Rani Smale Bachelor of Design student Rani Smale has always been interested in art, but it took a couple of false starts to get her into it as a career. “When I left school I started doing a general arts degree, but I fairly quickly worked out that that wasn’t for me. I worked for a while, and then went overseas to England and Europe for a couple of years. “When I came back in 1994 I enrolled in a degree in Tourism, but I found that it wasn’t creative enough. At that point I went for the big change in direction and decided to go with design. I had heard that the Swinburne course was a really good one, so I applied as a mature-age student – not really expecting to get in!” Rani, who is 29, started at Swinburne’s Prahran campus in 1996. “I’ve always been interested in the fine art side of design – drawing and illustration – and I was really pleased to find that that was a good part of the course. I’d hate to think that would ever be completely overtaken by the computer side.” “I did find it difficult to adapt to the computer side of the course at first – I didn’t feel my computer skills were up to scratch, and it’s great that Swinburne is now teaching computing to the first year design students. You need both, the computing and the fine art elements of design.” a big change in direction Bachelor of Design Rani has recently completed her IBL year in the design offices at the Walt Disney Company, a real coup as the company only takes one student a year. “Disney wanted someone who was interested in illustration, and I’ve been working on ideas for toys, games, clothing – anything that can be manufactured. “Doing IBL has been such a valuable experience – I’ve seen what actually goes on in the industry, and how design principles are applied. I’ll go back to Swinburne with quite a different perspective.” Rani completed her Honours year in 1999 as a full-time student. “I’ve had some really good teachers at Swinburne. Some of them are absolutely inspirational. The student group is quite a mixed bag, which makes it interesting!” Where does Rani see her design studies taking her? “For now I want to get some good industry experience, somewhere I can do illustration work. I might do some freelance for a while. In the really long term, I like the idea of having my own business.” 47
