Intro to Graphic Design: Exploring Non-Commercial Poster Design

Last semester the Graphic Design students learned the history and evolution of poster design.  Students were then challenged with designing and producing their own non-commercial poster  (supporting a cause or movement).  Students learned about color theory and mixing and were to complete these projects in a hard-edge painting style, with crisp edgeds and clean color transitions.  Students worked hard carefully mixing colors in order to maintain flat color within their designs.

Students in Three Dimensional Design began the year working with clay. The following projects were completed by creating a newspaper based form and draping clay slabs over the molds to create hollow bust sculptures. The students completed the work with acryllic paint and a lacquer spray.
