Design and Visual Communications
Design and Visual Communications touch every aspect of our lives, from the packaging of our products to a complex multi-media advertising campaign. Computer applications centered on page layout, electronic drawing, photo editing and digital media software applications are the cornerstone of this exciting and creative field. Artistic and technical skills are developed through the creation and presentation of graphic multimedia and drawing projects. These real-world projects are completed and delivered to clients both within and outside of the school. A rigorous Related Theory academic program covers employability, management and entrepreneurship skills.
