Graphic designers create some of the most exciting images in the world today, from packaging to branding to websites. In this studio students express concepts graphically, create visual metaphors, and learn the fundamentals of type design, with equal emphasis on creativity and craft. They are encouraged to integrate photography, drawing, and various experimental processes into their projects.
The computer is an essential tool for designers, and students learn the basics of the Adobe software programs (Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign) that are used by all professional graphic designers, dividing their time between the design studio and the computer lab. One student per computer.
Graphic Design is an all-day studio.
