FEED Graphic Design Certificate Level 2

This is a 16 week, part-time evening course delivered at our state-of-the-art FEED design studio at Millennium Point. The course is primarily a design course as opposed to a software course and will provide a sound introductory understanding of essential graphic design skills.

Designed as an introduction to the Adobe Creative Cloud software programs such as Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign, the course is delivered through a series of projects. The briefs will be chosen to allow for a range of skills to be developed within the broad subject area of graphic design. The course will concentrate on the development of ideas and solving problems to answer briefs: exploring typography, layout and semiotics to gain an understanding of vocationally relevant design from initial research and development through to pitching to a client. Outcomes could be branding, advertising and editorial design. The emphasis is as much about concept building as it is using industry standard Apple Macs and Creative Suite software.
