Intermediate

This elective provides a basic introduction into product visualization using CGI (Computer Generated Imagery). Non-parametric 3D modelling is our main focus.

In the second semester we familiarize ourselves with advanced tools and methods for working with bitmap graphics, vector graphics and page layouts and focus on developing an efficient workflow. On completion of the course students should be able to tackle elaborate layouting tasks – combining techniques from Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign – and prepare simple documents for offset printing.

The third semester focuses on developing both a professional and efficient workflow and a deeper understanding of modern color management and prepress. On completion of the course students should be able to create complex page layouts, uniform grid systems and elaborate compositings and tackle advanced prepress challenges.
