Graphic Design Experience Industry Short Course

The Graphic Design Experience Industry Short Course introduces students to the essential skills required to fulfil a professional design brief. This course focuses on conceptual development and ideas. Students are encouraged to think laterally and develop work that demonstrates design skills that are both individual and distinctive. During the course, students will experiment with photography, collage and illustration whilst also developing and practising their presentation skills. The course covers a number of relevant topics including typography, branding, publishing, packaging, advertising, use of colour and type, logo design and image editing. By the end of the course, students will have improved their decision-making process and learnt how to present ideas and concepts effectively. They will finish the course with strong projects to add to a design portfolio that will show their visual thinking, individuality and skills.
