Course Content
In all aspects of graphic design application areas, the design problem is also put forward; the problem includes project design, development and implementation. Studies based on developing new graphic problem definitions and producing different graphic solutions are carried out. Art, artist, work of art, style in art, characterization, original creative thinking and its features are examined. Children's illustration in graphic design is examined in all aspects
Objectives of the Course
The student is asked to explore, develop, design and design a roadmap by posing a graphic design problem. The project is aimed at defending and presenting the resulting concept, product and media planning. Finding creative arrangement is explored. In an experimental environment with expanded boundaries, it tries to develop the student's ability to think as a designer, research, communicate, understand and define speech, finding solution-oriented researchers and visual thinking methods.
