This course is designed to help students learn to use
the computer as a tool to express creativity. It's
objective is to discover how to get the computer to
accomplish what design dictates, not the other way
around. Computer skills will be developed by
learning how the software works then applying this
knowledge to a series of progressive design projects
created with the computer then assembled by hand.
Software utilized will be Adobe Illustrator and
Photoshop as well as QuarkXPress. Prerequisite:
Participants should be familiar with the Macintosh
operating system.
