Design and Visual Communications

Art Line of flowers on a vine

Instructor: Ms. Williams and Ms. Castner

Whether it's a logo, poster, webpage, magazine cover, or billboard the Visual (or Graphic) designer is the one to bring the initial idea to life.  The artistry of visual design can be seen everywhere.  For the student who sees the world of creativity as a career, this program is the place to begin.

The Design and Visual Communications Program provides training to students in all aspects of digital and visual communications.  Students will learn the basics of page layout and design, typography, digital photography, storyboarding, web design and animation.  they will learn to take an idea from concept to pre-flight, and understand the principles of prepress and outsourcing. 

Students have access to the latest industry standard Adobe and Macromedia software and develop practical skills that will translate into a solid foundation for employment and higher education.  They will not only develop techniques in marketing of the products they create, they will learn to market themselves.  All of which will require creativity, technology, communication skills and the ability to meet tight deadlines.

Graduates are able to find employment in advertising, desktop publishing, illustration, web design, animation, and other graphic related fields.  Many Graphic Communication students enter college to further their education.
