Advanced Document Design

Catalog description

This course focuses on the principles of graphic design as well as theory and practice of multimodal composition to explore advanced techniques of layout/design, desktop publishing, and typesetting. By reconceiving print and digital texts as multimodal, we will read, analyze, and create products in a variety of contexts so that students may craft deliverables such as posters, flyers, cards, brochures, magazines, journals, books, and ebooks using word processing and layout/design software.
