Design Visualization
3 Credits
This course will provide an opportunity for students to develop and refine their conceptual and problem-solving abilities through illustration-driven design. Students will elevate and refine their ability to deliver ideas via illustration. Students will identify a challenge in their respective fields of study that can be overcome by their creative problem-solving abilities and illustration talents. The projects will be consistent with the work a freelance illustrator/designer would be challenged to create. At the completion of this course, students will be able to create comprehensive projects where the primary imagery is illustrative.
