Learning outcomes

The basic mission of the Graphic Design and Photography 3 seminar is to motivate students to realize tangible outputs of their work. Not only do students deepen their knowledge of graphic software, but they are also introduced to a variety of formats that they can use both for their own presentation and as another medium of visual communication. As a result of the course, students should be able to apply their own visual language to the realisation of applied commissions, often associated with, for example, gallery operations. Although the cultural poster is considered an anachronism by some, it remains a valid medium for communicating with the public. An important expressive aspect of such output is the synthesis of the visual layer with the textual message.
