3.00 Credits
- 3 credits This course explores Photoshop possibilities for printing and computer graphics, showing the preparation of images for publishing (print and the world wide web), advertising, multimedia and broadcasting. It presents principles for effective graphical design and composition of still and moving images for several software applications, such as 3D Studio Max, Premiere, Flash, Director and others. Prerequisites: CSC110, DSG110
-
3.00 Credits
- 3 credits This course will cover Photoshop design tools and techniques, image capturing, selection and manipulation. It will concentrate on designing with type, creation of logos and animated banners and special visual effects (glows, masks and drop shadows) with special focus on design for the world wide web. Students will also learn image optimization for quick web images upload, gif animation, and creation of 3D animated logos for the web through current bandwidth - 56k, T1 and DSL. The course will feature lectures with hands-on demonstrations, screening and analysis of samples. Students will be required to complete several assignments and a final project. Given the intensive nature of this course, basic knowledge of Photoshop techniques will be helpful. Prerequisite: DSG245

3.00 Credits
- 3 credits This course includes the concept and development of story telling through storyboards. Intoduction to character design, expressions, motion, styles by drawing on paper, then scanning to computer. Students must complete a storyboard for future modeling and animation classes. Prerequisite: DSG110
-
3.00 Credits
- 3 credits This course covers 3D design using 3D Studio Max software. Topics include the main tools: 3D geometric primitives, Boolean objects, morphing techniques and the materials editor. With the use of camera placements, lighting techniques and surface materials, students will create artistically rendered and photorealistic 3D scenes. Introduction to beginning animation techniques will also be covered. Prerequisite: CDE120
