INTRODUCTION TO DESIGN AND IMAGE MAKING

This course provides an exploration into digital image creation and manipulation. This is an introductory course with no prior design experience necessary. Students will learn and explore the elements and principles of design and the design process. Computer design software (rastor and vector) will be introduced and explored. Students will experience the studio process of creating digital art and design (meeting them at their own level), explore relevant software, use cameras to generate their own imagery, manipulate images, and learn about composition, printing and presenting their work.
