Digital Design

This semester in Digital Design, students spent their time learning Photoshop while incorporating  new design principles, growing in their creativity, and experimenting with different tools and effects . Photoshop projects included dream collages, hybrid animals, instagram ads, typography objects, posters, photoshop paintings, multiple you's, typography, and a wide range of other exercises.  And keep in mind, Photoshop is an extremely intricate and complicated program to learn and while cohorts only allowed us 1 hour each week to go over tools or solve problems, I was so impressed with how well they were all able to take the presented content and apply it to each of their projects at home  throughout the semester to create some amazing pieces.  

We hope you enjoy their incredible work!
