2019 term 2: week 3: Project Time!

Advanced graphic design students have their proposals in, and most also have their project boards in.  We will start working on our term projects now.  The most important part, is keeping yourselves motivated, and using time productively, and I'm very impressed with what I see so far with this class!  We are going to have some awesome projects completed by the end of the term!

2019 term 2: week 2: Project planning

Advanced Graphic Design class has gotten started with their term by brainstorming ideas for their long-term projects.  Some early ideas include creating a video game, designing and printing a card game, creating a photo manipulation gallery, and more!  Some students have their early proposals in already!  We will finish up proposals and timelines next week, and will work on our project boards as well.  I like the ideas we have coming in class, and I'm excited to see the process of these projects being created!

2019 Term 2: Week 1: Welcome to Advanced Graphic Design

It's time for Advanced Graphic Design!  Students who have successfully completed digital media, and graphic design 1 can take this course.  This term, students will be working on a term-long project of their choice.  We will use the design process to put together a major project that students can take home and be proud of.  We will spend the first part of this week coming up with ideas of what we will do for our projects, and come up with a plan and schedule to follow for the term.  I'm looking forward to seeing everyone Monday!

2019 term 1: week 9: Creative Designs

Graphic Design is already almost over for the first term!  Wow.  Students are finishing up their photography elements work, and will be applying an environmental design to a photograph that they took.  We will then spend next week learning to edit and manipulate photographs in a variety of creative ways.  It's been a fun term with these classes, and students have really improved and gained a lot of skills!

2019 term 1: week 8: Layout & Environmental Design

Hard to believe we only have a few weeks left of the term!  I think I said that last week too.  It's still hard to believe!  Graphic design students have worked on some layout designs with magazine covers and movie posters.  Next week, we will be creating Bulldog POWER themed PBIS posters for the high school.  After that project, we will learn some elements of photography, and will apply those skills to an environmental design.
