Course contents :
 |
| This course addresses the relationship between the staging of a written text and its translation into space.
Presentations will analyse the different approaches employed by contemporary stage design in artistic exhibitions, dance, theatre, opera, cinema etc. in terms of their spatial exploration. This will enable students to broaden their approach to spatiality through using languages drawn from other artistic disciplines. By addressing references in this way, students will adopt an approach to artistic work and productions they encounter.
The workshop will make it possible for students to become familiar with and to test experimentation and research, particularly through the production of several three-dimensional models. These models will be developed in relation to a sequence which is initially chosen by the student from a range of suggestions.
Alongside this research, students will be able to develop different means of expressing and communicating their concept, with a view to developing this three-dimensional work. The aim is to achieve consistency between the artistic work or approach, its staging and its implementation.
Among the themes which occupy a central place in this teaching unit are:
The theme of transfer from an artistic discipline in terms of the issue of spatiality.
This is organised in the following way:
-Immersion in a given artistic domain and immediate, spontaneous graphic perceptions of it.
-Contextual presentation setting the parameters of the given exploratory field and offering a selection of tools and references ... Theoretical presentation.
- Framing an extract to be enlarged and developed.
- 3D composition to be developed and refined through thematic and evolving research
-Involvement of an artist involved in the approach (speaker)
-Suggesting a group setting which evolves alongside the stages of the presentation
-Finalising work and presenting it as a whole (individual and group) to a jury |

Learning outcomes of the course :
 |
| Part 1: Connection to the competency framework: all learning from DER 3 enables the student to develop specific competences in the Faculty's competency framework by guiding them more specifically towards developing the competences of 'instruction' and 'development'.
INSTRUCTING an architectural issue
DEVELOPING a spatial response
- Appropriate three-dimensional language as a tool for design, structure, verification and interpretation of thought.
- Develop an experimental approach.
- Dramatise space.
Part 2 : Learning outcomes of the teaching unit described from an operational point of view.
-
Recognise the various themes (tools) in relation to Space Writing 1.
-
Understand : complex concepts of composition.
-
Analyse : references collated in a list.
-
Transpose : concepts of composition of the discipline based on thematic three-dimensional research.
-
Assess : the work of expressing a simple concept through questioning the effectiveness of various proposals.
-
Create: an individual and synthetic formulation of an intention.

Prerequisites and co-requisites/ Recommended optional programme components :
 |
| To begin this teaching unit, students should have already acquired the following credits:
Block 1 :
- BARCH 0131-3 : Ecritures de l'espace 1
- BARCH 0133-2 : Construction graphique de l'espace 1
|
 |
Planned learning activities and teaching methods :
 |
| This is a practical course framed within thematic presentations.
A good understanding of French is required for this course.
This course involves working outside the class hours specified at the start of the academic year (by email to M1 students).
Students will develop coherent three-dimensional approaches which change successively throughout the course.
Classes will take the form of presentations, analyses and individual and group critiques. |
 |
Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning) :
 |
| In-class learning |
 |
Recommended or required readings :
 |
| A written publication (where appropriate) is requested and details were given at the start of the academic year (by email to M1 students) |
 |
Assessment methods and criteria :
 |
| Continuous assessment focussing on students' ability to develop a coherent approach.
The final assessment, in jury form, will focus on the three-dimensional project, in the form of a model.
Interim evaluations will look at the development of the three-dimensional spatial experiments. |
