Wood Design Technology
Investigating & Designing: In design and technology, students combine practical and technological skills with creative thinking to design and make products that meet human needs. They learn to use current technologies and consider the impact of future technological developments. They learn to think creatively and intervene to improve the quality of life, solving problems as individuals and members of a team.
Producing: Students create a cutting list of quantities for their project and cost all components. Materials are ordered and acquired from various supplies. A plan or production is created and students work through the various stages of the construction.
Analysing & Evaluation: Throughout the production stage students analyse the methods they are using and make alterations where they may need to find an easier, safer or more appropriate method to complete a certain part of the construction.

2D & 3D Design
Welcome to 2D 3D Design!
You will be learning how to concept a scene in 2 dimensional (2D) form and model them into 3 dimensional (3D) assets.
You will be researching and designing a scene containing a character.
You will be writing loglines, creating written descriptions, and gathering reference images to help sketch your character and environment. You will then take these designs to block out and then model the scene using the 3D modelling software Maya.

Game Programming
You are to make a Third Person game using Unreal Engines Third Person Template.
Throughout the rest of this semester you will be designing and implementing parts to your game.
Students learn how to code in the game Engine. Looking at core coding concepts to prepare them for creating their game.
You will learn how to use flow charts and written language to break down elements of a games mechanics.
Students will have there games tested and reviewed by other students.
They will then make changes based on feedback to finally build a playable game with a user interface and game mechanics.
