Production artists and graphic designers use a variety of print, electronic and film media to create designs that meet clients’ commercial needs. Using computer software, they develop the layout and design of magazines, newspapers, advertisements, logos, and signs. Graphic designers develop promotional displays and marketing brochures for products and services, annual reports, advertising campaigns and develop signage systems or environmental graphics for business and government.
Students will learn effective use of color, typography and the basic elements and principles of design to make effective layouts, which meet industry standards. Students may choose to work toward a Copy Center Technician, Production Artist or Graphic Design Certification.
