Learning outcomes of the course unit

The fundamental mission of the Graphic Design and Photography 2 course is an effort to motivate students to create tangible results of their creations. Students not only expand their knowledge of graphics software but also are introduced to diverse formats which may be used for their presentations, and as well another medium for communication. The result of instruction is to be an ability to apply their own artistic language in the creation of a useful commission, often connected with gallery operations, for example. A culture poster is considered to be an anachronism. However, it remains an applicable medium for communication with the public. An important expressive aspect of this is the synthesis of visual layers with text communications.

Mode of study

Instruction is through individual consultations, presentations of examples and explications of work in the program.

Prerequisites and co-requisites

Completion of Graphic Design and Photography 1 is required.

Course contents
