Description:

Digital Studio II introduces students to using the Macintosh computer as a tool for design, page layout, and production. Grid, document structure, pagination, and basic typographic hierarchy are explored, as well as the use of master pages, style sheets, libraries, layers, and color models in the construction of both single- and multiple-page documents. Technical considerations in the design and production process are presented, such as working with image files and preparing documents for successful output to print and PDF. Through lecture and critique, students develop an awareness of how design decisions impact the cost of production and distribution. Prerequisites: GRDS 300, GRDS 320; corequisite: GRDS 340.
