Internship in Advertising Graphic Design Assignment to field work/study situations of approximately eight to ten plus hours per week at a graphic arts-related internship site approved by the department internship director. Sites may be in areas such as advertising, printing, corporate communications or publishing. Students keep a log/journal to be shared in group seminars/discussions. Supervision is by faculty and by the job supervisor. Students will be required to keep a learning journal of their internship in the form of a blog using Openlab.
Advanced web design is a continuation of ADV2450 Web I, a prerequisite of this course. Students will study, in further detail, HTML and CSS to ensure that they have a solid foundation. It is assumed that students have a solid grasp of Photoshop and Illustrator, and understand the proper web design workflow. The course is focused on completing a web site, designing and building it, as well as writing all the content for the site. A portfolio site is not appropriate for the final project, and will not be acceptable. Search Engine Optimization, Analytics, and web marketing strategies will be reviewed, and implemented.

My Projects
For my Graphic Communication course I was required to find interesting type. Living in New York City you’d figure that would be a breeze but I found a lot of signage to very boring and all the same San Serif font. They lacked energy. I came across an image of Rick Ross in of all things Communication Arts magazine that totally captured my attention. The chosen type immediately made me think of Ross as it was very similar in design to the tattoos that adorn his entire upper torso.
