Emotive Graphics
This is a brief introduction into the world of graphic design, through hands on understanding of the workflow from ideation to execution. Participant’s will be creating graphics and placing them in a sequence of frames, in order to create an illusion of motion that expresses an idea, a quote, or a phrase. The final outcome will be in the form of a take away GIF.
The workshop will begin at 9 AM and will wrap-up at 5 PM. From 5 to 6 PM a review panel consisting of faculty members from the School of Architecture and Design will evaluate the work selecting the best three. These students will be awarded scholarships covering 10, 15, and 20% of the students’ tuition fees when they join the Graphic Design program at LAU.
