INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
Multimedia is an introductory course to the elements of art and principles of design. While designed to help foundationally build artistical skills and apply concepts physically through industry-leading software, Multimedia also teaches students creativity, independence, and self-expression.
Included Mediums:
Photoshop
Photoshop is a very useful tool that has the abilities to practically create anything within its restrictions as a platform. Specifically designed for dealing with photos (.png, .jpeg, etc), Photoshop does an phenomenal job at texturizing, layering, editing, and creating pictures.
Adobe Illustrator
Illustrator is the perfect platform for artistical design - being extremely powerful in the context of creating shapes, icons, logos, and more. Through tools like the pen tool, shape tool, and more, artists can create sophisticated and advanced work that can apply different concepts and meanings as taught through the class.
Adobe Illustrators color swatches - a fundamental part of coloring and overall design, taught in the first Semester of Multimedia.
Adobe Illustrators tools window - the most important and interactive part of Illustrator. Throughout the year, you're taught to use and create your own pieces of work - all stemming from this section!
Adobe Photoshops color and properties page - a crucial part in designing and changing specific elements.
