| 1056130 | FASHION PHOTOGRAPHY [L-ART/06] [ITA] | 2nd | 1st | 12 |
Educational objectives The Fashion Photography course provides students with an in-depth and critical understanding of both the theoretical and practical processes behind the creation of a fashion editorial—from concept to final production—with a specific focus on editorial visual language and its application in the contemporary context of fashion magazines.
The initial part of the course is dedicated to the theoretical study of contemporary fashion photography, analyzing its main styles and key photographers, with a historical perspective beginning from the aesthetic revolution of the 1980s. This was when the first independent magazines such as i-D, The Face, and Dazed emerged, introducing new, more rebellious and anti-commercial visual narratives in contrast to the glossy mainstream culture of the time.
-Students also gain an understanding of how the editorial system works (both print and digital magazines), production dynamics, and the role of images in the visual and conceptual storytelling of fashion. Through theoretical lessons, fashion film analysis, moodboard studies, and real editorial case studies, the course fosters project autonomy and the ability to connect acquired skills with other disciplines such as fashion history, visual communication, design, semiotics, and visual culture.
-Students are guided through the planning and realization of a complete editorial, learning how to contact and coordinate the main collaborators involved in a fashion production (photographers, stylists, make-up artists, models, designers), thereby developing cross-disciplinary skills such as professional communication, creative judgment autonomy, and project management in real-world contexts.

| 1045192 | Theory and techniques of drawing [ICAR/17] [ITA] | 2nd | 2nd | 12 |
Educational objectives The course aims to provide knowledge and understanding of the methodological and critical aspects, applicable to the various disciplines that characterize its interdisciplinary aspect, modulated in relation to potential job opportunities in the fashion system; it proposes perspectives on the fashion supply chain, in all its macro-sectors, in which related projects are activated; it shows the variability of fields of interest; it enables the student to master the specific topics in order to use them and apply them in all fields of fashion-system while using the correct specific language. With the acquired knowledge, the student will be able to develop autonomous ability to connect the different disciplines in the various historical epochs and cultural contexts related to fashion, as well as to create correlations between the various macro sectors of fashion.

| Drawing 1 [ICAR/17] [ITA] | 2nd | 2nd | 6 |
Educational objectives The course aims to lead students to explore the principles behind visual representation,
focusing on both its hands-on and theoretical techniques to expand and structure creative
thinking. Students work with traditional and hybrid methods applied to fashion and
costume design, building the skills necessary to produce functional and imaginative
outcomes. The objective is to equip students with a diverse set of tools, enabling them to
independently develop, organize, and express their unique fashion projects. Active
involvement in all training activities is essential for students to meet the course objectives
and to create a personal and original ‘design output’. The programme combines theoretical
discussions with practical workshops and draws connections across various fields,
including fashion, design, art and architecture.
