COMD1100SPRING2017

This hands-on mixed media course ex­plores the basic prin­ci­ples of de­sign and de­vel­ops flu­ency in the vi­sual lex­i­con. We ex­plore two-di­men­sional de­sign and color the­ory and graphic com­mu­ni­ca­tion through the un­der­stand­ing of the el­e­ments and prin­ci­ples of de­sign, as well as the de­sign process, in­clud­ing idea de­vel­op­ment through final ex­e­cu­tion. We will de­velop fun­da­men­tal skills in two-di­men­sional de­sign, color and con­tent cre­ation while em­ploy­ing the de­sign process of re­search, sketch­ing and ex­per­i­men­ta­tion.

The study and use of graphic com­mu­ni­ca­tion tools through un­der­stand­ing graphic el­e­ments and prin­ci­ples geared to the de­vel­op­ment of sen­si­tiv­ity to the na­ture of graphic re­la­tion­ships and their con­trol within a given frame­work. Find­ing so­lu­tions to prob­lems of ab­stract, con­cep­tual, ex­pres­sive and ap­plied char­ac­ter, with in­creas­ing aware­ness of the range of prop­er­ties of black and white and color. Iden­ti­fy­ing the char­ac­ter­is­tics, phys­i­cal prop­er­ties and psy­cho­log­i­cal ef­fects of black and white and of color for vi­sual ex­pres­sion and prac­ti­cal graphic ap­pli­ca­tion. photo credit: NASA
