prerequisite
Knowledge
to recognize advanced and unconventional materials used in bookbinding and cover design and their shaping and characteristics, chosing from variety of known materials based on their specific characteristic to recall procedures modeling complex shapes specific forms and different types bookbinding by several different ways with accent on finding the most suitable solution, basic modeling in 3D programs to compare the results achieved on the given field of creation (both own and foreign), to draw consequences for this comparison on own work, to alter it and be opened for new approaches to bring together basic knowledge of supporting arts disciplines, mostly illustration, digital technologies and different types of design
Skills
to apply knowledge of basic common current and basic historical equipment of bookbinding wirkshop used for work with paper and other materials suitable for work with books and cover design, to apply the knowledge of basic 3D editors and programs to apply variety of methods of working with paper and advanced materials and its shaping, possibilities and ways of using those materials to show own creativity on generally assigned task, to show the will to find different artistic solutions, alter them and constructivelly evaluate to show ability of basic aesthetic evaluation related with cover design, bookbinding and basic elements of interior and spacial crations, to compare effect and relation of aesthetic and funciolan qualities and to take into consideration other demands given by the aim and product of creative process about project planning (technologic methods, conceptual analysis of given theme, sketching of final product,) individually and in a team using related disciplins to reproduce the advanced method of different kinds of book binding and spacial design
