Presentation
UC Illustration II is about the ability of images to show stories when texts are missing. The intention is to know how to illustrate without using words. This challenge allows students to understand the power of images and the power of illustration in the creative industries. For this understanding, the exercises allow to create situations where the students' illustrations circulate outside the classroom context, through their integration in Projects and actions of relationship with the community inside and outside the academic context.

Teaching methodologies
Teaching methodologies
This course unit includes three exercises, each with its own approach and objectives: The first exercise focuses on a route chosen by the student-it presents a sequence of locations intended to make up that route. This sequence must be based on an initial extensive photographic survey, which serves as the foundation for the final illustrations. The second exercise focuses on the theme of the year: "FREEDOM." Each student must propose their own illustrations following a group discussion on what the proposed theme might entail, striving to avoid stereotypical and predictable images. In the third exercise, the ecphrastic method is applied to create a set of illustrations that form a visual narrative without including text. All guidance is provided through tutorials and takes place in the classroom, with group discussions about the work produced, as well as peer and self-assessment. Examples are presented in accordance with the objectives of each exercise.
