Programme Synopsis Toy-making is a form of product design and students will apply careful consideration and critical thinking to produce their individual figurines. This workshop first leads students through character design to introduce them to the creative process and reveal the systematic planning and design skills required. Early lessons place emphasis on the importance of two-dimensional sketch techniques to visualise ideas, and later sessions allow for the application of problem-solving design methods to create the final product. Through working with the modelling clay, students actively learn form control and fine motor skills as they conceptualise the three-dimensional forms of their toys
