FDP feedback

FDP Feedback

On monday we were meant to receive our FDP feedback but they managed to miss mine so ive got to wait until Az is back in 3 weeks! im coming on quite well with my sportswear project, im really getting into it now. i need to develop my designs further, Az suggested using layout paper and to trace over each of my designs 5 times and then change, adapt and develop each design that way. i need to start doing some fabric research and also start to consider a colour palette. 

we were introduced to buying and merchandising on tuesday and we met jo our tutor for that unit. she seems really nice. she set us a new brief; we have to produce a magazine layout including our final design for the CDP project and include pieces we would style our garment with, its an almost identical brief to my A Level media studies final brief - which i loved doing, so im really looking forward to it. but the deadlines and work are really starting to pile up now!

NOT TO SELF: do not leave this to the last minute!!

We also had the Lectra LEcture this week. to be honest i was expecting it to be beyond boring. but it really wasn't. i used CAD/CAM when i was at school in woodwork - i hated it and was totally useless at it, in fact i manged ton break one of the machines back then. i was expecting her to tell us that CAD/CAM was used for cutting fancy shapes out of wood and plastic and that the modaris system was a new thing. but its way more than that!lol! its used quite extensively within the fashion industry, i particuarly like the £D model version where you can take your 2D patterns from modaris and turn them into a 3D model so you can see the fit and any changes you need to make, which cuts down on the amount of toiles needed! genius!

EDIT: 3 weeks later i received my mark and feedback for FDP. i got 70 for my overall mark which is quite good, and my feedback stated i need to look more into the history of the shakers movement and a note that flat drawings should only include style lines and not print - which had included on my  floral print jeans for the shakers project!
