This course is geared toward students interested in pursuing Graphic Design at the college or university level. 


Course Goals:

1) Demonstrate an understanding of what graphic design is.

2) Learn the design process and be able to successfully create a 2D design that displays conceptual thinking and understanding of design space. 

3. Learn the basics of typography and be able to understand the importance of it and its history. 


Unit 1 - Introduction to Graphic Design 

This will cover what a graphic designer actually is and how one can make a living being a graphic designer. Students will learn about line, thumbnail sketching, and comprehensive designing. 


Unit 2 - 2D Design Basics 

Students learn the fundamentals of two-dimensional design, the foundation of art, graphic design, and visual communication.


Unit 3 - Design Process -

Students will learn and practice the design process through a simple five-step plan. Designers practice the design process in order to find solutions to the visual problems they take on. Students will be able to identify each step in the design process, understand the importance of each step, and implement them. 


Unit 4 - Typography 

Students will be introduced to the power of words through typography. After a brief but important history of the alphabet, students learn to use typography as a communication tool—not only to make artful design, but to organize and communicate the meaning of an idea. Students will understand how type can be used to make text more readable and understandable and how it can organize content for ease of use and comprehension.

 

This class is a very hands-on and project heavy class! We do lots of in-class assignments and well as a variety of more in-depth projects that can be done over a few weeks at home.
