Adobe Photoshop Illustrator and InDesign Short Course

The Adobe Photoshop Illustrator and InDesign Short Course introduces students to digital design using Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign. The course aims to show how seamlessly the 3 programs can work together. During the course, students gain an understanding of bitmap and vector graphics and learn when to use different image file formats. The course explores a variety of processes including design and layout, workspaces, tools and palettes, importing files and saving files for onscreen and print output. By the end of the course, students have an understanding of design principles, as well as the dynamics of composition and colour, and the technical issues surrounding print and web distribution.
