Web & Graphics Design using G.I.M.P. (free Photoshop)
(Grade 6th~12th)
Walnut Campus: 10/20/13~1/19/14 (Sunday), 1:00 ~ 3:00 PM for 10 weeks
(Students must bring own laptop computers)
Design skills have become an integral part of today’s technology world. Most consumer-facing technology companies need art designers that also understand its application in web and mobile software. In this class, students will learn how to use G.I.M.P. (GNU Image Manipulation Program), an open source design program, for such tasks as photo retouching, image composition and image authoring. G.I.M.P. is just like Photoshop, but free of charge. It can be used as a simple paint program, an expert quality photo retouching program, an online batch processing system, a mass production image render, an image format converter, etc.
Our students will learn 2D design principals and apply them to G.I.M.P. to manipulate images such as combining, creating collage, creating special effects….etc. They will also learn how to design advertisement artworks, posters, mailers, web banners, web pages, game covers, DVD covers…etc., and design for different types of digital interface such as web and mobile apps. It is a great design program suitable for ages 11 and up for their digital art adventure.
數位美編(Digital Artist)在傳統產業與現代高科技業都擁有無法撼動的地位,一個產品能否暢銷常常取決於是否有美觀的設計,能夠在第一時間內就抓住觀眾的眼球。本課程將傳授2D平面設計原理,並教導使用免費的G.I.M.P.美術設計軟體,製作廣告、海報、產品包裝、網頁、智能手機介面…等。G.I.M.P. 為免費版本的Photoshop,能設計出一樣的專業效果。學員無須任何背景,但若擁有平面美術創作經驗,學習效果會更佳。
