Unit Aim
The aim of this unit is to provide Learners with the knowledge, understanding and skills in digital media for designing exhibition spaces. Building on foundational knowledge, Learners explore customisation tools such as Shell, Morph and Loft to create complex design elements. The unit focuses on precision layer management, advanced 2D and 3D modelling and professional rendering techniques. Through studio-based projects and field visits, Learners develop practical expertise in digital design workflows, enhancing their ability to create immersive and functional exhibition environments.
