Aligned Industry Certification
Completion of Introduction to Graphic Design and recommendation from teacher
This Adobe Illustrator heavy course will be a continuation of the Introduction to Graphic Design course and will focus heavily on building Illustrator skills. Students will work to develop their personal style and work/design flow while completing creative projects that require critical thinking. Students will learn to communicate effectively and appropriately with clients through email and complete a design project for the school to use in real time. Students will also complete a personal brand project that includes designing a logo to represent themselves, an identity guide for their personal brand, a resume, business card, and a t-shirt design. All will be showcased in a presentation of their creation to outside stakeholders (admin, other staff, parents, etc). The International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme Design Cycle will also be utilized, and students will use it to demonstrate the design process. Students will complete an online portfolio showcasing the design projects they completed throughout the course as well as reflecting on them.
