Learning outcomes of the course unit
Students are already equipped with some experience from previous years in the course Graphic Design and Photography 3. They know the software and know the basic rules of graphic design. The main focus of the seminar therefore aims to find an adequate form in relation to the chosen topic, using elementary material possibilities. The purpose of such an assignment is the usability of the outputs to articulate one's own attitudes. At the same time, some restrictions can become enrichment. When using the cheapest reproduction technology, one has to think even more when choosing material, editing photos, finding a clever binding solution, or interesting sheet folding.
Mode of study
Teaching in the seminar takes the form of individual consultations, presentation of examples and explanation of work in the software.
