<p>In this exciting KS3 Graphic Design project, students will have the opportunity to create their very own festival tote bag design, exploring a range of essential graphic design principles along the way. From selecting a main theme and subthemes to experimenting with pattern making, typography, and layout, this project provides a hands-on experience of the creative process. Students will learn how to organise their designs with hierarchy and balance, ensuring their work is both visually striking and functional. Using Photoshop, they will gain valuable skills in digital design techniques, bringing their unique festival-inspired visions to life on a practical, real-world canvas. The project includes a comprehensive booklet, a PowerPoint presentation, and a Scheme of Learning outline to guide students through each step of the process, ensuring they gain a solid understanding of the key concepts. This project is not only a chance to express creativity but also to develop the technical expertise needed for a future in graphic design.</p>
