This term in Jr Designer we will work with both vector based artworks and Photo Compositing. A designer needs to have both skills to work with photos of products or from a model photoshoot and then combine them into a flyer, key visual, animated gif or meme. We will learn about some simple animations that we can do in order to create .GIF files, moving pictures or live photos as well as immersive photos for social media.

During the first half of the term we will focus on skill development while learning how to use the photo manipulation tools to create interesting composites and Vector based artworks. These small projects should make students familiar with the interface and online resources for use with compositing. In the later part of the term students will embark on their own project. Tools for online concept development will be used to help students plan and execute a series of polished final works. HS

Options for professional printing will be presented to parents after completion of the projects should you wish to join in our July gallery event.

Students work within Affinity Photo and will require access to Affinity Photo for this course.
