8 Student projects

This team project by students of the HSE Art and Design School visually presents the cycle of short stories Angel of Things written by Moscow author Yanina Vishnevskaya.

Oleg Paschenko, curator of the digital product design course at HSE Art and Design School: “My students use Readymag to make longreads with animation and special effects as well as for interactive visual narratives based on literary texts. In the past, anyone who wanted to do net-art had to immerse themselves in the study of HTML/JS or Flash technology and learn to write code. Readymag makes the task much easier.”

This is visual study prepared by a first-year design student from the Moscow Polytechnical University. The work explores the secrets of a perfect packaging.

Timur Burbaev, curator of the industrial design course at Moscow Polytechnical University: “I teach a course in industrial design to first-year design students. All the presentations that the young people do during the course are made with Readymag. First of all, the tools is simple; my students manage it easily. Second, Readymag gives those young people who’ve never worked in graphic design a very good introduction to the nature of fonts, grids and composition. I also teach my students to present their product and project in an interactive way, and Readymag perfectly fits this task. Every end-of-term project finishes with the students doing a promo page made with Readymag, which allows the young designers to see—beyond the form of the product itself—the importance of color, graphics, fonts, sound and animation in visual communications.”
