Computer Illustration

Catalog description

In this course, students use a vector-based computer drawing program as a visual thinking tool, with experimental approaches to a variety of applied illustration problems. The focus is on conceptualizing and executing illustrative designs appropriate to a number of media formats (advertising, editorial, informational). Students are encouraged to use innovation while honing skills in conceptualization, technique, design and presentation of computer illustrations. Projects completed in this course add significantly to the student designer’s portfolio.
