Shannon Belozerova’s Profile
Graphic Design
I am a graphic design student in my final year of school. I got into graphic design because I didn’t think fine art would give me much of a career. I also wanted a career that would allow me to do something I enjoyed while also traveling. I didn’t really know what graphic design was when I got into it, and was surprised to find a real liking and passion for it. Throughout my schooling, I have developed many skills such as logo design, publication design, UX UI design and so forth. Most importantly, I learned how to use graphic design as a way to solve problems, making me an asset to any company I am to work for in the future.
As I mentioned, I have a passion for fine art which unfortunately I don’t find much time for anymore, however I don’t totally mind because I do have graphic design now. Otherwise I’m interested in the unordinary, extraordinary and the whimsical. I have a strong desire to travel the world, and I’m hoping that that’s what my future holds for me. I love film, music and food. And exploring new cultures overall. I am opinionated and honest and I have goals that I am totally set on achieving.
My Courses
COMD Communication Design Internship Coordination Site
This site is designed to help you find fieldwork/study situations of approximately eight hours per week at an internship site approved by the Department Internship instructor such as an advertising agency, graphic design firm, corporate design office, publications art department, photography or illustration studio, TV or multimedia production company. Students will be required to keep a learning journal of their internship in the form of a blog using Openlab. A portion of the class will be devoted to presenting and sharing experiences with classmates. Students will learn how to assess their talents, update their resume, and promote themselves and their work through social networks. Students will be required to setup and maintain at least two social media networks such as: Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest. The instructors for this class are there as mentors if you have not yet found an internship before registering for the course. However, the instructors do not find an internship placement for you. It is your responsibility to find a position that fits your personal career path and help you transition to full time employment upon leaving the halls of CityTech. Ideally, you will use this site to find an internship the semester before taking the COMD 4900 class.

User Experience (UX) Design is an essential component in developing websites, applications, and any other type of product intended to be used by people. This course examines the leading concepts of user—centered design through readings, discussions and assignments. Practical concerns include evaluation of technology needed to create or maintain websites; and exploration of a step by step process for creating products using flow charts, content trees and schematics. Students will also gain an understanding of issues surrounding usability on the Web, knowledge management and Web strategy.

My Clubs
This club is open to all City Tech students, but was originally conceived for the students of the Advertising Design & Graphic Arts (ADGA) Department. We have formed to help bring traditional printmaking techniques back into the general awareness of our members in order to ground them more fully in the philosophy and heritage of graphic arts design and production. We work to offer informative lectures, presentations, exhibitions, demonstrations, and field trips for our students to explore all forms of printmaking, including but not limited to screenprint, relief, lithography, and intaglio.
