About the Event
This Skills Update will help you to take your garment flats to the next level! Whether you are creating technical CADs or design flats; accurate proportion, depth and movement are key to getting across your ideas.
Have you ever added print or texture to your CADs and they just look flat and all the detail has disappeared? Or maybe sent a design to get made and when it comes back you realise that maybe your CAD wasn't true to what you envisioned?... well I can tell you that with some minor tweaks and simple techniques we can transform your garment flats into a thing of accurate beauty!Â
At CAD for Fashio all our tutors are designers as well as lecturers, so we use and teach the software every day. This means that over the years we have developed, collected, stumbled across and researched the best tools and shortcuts to make your lives easier.Â
"We want to make the software part easy so that you can get back to thinking about the design!"
You will come away from this event with a huge amount of time-saving tips and tricks for both fashion and textile design. As always this will be followed by an opportunity for a Q&A with our experts and we will be recording the session so you can rewatch at your own pace too. The video will be available for a limited time following the event.
Just sit back, watch, and take a few notes ready for when you want to give it a go yourself alongside the recording!
By grabbing your ticket you also join a network of like-minded designers and creatives who are all ready and willing to share their knowledge too. You will be invited to a dedicated group (here, not FB!) where you can ask questions, share tips and tricks or just say 'Hi 👋🏻'
