Learning outcomes
The aim of the studio is to give students a basic overview of computer graphics and the principles of graphic design work, rather than to train them as professional graphic designers. Students will learn how to work with a brand manual and acquire basic skills in raster and vector graphics, typesetting, and typographic rules. Work will be done using Affinity software. Based on the assignment, students will create a set of graphic outputs for a selected or original brand, such as a business card, flyer, poster, or social media banners.
