The Visual and Graphic Design module will include handouts and video recordings that will serve as an outline and summary of the online workshop. The handouts will focus on topics such as visual design and graphics, the UPLB branding, and use of editing software. Video recordings of the past CIMRC synchronous workshops will be uploaded to aid participants who are unable to attend the synchronous sessions.
At the end of the course, the participants are expected to:
Demonstrate knowledge of visual design and graphics by discussing basic design elements and principles;
Apply the 2017 UP Visual Identity Guide (VIG) in creating publication and communication materials; and
Produce VIG-compliant publication and communication materials using various editing software.
