The Digital Media course intent is to use representational tools and methods in programs to help express their design skills. Students are exposed to visual communicative strategies using a range of media; such as analog and digital drawings, and graphics to support each stage of the design process.
The first stage of this course introduces a general knowledge about images made of pixels; type, size, resolution and all of the basic informioatn required to be proficient with the programs and graphics in genearl. The second stage focuses on the use of Adobe Photoshop thru a series of exercises aimed at using tools to manipulate images and create collages. Students work with a set of given actions involved with reiteration, transformation, editing, and layering. The history of all elements must be documented graphically. The third stage explores vectors and geometries that emerge into a digital crystal or art through a series of analog computational devices and detail process drawings. Students will intergrate most feature of Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, and AutoCAD and Rhino.
In the final stage, students will produce a portfolio of their collective work within the course. They will understand the process of developing and production of a portfolio through layouts, pages, layers, graphics, and more. This course encourages the student to create a portfolio early on before entering their intensive studios. .
