Getting Started

Before diving right into projects, there are a few things we need to discuss first. First off, what is Graphics and what makes it different form other art classes? We'll also go through the course syllabus and learn all about the requirements and expectations for the next 9 weeks. Finally, we will discuss how Graphic Designers plan their work; the layout sequence. The links to the right will guide you through each of these lessons.
