This Art and design video shows learners how to turn sketches of their friends into imaginative characters for stories. They explore how illustrators exaggerate and simplify features, like eyes, noses, and expressions, to make characters more fun and memorable.

This Art and design video teaches learners how to use simple lines to show emotions on characters’ faces. They explore how changing the position of eyebrows, eyelids and mouths can suggest different expressions, like anger, surprise or tiredness.

This Art and design video explains how to show children how illustrators create memorable characters by exaggerating and simplifying features. Learners sketch a partner posing as a character from a familiar story, then develop their drawings into expressive comic-style illustrations.

This Art and design video explains how to teach children how to use simple lines to show emotions on characters’ faces. They explore how changing the position of eyebrows, eyelids and mouths can suggest different expressions like anger, surprise or tiredness.

This Art and design video encourages learners to practise painting smooth, flowing lines inspired by the shapes and movements of a rollercoaster. Learners develop the skills of mixing paint to the right consistency, loading a brush correctly and painting in long, continuous strokes.

This Art and design video explains how to support children in developing painting control and confidence by using the exciting theme of a roller coaster ride. Children learn how to load a paintbrush correctly and use smooth, flowing strokes to create dynamic lines that capture the twists and turns of a roller coaster track.

This Art and design video introduces pattern through printing with everyday objects. The activity encourages exploration of colour, shape and repetition to create unique designs.

This Art and design video explains how to introduce children to the formal element of pattern, encouraging them to explore repeating lines, shapes, tones and colours. Using simple objects like bottle tops and dowels, learners experiment with colour and form to create striking repeating patterns across four printed sheets.

This Art and design video guides learners in creating a three-dimensional drawing of a planet using shape, colour and tone. Using chalks and soft pastels to match colours and explore blending techniques, learners develop their understanding of how tone adds depth and form.
