This course provides an in-depth study into the page layout - the arrangement of text and images on both printed and digital pages - as a primary tool used by graphic designers to communicate messages in a compelling and memorable way. The emergence of new media, from the Web to interactive eBooks, smartphones, and the iPad, has fundamentally changed the nature of page layout. While fitting static content on a finite page used to be a primary challenge for print layouts, today the task demands that designers incorporate scrolling Web pages, interactivity, sound, animation, movies, slide shows, and other elements that produce multiple dimensions and unlimited depth for a single page.

0.00 - 3.00 Credits
An in-depth study of commercial printing applications focusing on the lithographic process incorporating line and halftone reproduction of graphic elements. Assigned projects require students to gain an understanding of the operations of a lithographic press through hands on activities and simulator exercises to reinforce lecture presentations. Production workflow is analyzed and evaluated through class projects. Substrates and inks are studied to show the effect on specific projects,

0.00 - 3.00 Credits
This course defines and analyzes the process of screen printing, pad transfer printing, printed electronics and other specialty printing processes. It is an introduction to the various specialty printing applications. Student designed activities are supported by exercises that provide quality and control for the printing process. Emphasis of the course is centered on establishing repeatability of the printing process by controlling variables; digital design and imaging; single and multiple color image design, conversion and transfer; manual and semi-automatic presswork; printing applications of simple and complex close register line images.
-
0.00 - 3.00 Credits
This course explores digital video from the inception of an idea to the delivery of the finished video. Students will develop and use their understanding of video concepts, storytelling, camera use, video editing, and exporting to create videos for the Internet, multimedia presentations and video broadcasts. Source footage comes from photos, previously shot footage, or footage shot using the University's equipment or the student's camera and is edited on cross platform systems using commercial video editing software.
-
0.00 - 3.00 Credits
This course provides an in-depth study of the processes and techniques involved in the printing and converting of packaging and labeling materials. Laboratory applications include the design, preparation and flexographic printing and converting of various paper, foil and plastic substrates. Emphasis is placed on establishing repeatability of the printing process by controlling variables. Methods and techniques of quality assurance are implemented as an integral part in the production of flexographic printed products.
-
0.00 - 3.00 Credits
This course examines web publishing and what makes an accomplished web designer. Students will design, develop, evaluate, and validate web pages that include HTML language syntax and incorporate elements such as animations, sounds, and video. Students will learn in depth HTML syntax and apply CSS to a webpages layout and style.
-
0.00 - 3.00 Credits
This course deals with the use of computers to create and animate three-dimensional appearing objects. Topics will include production strategies, basic modeling concepts, rendering, lighting, virtual cameras, and animation. Students will learn the fundamentals in the classroom and apply them in laboratory activities.
-
3.00 Credits
A critical examination of the operations involved in the production of commercially printed products for the purpose of determining costs of the operations. The procedures necessary to assemble this information to produce estimates of typical printing matter and digital media elements are discussed. The identification and study of cost centers as they relate to the hourly costs and ultimately to the selling price are examined. Students are required to prepare a number of cost estimates for the course.
