In barely a decade, the microchip has bestowed a multitude of inexpensive animation programs on those who work as graphic designers in television. This course examines the basic elements of design as they are related to television graphics. Course evaluation is based on how effectively the program has been implemented in the context of the sixty-second spot. Knowledge of Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop is recommended. Mr. J. Korf.
Class structure includes instruction about safety, adhesives, paint techniques, and costuming.
