I'm So Mad I Made This Sign In an increasingly visual world understanding the constructions intertwining image and text are an essential skill. Graphic design explicitly engages these structures, and in this course we will explore its history and practice through the design of Posters. The poster format offers a variety of challenges for the beginning designer in its uses of direction, narrative, and illustration.  Central to the course will be the history and theory of poster design. Putting this history into practice, each student will choose their own topic, research it, and design their own poster. By term’s end each student will have their own 18”x24” poster to be displayed. With an MFA in Design, and a BS in Graphic Design, Sepi Alavi has been designing for 20 years./

Half adobe Illustrator tutorial, quarter in-design tutorial, and quarter presentations. The work is easily manageable, and you can really put in how much you want. Class periods are split between presenting and receiving feedback and then working on your projects and using the opportunity to ask questions about the Adobe programs we use. It was easy but gave me some very helpful Adobe skills and was one of the most useful ways to get an art credit.
