Showreel and Design Process Case Study Resources

Katharine Willis developed a showreel for the project which gives examples of some of her studio's proposals and completed projects. This is a valuable resource which could be used to demonstrate to students the work of an artist working in a commercial or public art context. Katherine's work is an example of a design company making art in a real business context. In many ways the work of her studio represents the future, a combination of the roles of artist, designer, architect and urban planner making public art for play and contemplation.

Often working in competitive situations, projects need to be creatively conceived, developed, costed and then presented to clients. ICT is not only important in the control of the work itself but often in the form of simulations - computer animations - which are used to pitch the ideas to clients and win the commission.

She also developed a design process case study presentation showing elements of the design process of the Pixel Wall that Jason Bruges Studio designed for the T-Mobile Headquarters. This shows a 3D virtual model of the installation, a sketch animation used to present the design to the client, scale drawings used in the manufacture of the component, CAD models of the components and multiple components and finally, a 3D animated model.
