Learning outcomes

The basic mission of the Graphic Design and Photography 2 seminar is to motivate students to further develop their own graphic design skills and ability to present photographs through an original catalogue. The purpose here is not only to continue to deepen their knowledge of graphics software, but also to introduce them to a variety of graphic strategies that they can then use to present themselves or articulate other artistic messages. As a result of the training, they should be able to apply their own artistic language to the realisation of applied commissions, often associated with, for example, gallery operations.
