Sevastopol designer entered the semi-finals of the professional competition “Design Marathon”
CrimeaPRESS reports:
200 participants of the Design Marathon successfully qualified for the semi-finals of the professional competition. Of these, 104 people went to the Meganom Academy, where from October 24 to 29 they had the opportunity to undergo an intensive educational program and refine their projects under the mentorship of experts. Designers from 41 Russian regions were present at the face-to-face stage: representatives of Moscow and St. Petersburg, Siberia, the Urals, Central Russia, Crimea, the Far East, new Russian regions and other parts of the country. Participants who were unable to go to the face-to-face format received training online on the project platform.
Maria Kovalovskaya, a young designer and ambassador of the Tavrida art cluster in Crimea, came from Sevastopol to the workshop. Student of the Crimean Federal University named after. V.I. Vernadsky chose the direction of “graphic design”.
We worked very closely on our projects during the week of the workshop. The experts were with us at every stage and advised everything very competently. For the final pitching, I developed a draft of standard navigation icons for park areas. These are small schematic images that are needed so that a person can instantly read information and intuitively understand where he needs to go. These symbols are universal and very convenient, including for foreign tourists. I received good feedback on my project from experts. I hope to finalize it in the near future and make it to the finals. Overall, I really liked the workshop: despite the fact that we worked on individual projects, the guys tried to help and advise each othersaid the participant.
The program is divided into several areas: graphic design, digital design and environmental design. As part of the training, participants immersed themselves in the general specifics of state design, design of large and small cities, and became familiar with the procedure for conducting projects from idea to implementation. The key event of the on-site workshop was the pitching session, where designers were able to present their projects to experts and receive valuable feedback.
An in-person on-site workshop for participants in the “Design Marathon” project competition at the Meganom Academy was organized by the presidential platform “Russia — the Land of Opportunities” and the Senezh Management Workshop together with “Tavrida.ART”. The project is intended to become a driver in the formation of a new Russian design culture. The “Design Marathon” project is being implemented within the framework of the “Social Elevators for Everyone” program of the national project “Education”.
