Digital Making

NC1080-01

This foundational class focuses on expanding and honing students’ digital content-creation, design, and art-making skills, through exploration of a wide range of software, concepts, and techniques. Topics include digital compositing of pixel-based images, vector design basics, time-based media best practices, introductory 3D design processes, and thoughtful use of AI tools. Each week, a new mode of making is introduced through technical demos, presentations, and viewing/discussion of work from contemporary artists and designers who employ digital practices and new technologies in their work. While expanding their creative toolkits, students continue to sharpen their skills and develop professional-level workflows and approaches to file and project management. 1:1 instruction is individualized and based on students’ specific needs and goals. Students opt into a handful of weekly exercises, and end the class with the presentation of a final project or work-in-progress based on one or more of the class units.
