Welcome to Class!

 

Welcome to Two Dimensional Design!

 

  The class revolves around creating a portfolio of images in Adobe Photoshop.  The College will provide you with an Adobe account so you can download Photoshop using your Albertus login at Adobe.com. 

Photoshop is installed on all publicly available computers at Albertus...The Library, Rm 114 in the TAG center and 315 Aquinas Hall.

The first week will be about getting up to speed in creating your accounts and getting your software image editing program working. 

You will complete 2 projects each week as listed on the syllabus linked in the upper right hand side of the blog.  If you are new to blogging, please watch the short video also linked in the upper right hand side of the blog on how to post to the blog.
Each project is introduced and one or more videos linked in the syllabus take you through each project, step by step.
