Product Design Sketching Activity
What Is Product Rendering
While thumb-nail sketching is very useful for us to think visually and generate ideas, it has its drawbacks Not telling us about ergonomics, manufacturability, construction,
etc. Small, not presentable Not usable for downstream works
An idea is a ‘pie in the sky’ unless it has been rendered Product rendering may be executed when
A ‘milestone’ record is preferred Visual summary is need to evaluate progress Time for idea generation is up
A Rendering Project
Stage 1 - Posing
Determine the best viewing angle and convergence
Fine-tune the proportion and alignment, mark the ‘hard-points’ and ‘hard-lines’ clearly
Ensure that the pose is usable for as many of the presentation views as possible, sometime the framework is drawn as an ‘exploded view’
Stage 2 – Form Giving
Generate various final forms, be creative while at the same time observe all the hard-points and hard-lines
Use thin pencil lines to outline the form, check that the voids and details are in good balance
Indentations and ribs are very useful for ‘balancing’ the form
Stage 3 - Projecting
Create a projection of your final form
Usually 2-3 views will fully define your form
Outline of human figure may be drawn to check ergonomics
Many design conflicts are discovered and resolved in this stage
Draw a final perspective view using the framework
Stage 4 - Rendering
Test the colour, lighting, and shadow position on a thumbnail first
Use pencil to trace the outline on the final sheet, photocopy may be used as template for quick presentation
Apply marker and pastel Outline with fine black
pen at last
Stage 5 - Diagramming
Use the perspective view as template, draw the operating procedure
Partial views may be used
