PAPER MODELLING
The first lecture in the Explore Creativity Module FT1500 was learning how to take 2D materials to produce innovative , creative pattern pieces to create a 3D garment that flowed easily around the human form, which then can be transitioned back to 2D to 3D again.
This consisted of wrapping a mannequin in spot and cross pattern paper and covering it in cellotape to form a 'second skin' of which we could then draw our pattern onto easily. The idea was to produce new seams and not reproduce traditional lines.
In our groups of 4 we added notches to both the front and back, adding one notch to the front and two to the back to help them to be realigned easier later on. We then cut them off the mannequin, turning them back into 2D pieces and translated them onto seperate paper.
When putting the pieces back together we decided to create a new shape from the original, i found this whole process very useful as i have never designed or even worked with patterns.
