Principles of Digital Art
Unleash Your Creativity: Dive into Digital Art and Design Your Future!
This engaging course serves as an introduction to the vibrant realm of digital art, tailored for artistic students eager to expand their creative horizons. Participants will learn to digitize their traditional artwork and explore digital creation using 2D software such as Adobe Photoshop and 3D software like Blender. Throughout the course, students will begin building a comprehensive digital portfolio showcasing their artistic journey.
Once students have gained confidence in digital tools, they will be divided into design teams to embark on an exciting project: creating an advertising campaign for the various pathways offered at our Innovation Center. This collaborative effort will harness the team's creativity as they produce posters, storyboards, animations, or a combination of these mediums, showcasing their unique approach to advertising.
After establishing a productive workflow, students will form new design teams and take on a fresh challenge with the guidance of industry expert Lynn Eckart. They will seek out a local industry to create an impactful advertising campaign, allowing them to apply their skills in a real-world context.
By the end of the course, students will have a solid understanding of digital art principles, a diverse portfolio, and practical experience in collaborative design projects, preparing them for future endeavors in the digital art landscape.
