Lesson 6 Gift Bag

LESSON 6 GIFT BAG

NOTE: THERE ARE TWO PARTS TO THIS 1. THE OUTLINE NET and 2. THE FINAL COLOURED DESIGN.

Before you ask your teacher for feedback make sure that you have acted upon everything in the following checklist.  

When you have completed this element move on and complete other jobs that you haven't done.

INTRODUCTION

The assembled gift bag must be 3D – having sides and a base. The design must use a single net which folds to make the bag.

2D net

Students may find it helpful to collect and ‘unpick’ different types of gift bag to enable them to choose a suitable design.

The net must be produced using only VECTOR tools and show dimensions and scale. The drawing should clearly indicate folds, cut lines and areas to be glued. A key to line types could be used.

The surface design must be created using BITMAP tools and include a visual link to the clothing item (in addition to the logo).

Finished bag

Students must produce photographs to show what the bag will look like when it is assembled. One of these will be used in the digital advert.

They should print and assemble their finished 2D design and then photograph the 3D bag from different angles.

It is not essential to print the bag on card - ordinary printer paper should allow students to make up bags which will withstand minimal use. The priority is to ensure that the bag actually works. 

GIFT BAG CHECKLIST
