Welcome Students

Welcome students to COMD Digital Media Foundations! This class meets on Wednesday from 8:00-11:20 am.

Today we have our introductory class where we will learn about the beginning of digital media and the beginning of the requirements and projects for the next 15 weeks. I hope you find the class informative and interesting for the beginnings of your studies in Communication Design.

We have many documents to look at today. The most important one is the course syllabus.

There are other files that will be added soon. They can be found on Blackboard.

Let’s look at this and see how many we know.

We paired up and switched off being a designer and a client. The designer presented the brand he/she created for the client based on these questions:

  1. Where are you from?
  2. What brought you to Communications Design?
  3. What services, skills, talents can you provide the community?
  4. What tagline will help us remember this about you?
  5. The design of your personal brand logo.
