Creative Sparks Fly at Top Design!
Our senior VCE Visual Communication Design students wrapped up Term 1 with a jam-packed creative day out in Melbourne as part of the VCE Season of Excellence!
🖼 First stop: Top Design at Melbourne Museum, where students explored outstanding VCE folios across Media, Product Design, Systems Engineering, Theatre Studies, and Visual Comm. Ideas were flowing, cameras snapping, and conversations buzzing as they examined the process behind some seriously impressive work.
🎥 Then onto ACMI, where students explored the permanent History of the Moving Image exhibition—seeing how professional designers and filmmakers express their creative vision through time.
🏛 After lunch, the adventure continued at NGV International, with a guided lecture on the Gestalt Principles of Visual Perception, using artworks dating back hundreds of years. A powerful reminder of how visual language can transcend time—especially relevant in an age of rapid social and technological change.
Our Year 11 students are already channelling these experiences into their own human-centred design work. What a way to end the term! 👏
📍 Top Design is running now at Melbourne Museum until 13 July. Don’t miss it!
