DSGN 1255: Graphic Design Software Fundamentals

Students create and work with images using Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop. They explore basic concepts, methods, tools, and techniques for each application and create vector-based materials, including signs, symbols, icons, drawings and illustrations, in black-and-white, spot, and full colour. Students also learn how to adjust and prepare raster images for various uses and determine when to use illustration software or photo-editing software.

Students will receive credit for only one of DDSN 1255 or DSGN 1255.
