seems like the unit will be very full but a lot to look forward to including making a hobbit shirt and designing for the night circus. I want to aim to stay on top of work this unit as much as possible especially as there is two units running at once. We have our presentation for contextual studies tomorrow so I am prepping for that this evening.
Our dye room induction was also today and so enjoyable! We printed on fabric using binder which I hadn’t done before as well as breaking down the fabric which involved using various materials to distress the fabric. We will be going this for the hobbit shirt so it was a good way to learn some techniques before hand. Jess suggested we try to make them as accurate as possible so I was going to look into how garments are naturally distressed through time e.g worn knees, elbows etc.
